What is Santa bringing you for Christmas this year

[austinpowers]

After years of wanting a Trabant I finally have one ;D. Here's a few pics from the web site that it was advertised on.

It even has a tow bar,optimistic maybe but might be useful .

Now if you look carefully next to that large thing,you know the battery, you can just about see an engine, all 600cc of it.


Mint interior as it has been looked after and always kept in a garage and never driven in bad weather.

Now the only down side is that it's in Hungary. We bought it to use when we are out there on holiday visiting family. So I won't get to use it till March next year, but my wife's cousin picket it up for me yesterday and he said it drove very well and is in mint condition . So I am a very happy bunny, so what is Santa bringing you for Christmas this year.

I have made a request to my wife and kids this year to refrain from the usual tat of chocs, socks, booze etc and buy me something useful like a set of coil over springs or conversion tubes

[Fungus]

Some panels for my mini :') rear valance, boot floor, sills etc...

[ims]

a new larger mig I'm hoping

[THE_Liam]

An XBox and a new MIG welder

[hamps]

I just bought a new 42 inch led tv and a Apple MacBook pro but there are still about ten for me under the tree

Hopefully some retro goodies

Car wise, I'm hopefully getting a new stereo for the Polo. The early 90s pull-out Blaupunkt cassette radio just doesn't cut it, especially since it doesn't work all that well!

[Dazstap]

When I suggested some shiny things for the car I was met with a look that said "but seriously, what do you want?"

Coilovers, chrome goodies, even engine parts for the rebuild. No? Socks and books it is then. So long as my Retro Cars subscription is renewed.

Hahaha, I'm hoping for a replacement head unit too as the Blaupunkt cassette radio in my Golf doesn't work either

I'd love a set of wheels too to replace the 13 steels that I'm currently rocking but somehow I don't think Santa or my missus is going to bring me those.

[Brian Damaged]

A 1Tb standalone hard-drive so I can continue taking pics of tasty metal and sharing them with you guys.

Ohhh...and more money towards my next Budget/tat/retro (or a combination of all three) purchase. ;D

[Roobeh]

Midi Keyboard
Mafia 2 for xbox

;D

[sheffieldcortinacentre]

"corvette in the barn" book latest in the lost & abandonded cars series a must read.

[crazymonkey]

haha Roobeh I saw that model on ebay as well, so nearly bought it but then remembered I don't have any money

Oh well my parents bought me an impact wrench, need one for working on my bikes and will come in handy on cars as well.

[bmcnut]

steering wheel and pedals for GT5 on PS3. I'm not sure that its going to matter what dross they put on tv.

[PhilA]

Spark plug wires.

The wife already got me GT5 and Santa let me have it early.

That'll do me.

I've hit that 'mid-life' point and have already bought a convertible. So ... I'm buying a bike. But NO lycra.

The current thinking is a Ridgeback Platinum, but they're not available until early Jan.

[Colin]

New 46" 10 drawer bottom box with butchers top block. Just need to sort out some space in the garage

[Deleted]

I've asked for "Big trak" and some slot cars!

However i'd really like it if Santa could bring me a VW Bora TDI and take my Sierra to a good home.

[Diabolu]

An engine!!! Wooohoooo!!! (Keep your eye on my build thread for details )

[Dom]

A battery booster/compressor
Toolset to keep in the car.

Maybe a beaded seat cover

Stop me getting hot and itchy against the canvas in the summer.

And really exciting ideas like a new wiper blade or sparkplugs!!!
