Well ... I can't say nowt. I wrote off one each of the fiats, the scenics, and the mk2gti's ... All at below speed limit mind you, one with black ice, one by evasive action from oncoming t**t, and one thanks to a blow out ... but the missus doesn't mention any of that

Like this game Passed my test in 1996 and actually have a very short car history as I hate selling off the memories! 1972 VW Beetle (Frances) 1983 VW Mk 1 Golf GX (just before the 5 doors became popular for Euro look) (Lizzy) 1996 VW 16V Polo (Mena) 1976 VW Late Bay (Landyn) 2005 Mazda 6... owned for 3 months until the piece of **** self destructed 2005 VW Mk5 Golf GTi (Poppy) And yes they all have names and hence why they are rarely sold! Bumped the Mk1 Golf which was a little frustrating as it was a great little car! Trying to add another one to the list, but pre-xmas is a daft time to look for a car to buy.
Yep fords were the car in the seventies of course this was the one we all wanted and then the Mexico or 3ltr Capri
Used to borrow my mums brown 1500 in the early 80s when I only had the van. I tried for hours to get her not to buy it but it turned out to be really good and no I wasn't on drugs at the time.
I inherited that Allegro from my Dad when he bought a Maestro back in 1985, that just kept going and going, got rustier too mind but that didn't stop it!
