Calling the bus and coach boys!

Post by Madcav » 05 Sep 2009

Someone I don't know has asked on the net where they can an ECU for a 1984 Leyland Olympian.
Any ideas please? Cheers.

I did have one somewhere...
Might have binned it now, but shouldn't be hard to come by one, we had a fucking fleet of them until recently..

Clearly the dude needs some mental help though! Winners get VR's!

Cheers mucker! If you come across one please let me know and I'll give him your number if that's ok with you or can ask him for his so you can contact him.
Like I say don't know him from Adam, just found a request on a forum I use today.

It'll fare just the same if in green. The stupid twats are still killing each other off, :x albeit on a much smaller scale.

Of total Bristol RE production, more were lost in Ireland through bombing than anything else at any time ever.
Sad really, although the Ireland spec RE's had fucking hidious bodies, not as cool as the ECW bodied ones so no great loss I guess...

I think they've lost interest TBH. Most of it is either out and out criminals hiding behind the die hard sectarians, or the very small splinter groups that still exist.

The son of a friend of mine was/is? in special forces; He says they know who they all are, but it's thought that it would cause more ttrouble to kill them all off than just leaving them starved of weapons and funds and monitored.

Which makes the point that euthanasia was considered 8)
