We have a regular supply of decent scrappers. Struck a deal with a local scrap dealer who donates the cars, providing he gets them back! Good recycling! We have a much bigger, state of the art workshop where the higher level students progress to. Cars over there include a ZS180, a new mini & a year old Phantom donated by Rolls Royce.

Micra FTW.. my first car was a K10, blow the socks of any of the other popular starter cars (fiestas and novas etc)...

1235cc ( always bragged about that) and 5 speed box, mint car too, one of the ones i should never have sold !

Managed to blow the head gasket doing off the clock speeds down the M25 at reigate heading to junction 7 iirc (m23), pulled in to tesco at horley to find i had burst the heater matrix pipe...fixed that, then a week later the rad filled with oil and it blew the top hose...

Ahh those where the days.
