Extendy aerial

Post by Lucky »

Perhaps a bit unlikely I know, but anyone got one? I dunno if they come to bits, I could maybe get away with just the mast if so... you know, the bit that generally gets snapped off by low-forehead drunken neanderthal types?

Failing a secondhand one, where would I find such a thing new? Any ideas?

genuine 1st gen aerials aren't easy to come by.... Dibs had a year long quest to try to get one for his car...
There aren't many 1st gens being broken for spares at the moment either...

A few years back I was forced to source one from Mazda in my Missus's quest for originality. Actually I think she liked to try and beat the yobs in their little euroboxes away from the lights. Gus always got the drop (though since they tended to have "No Fear" stickers and a complete disregard for any speed limits they would have won out over a distance).

Anyway I think she liked to give them an 'up yours' politely with the aerial as she got in front.

Oh Yes Nik.....it was around £170.......for a bloody aerial. Still working - though much more sedate under my hands.
