Apologies Ian, Not aimed at you at all, my mistake.

Again apologies,

Have you ever owned a Citroen, Beetle or Minor?

I am always amazed at how somebody attacks another's interest in cars
just
because they do not like them. Everything has its place and if we all
like
the same thing it would be very boring. Part of our motoring heritage
being
preserved is good whether it is more common or more exclusive. I
personally
would not like to own a Triumph TR6 or an Austin Healey 3 litre, but I
would
not rubbish your choice of car, and may well admire the car because
somebody
has taken the time and care to preserve it, and you should be more
accepting
of others choices.
I am sure the owner of the Minor stolen is very distressed and enjoyed
owning that car and it's merits.

Admirable sentiments - now direct them at the prat who was rubbishing
the Minor, not at a poor sod like me who actually owns a Beetle and a
2CV, all right?
