Vauxhall - Pristine 1974 Vx Victor with 86 miles on the clock - Robin O'Reliant
My friend had a Mk1 Cortina with a bench seat and a column change. The gear linkage was shot to hell and only someone who drove the car every day had a hope of finding the correct gear. We left it outside a pub one night and when we came out it was parked on the pavement a hundred yards down the road where the thieves had given up and abandoned it.
