View Full Version : What has Leon bought?

Okay, so we know that Leon has bought a new car, to prove it he posted this dance (http://www.crazydiamondmedia.com/misc/Dance.MOV) :eek: and set out the riddle below for us to guess from...


I'll put you all out of your misery.
First Part) When I grow up, I'll have a man sitting on my back, beating me with a stick. But for now I'm too young. Alternatively, it's a question of arms.
Second Part) My first is in trees and plants but not in tables or metals. My second is of iron but not of wood. My last is a surprise.

I know the answer but I'm sure that others are desperate to know whether it is some piece of wedgy plastic crap or something old and japanese and RWD.

Seeing as the other thread about a non 200 car ( :confused: ) was closed please post your guesses below in this thread instead.

I'll give you all a further clue - Bay City Rollers ;)

:D

I'm sticking with the Sappora! There's a right nasty looking one parks up the road from me and it looks suitably wedge.

JB you're a nasty old man.

It is indeed a Mitsubishi Sapporo - hopefully I'll be picking up at the weekend, just leaving messages on the guys phone at the moment...

ratdat
17-08-2004, 08:14
That's class, Leon :thumbs: Looks well tidy. My mate has a Sapporo with a Rover V8 in it which he's had since the mid 80's. I liked that silver one at JAE...

They have tartan seats I think... maybe that's the connection :confused:

Aitch

I have to confess that green one isn't the one I'm getting. Mine is silver :thumbs:

Keep leaving phone messages for the seller - still waiting for a reply :mad:

Leon

What you mean is macho, masculine yet at the same time strangely alluring, making you want to touch it and look all day long.

That's what you meant, isn't it?

:D absolutely, that is exactly what I thought. "macho, masculine yet at the same time strangely alluring," I thought "making me want to touch it and look all day long." :nod:

amazing, you took the words right out my mouth :nod:

Leon
17-08-2004, 19:06

Tartan seats, roof mounted seatbelts, no B-pillars - that is so damn :cool:

And it's not plastic or wedgy either - result :thumbs:

John Bennett
17-08-2004, 19:28
That looks alright actually.... :) Certainly nicer looking than the that XT.

Hope it's a good runner.

So you sold the Prelude then?

R.Sendout
