Oh bugger ( another plastic pig owner here villawagen -- followed by a morgan with a vital bit missing :oops:

I've just realised that "Oh bugger" is perhaps not the right word to use on here just recently as the forum seems to be turning into a gay date and contact forum :roll: -- still never mind -- thats progress I suppose.

Bill --
who being a old fart still thinks GAY means happy -- well it used to once upon a time :shock:

Some classic cars here everyone, and some bags of sh1te!

My second car I had a sold to my boss (at the time) - it also had an oil leak and I didnt tell her untill the day of exchange. I swapped my Mark I Festa for a Mark II. Then upgraded to a Festa XR2 which I drove into the ground and sold it for more than I paid for it!!

Pete_D, mate youve had some cars there aint yu. Like the bit about Subaru boy racers. Volvo's what can you say about them, good sold cars they convert you from a boy to a man (thats a very way polite way of saying it)

I've now got a beemer and have been running on a flat tyre for 6 months and only found out when I had to service the bugger!
