Yeah, lots of people had fun with Fermanagh registrations. There was a Range Rover floating about with BIL 10 on it, I suppose his name was Billy.

They never issued KIL ......

I had a 92 one myself, the last of the carburettor versions, it had a very fancy rev-counter dash, bulb failure module(handy on a Fiat), an absolute sow on fuel though, which I never got to the bottom of. I think one of the floats in the extremely complex weber carb was punctured, I flogged it on as it had me broke, a pity really as they're a very comfortable car to travel in with a lovely high driving position.

A mate of mine had a 73 Opel Kadette BIL 519, he wouldn't drive the Vauxhall version for love nor money( guess what side he was on?). I put rear brake shoes onto it and couldn't for the life of me get a decent pedal on it(which the new shoes were supposed to cure) until I copped on the bloody yoke had drums all round:o 20 minutes adjusting the front shoes and it was perfect, I hadn't seen front drums in donkeys years, even back in the 80's. That was one rough car, one careful owner.... The rest were all lunatics:pac:
