Right idea,wrong car. They made the Reliant Scimitar sports car that was quite well regarded in its day. https://www.heritagecarinsurance.co.uk/ ... mitar-gte/

Correct, AC/Thundersley Invacar...AC built the Ace, the chassis of which was used by Carroll Shelby of Ford in the US to create the AC Cobra. The Invacar was built for the government, which owned them and leased them out to disabled drivers until 1977

Yes it was a DHSS Benefit.

Apparently a number exist in private ownership and can be driven today.

Quote: MorePlaymakersNeeded "How many consecutive games have Widnes lost, and two of the last three have been to championship sides. Do they deserve to be in superleague?'"



1. 19 I think


2. Correct


3. Not with on-field performances.

There's no chance of that. The Council own the Stadium and make money renting it out to all and sundry.


You won't find many Widnes fans who are glad they have it!

It's going to be dug up this year and replaced with a grass one as they will get more money by having Everton's and Liverpool's women teams play there.

Incorrect. It's being replaced with a more modern artificial pitch.

Sad for me really.
I'd prefer our 'noisy neighbours' over Leeds for sure.

I think she’s already sung the first verse and is halfway through the chorus.
Not looking at all good for Widnes.

They're gone, they need a miracle to finish 6th never mind getting to the MPG. I've said it before I really hope they come back, feel for the fans it's not been good for thgnm for a while but it's going to get worse before it gets better.
