I blame the credit crunch

As you all know by now, I'm currently spending an obscene amount of time perving over Mini Clubmans. And it was as I was doing this that I found another victim of the credit crunch.

Yes folks, not even The A-Team are immune to the financial and economic woes rocking the world at the moment. Not only have they had to downsize from their gas-guzzling Chevy van, they're having to sell their new means of transport too. 


At this rate I expect Mr. T will be whoring his jewelry on eBay soon. I pity the foo'…

Anyway, if you've ever dreamed of getting all like this…



…just click here and you can live the dream.

Awwww shit, I'm all nostalgic now. Maybe I should buy it?

  6. Thank you for that clip, I used to watch The A-Team all the time with my parents. Dirk Benedict...dreamy. Gotta love that theme song too.

  7. yes, thanks for posting the clip - we haven't seen that in ages! it's funny to think about Mr. T selling his jewelry on ebay...he can probably support the entire A-Team if he does...

  8. Cyberpete - To be honest I don't think you'd like it!

    The Projectivist - Great, isn't it?

    Inexplicable Device - How could you not notice the Cylon and Face's wry look!?

    And no, I doubt very much I'll be buying the A-Team Mini!

    Tara - It's an awesome tune, isn't it?

    Missy&Chrissy - Mr. T advertises Snicker bars over here now!

    WV: Swelen. Tee-hee!

  9. Why do you think I won't like it, because you don't want to give it to me?

    (tee-hee!)

  10. To be honest I'm not sure I'd like it now - I think it might've aged horrifically!

    Like IDV.

  12. I am not sure what I think of the mini .Does it look good or is it just plain ugly , the only certainty is its over priced

    OH I loves it. Buy it. I would totally Howling Mad Murdoch it for ya!

  14. What? Someone's never watched the A Team? Have I just stumbled across some strange parallel universe?

    Howling Mad Murdock was my favourite - although my mate Tracey was really crazy about him and had a pet golfball just like his.

  15. In my defense it aired on a channel we couldn't watch and it never ended up as part of the re-run schedule on other channels.

    I'm sure it's quite dated now but it would still be fun to watch.

    By the way Tim, thank you so much for introducing me to Lush. My face has never been this soft before. I feel like I was born again.

  16. Inexplicable Device - The one with the pentapeptides? Are you Nadine Baggot?

    Beast - Each to their own, but I luv 'em!

    Watch*Paint*Dry - Would you wear the wedding dress?

    M - I know! It was a vital par of my childhood! Did Murdoch have a pet golfball? He really was mad!

    Cyberpete - My pleasure! It's a tad expensive, but well worth it, I think.

    ReplyDelete
  17. It's not too expensive. And it's absolutely amazing. I can't stop touching my face.

  18. Da na naaa ne ne neeeeer!
    Da na naaa na na na na naaaaaa!

    Mmm. Lush. Also I used to love the crazy dude from the A-Team. Maverick? McClintock? Mack? Something starting with M? Anyway, the one Dwight Schultz played.

    Get the mini van!

  19. Cyberpete - Well it is over here!!

    T-Bird - Howling Mad Murdoch! I've just had a thought - they should remake The A-Team with Katee Sackoff as Face! That'd give Dirk Benedict a real complex!!
