The Mirth Mobile

1976 Reliant Scimitar - The Mirth MobileAfter a successful eBay car search campaign we’ve finally found the car for the rallies! Ok, in case you don’t know, I’ll roll it back a bit. Me and a few mates have decided to do a couple of banger rallies round Europe next year. The first step is to get a car.

So, all up to speed! We settled on The Mirth Mobile, well it’s like the car from Waynes World. A lot bigger though. Imagine the Ferris Bueller scene where he describes the car….queue music….

A 1976 Reliant Scimitar GTE 3.0L Manual. Only several thousand were made. May I present…the car!

Wispa Bar back in production

Wispa BarCadbury’s has bowed to internet pressure and is to re-release the Wispa bar. After about four years in oblivion an initial run of 23 million bars will be produced to see if the demand is there. I think they are going to go on sale at about 42p each.

I wonder what other “retro snacks” we can drum up? How about, bring back Marathon!
