Monza

[Dieselicious]

Pictures from last year, when she was was in her prime and when she was last on the road.

She's a late GSE Manual, and the pick of my fleet.









And next to the Cav

I really do love the big battle barge cum sports coupes...

Being so rare, now makes them even more wonderful to see.

And white ones to me are the best !!

Congratulations on having such a sensational car .

Why thank you very much.

Got it 3 years ago now for £280 would you believe. Under 100k on the clock. Needed a tidy as It's been sat in a barn for a about 5 years.

Plus, at 25 years old, it's 3 years my senior

nice one! are you in the autobahnstormers club by any chance? might have seen your motor at billing as they had a lot of monzas there last year (including one rammed full of badges and toys and all sorts of sh1t the owner was trying to offload onto us!)

Oh!, I am so fu**ing jealous now! I had a Viceroy in the early '90s,, which for those who don't know was midway between the Carlton and Senator. I really wanted one of these but couldn't insure one back then. I saw some nice ones and some equally really bad ones through the dealer over the years. A good one of these would make me really happy, never thought about it until I saw this, now I'm gonna be dreaming of them again!

I'm the Treasurer.
I've got a Senny with a C30NE Gold-top (one day destined for this), plus the 4 Omegas aswell.
I like my Sixes!!

Didn't make it to Billing last year, (but I think I can guess about who it is you're referring ).
Was the only Monza at PVS that year though but it was pissing it down and I was on a stand demoted to the grass area at the back

Found one for you, planet!


Dieselicious... this is a lovely motor. When i owned my Mrk 1 Cavalier coupe I always fancied one of these. Love the shape.

[VauxhallGirl]

Stop it! I can't afford it and she would go apeshit if I bought another car, especially one with six cylinders!

My mates dad had a red one of these when I was at school always liked them

[humbucker]

theres two or three good examples of these on the bay at the moment, no doubt cars that are autobahnstormers staples. i do like them, like chunky GT calibras hahaha!

[cavy130sri]
