Oddly, the number plate is similar to my 77:
'69 - XTG 882H
'77 - XOO 852S
(OK... three letters... sort of similar)
Even more odder... the 8, 5 and 2's make up my birthday 28/5/82...
You may be right about the rear bumpers... it does look quite nice with
them off... but... it still looks like theres something missing...
Unsure of Poppy... I think I need to get to know this car a little better
- at the moment it still feels like a friend of a friend :) Although my
last one never really had a name and I had that for 18 months... Plus also
my sister used to have a rabbit called Poppy... mine was called Blackjack
by the way... and it was female... don't ask me why I called her that! I'm
not good with names... although I did suggest my brothers name...
Michael... after Michael J. Fox... having just watch Back to the Future on
telly...
