Yes, it's that Phil P from #WeirdCarTwitter, the one with a penchant for buying unreliable cars and the worst luck in keeping them running. May or may not like Espaces. Ex-TVR owner, with the financial scars to prove it. Rustival award winner!

Boot lock seems to work, driver's door not so much. Which at least means I can style it out when I go to get in the wrong side.

What became of yours? Mine admittedly looks better in photos than in the flesh, the paint on the roof especially is in bad shape, and the bumpers aren't great. But the biggest annoyance / disappointment was the discovery upon collection of a crack in the windscreen 😑

My dad as a motoring journo got to test both the Space Cruiser and Previa, and I got to briefly drive the Previa. As a child the Space Cruiser in particular was memorable thanks to its large rear sunroof and ventilation controls in the centre row. Saw an amazing one recently at Retro Rides Gathering

Haha, thanks Rory. I do love the wheels too, albeit I'll admit I wasn't initially convinced about the whitewalls.

Chris was struggling to keep up, and I was struggling to keep it in a straight line. The steering is, how shall I say, a little less than precise.

That post deserves a shot of you giving it the pre-inspection for me 😁
And thank you again!

Oh definitely. Although I'll admit I wasn't too sure on the whitewall tyres.

Admittedly I didn't know anything about this engine, but apparently has legendary status. Which is nice.
