[Russ Cunningham]

A special thread! Q. What is a MK2 Jum?

[AMCO72]

I think you may have stumped Jum, Russ. Just give him time to look it up in his album. I'm sure the answer is on the tip of his tongue.
Seeing as I am not welcome on here, I am going to be as obnoxious and as obtuse as I possibly can..... You say whats new.....well I can tell you, you ain't seen nothin !!!!!!

[Russ Cunningham]

AMCO72! Sounds like a familiar song. You hum it and I'll say the words.

Really don't mean to stump Jum. It's just where I come from a MK2 could mean a Ford, A jag or a ?

[Rod Grimwood]

Russ, don't forget the Escort (MK1's were the real ones though)

[Oldfart]

I'm a fairly young chap so please explain? What is a Austin 7? Is Bruce the same Bruce Bayliss from down our way?

[jim short]

Sorry Russ i should explain ,Austin 7 was a 15hands high chestnut hack {horse} Jammie was driving a heard of black and white beaf cattle back home from his Dads runoff as most farmers had back those days.Bruce McLaren of McLaren Racing was testing his new Norton 750 in an attempt to understand why a car will nosedive under braking wher a motor bike does not..As I am shure you can imagine why the horse jumped the fence
