We had one of those! eeek:
My sister and I used to sit in the back and whack on the side to make the ears come out when we went around a corner! lol:

I'm fairly sure the reg was XCG 369 - daft the stuff you can remember... noooo:

We had one of those! We lived in a rented flat and I always wanted to scrap the car and keep the seats cos they were sooooo comfortable. Column change... much more friendlier! redface:
