It's Bouquet Juha

Updated

Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced Bouquet!)...

- It's Bouquet, spelled B-U-C-K-E-T
- Oh, Bucket!

The best one is where she's going to extreme lengths to show her brochures.

This scene is brilliant:



And the show even has an Austin Rover connection for David!

Indeed it does Juha, her husband Richard's Rover - a 'Ronda' 214 if I recall correctly.

You forgot Elizabeth's car, that magnificent 4-door Metro!

Whoops!

Don't let Steve see that photo - he'll have to sit down in shock!

David, you're right about the shock! Fancy calling the 'Bucket' Rover a 214! It predates the R8 214 and is either a 213 or 216, the predecessor based (rather heavily) on the Honda Ballade. I'll get my anorak!

The other shock is Juha calling a 5 door Metro a 4 door! Come on guys!

Glad we got Vitor up to speed. Cheers, Steve

4 or 5 doors, at least it's in a better state than Onslow's cars.

Me bad!... ...although I must admit I never did and still don't, have any interest in the 213s & 216s of that generation. Sorry Steve....

Anyway, to get this thread back on topic and to support Mark's image, here are a handful of further images of Ken Wood's 'Golden Wonder' MG Metro 6R4 - 'Britain's Noisiest Crisps!' - to keep you interested...

So, having reviewed these photos (thanks, David ) I think we can safely say that Ken Wood was sponsored by Golden Wonder.

Cheers, Steve

This livery would look so so nice on a 1/18 sunstar 6R4. One of my favourite 6R4 liveries (along with 50 odd others )

I think he just might have been Steve.

I agree with you on that Nicky - should look ace as a 'big un'!

I reckon every 6R4 diehard has 50 favourite liveries!

And once we have those 50 liveries, we can move on the next batch of 50!

Too true

Decals are ready, next phase, building the models, testing the decals and going to production.

Good to see you got all decals done
what was the little decal on the left hand side of the car you asked about?

'XXXXXXX SIGNS' , Anyway, you need a microscope to read that

Fantastic, Vitor.

I'll have a set as soon as you make them available. Cheers, Steve
