I can't believe no one will tell me what to buy....

I have some money but I don't have my license yet.... So which should I be getting...?

Doesn't matter if you haven't got a licence. They won't catch you in this

Think I've got it....

I've always wanted to have at least one go driving one of these.... not sure about owning one. Boy wouldn't you get noticed around town.

What type of blue would you want - baby blue? sky blue? royal blue?

And have you checked that you can have blue in your state?

Let you into a secret... When I first met HIM he used to drive one of these... Called the Plastic Pig... It was a yellow van one.... EXACTLY the same as Del Boys, although of course Del Boy was some years away in the future...

They could be driven on a motorcycle license at the time (can they still?) so they were popular with teenagers in our village...

We used to go anywhere on his motorbike back in the day... Unless I was dolled up... Then I got treated to The Pig

Bless HIM....
