I've won the Jagwaaar!  Stay tuned for the inevitable tales of woe.

Unfortunately it's all over for the 75; I drove it through a flood and it ingested a load of water.  It wasn't very deep water, but there's a problem with the intake on these cars - the 'shannon tube' rots away which has the effect of putting the intake right at the bottom of the engine bay: I didn't know about this until I buggered it up.  There's zero movement in the crank even with the plugs out, I suspect bent rods.  A LOT of water came out when I removed the air intake :( It wasn't an expensive car and it's always been one-big-bill away from the weighbridge, but it's annoying when I'd put a new MOT on it a couple of days beforehand!  I've donated it to another 75 owner on Autoshite, on the understanding he makes it disappear from my drive. Now I want a Jaaaaaaaag.  I missed out on a very cheap XJ6 'cos I was too slow (Autoshite again), but today I hoofed the VFR across many counties to look at one that's currently b...

But every 7th night it's a Blood Moon - meaning a horde of particularly aggressive dead folks turn up.  And you get bigger hordes each time. This game features real physics, so it's quite possible for buildings to collapse if sufficiently damaged, and the hordes were doing this on such a scale I was spending days shoring it up.  I had to move out of this neighbourhood. So I started on a purpose-built fortress -the terrifying Castle Lawrence ! Ideally located in...
