Default OMG!! I bought solbergs bumper!!
Went out to the Richard burns foundation charity thing last night and walked away with peter solbergs front bumper from wales rally gb 07, fully intact with the number plates still attached! Worth 3 and a half grand!!! Wow ! Onl;y cost me £200 when the auction started, it is attached on my wall now so looks like a car has crashed into my bedroom! Lol, someone who was at the RB charity evening said they will try and get it signed by Solberg.

I guess it was a pretty stupid thing to spend £200 on but I’m pretty pleased with it

I'll give you £201 for it. Only thing better you could buy for £200 is 150 bottles of Corona.

Nice one....

I have the rear wing that came off Colins Sierra 3 door when he rolled on the Welsh in 1989, but at least that can be used as a shelf!

Cool

Of course, only other car people will say "Coool!!" - 'normal' people will just wonder why you have a car bumper in your house. But what do they know.
