Apart from the gearbox going on the old car whilst fetching a bargin 1.2m dish that cost £14.50 the new car has done nothing but cost money so far First, a towbar, then the electrics for the tow bar, all done by yours truly to save money, but now the bloody airbag warning light has decided to come on and stay on Looks like a trip to the auto electricians for a diagnostic :'( __________________ *VIRGIN, STOP SENDING ME JUNK MAIL.*

The duff ones have the word "Ford" on the front. :roflmao: Sounds like an expensive time for you, though Still, life is swings and roundabouts. Personally, I prefer the slide.

My first car was an 850cc mini. It would do 0-60 eventually - the first time I tried it I ran out of road to accelerate and it was the longest straight in the area!
I eventually clocked it at around 25 seconds :roflmao:

ALl the exterior trim fell off on a storm lashed trip from Staffordshire to south Wales :clap:
