Where are all the c5's ?
« on: 21, August, 2008 - 21:27:42 »
How many c5's are still out there ? if you are a c5 owner then how many have you got where are you, does it go and do you use it ?
I'll start, i have only one and live in King's Lynn, Norfolk, i have restored it this year and use it when i can, i wonder who's nearest to me ?
