She's beautiful Bobby - Congratulations.  ;)

Hope your Dad will back to 100% soon.,.. :)

Cheers for that, no doubt he will see your message next time he goes online.  ;)

My children cannot understand my fascination with 131's.

Bobby, yours seem very keen on them.

My boy loves 131's and was so upset when the green one went.

My dad had 5 brothers and 2 sisters of which all of them except 1 sister were driving 131's in the 80's, it was a sight to see all parked together. All of my cousins including the girls and my own sister know about 131's and know how cool they are. My wife is a newbie but is getting there.  ;D

My wife once said about my silver 131 Sport: "feels like a bus and drives like a tank" or was it "feels like a tank and drives like a bus"  :-[ ::) She hated it and still does; she just cannot understand why anyone would like such a car  :-\  My daughter used to like the silver Sport and always claimed it'll be hers when she grows up. She even told me off once for not looking after "her car" well enough!

But now she's getting more like her mother and says "it's TOO noisy"! But hey, it's a bit like my wheels; I don't care what people think ....  ;D ;D

Bobby, congratulations on the beautiful little girl and the almost as beautiful Volumetrico.  :D Very sorry to hear about your dad. Please pass on my regards and wish him a very speedy and full recovery.  

Just one small discrepancy in that story Theo....

Monica considered Dudley to be hers......but it's actually Hugo that is "TOO noisy" and in fact she's probably right as Hugo IS a lot louder than the earlier car. :)

Bobby, congratulations Sir on the arrival of your new bundle of joy! 8) Kids are great when they are small as they go to bed when you put them there - my kids are now usually still up when I go to bed :-\

Sorry to hear about your Dad. Please pass on my best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Luckily all my kids share my 131 'illness', and each has chosen one to be left 'when I die'! ::) Kids are such caring creatures  ;D When I suggested to my youngest last year that my orange Special was being trailer away because I had sold she sobbed  :'(, and I mean literally. It took me a good while before I was able to pursuade her that it was being taken to Essex so that it could be put back on the road. 8)

Very true  :-X and there's no "probably" about it  ;D

Nice little girl Bobby, great!

Best wishes for your father.

Greetings, Ela, Eliana & Albert

Congratulations Bobby,

So Hugo is louder then a standard Sport :o :o :o

I found my standard (ish) Sport a bit too loud.

Doesn't the Silver with the Black Wheels on the Sport look nice. Orange cars always IMHO looked better with the Silver Wheels.

Cheers again chaps ;)

Great pics Theo, the carbs on the green one use to frighten my lad when I use to start it and he would run off crying :)

Hugo sounds lovely and is just how the 8v should sound in a Sport!
