Got another car

while i spend hours grating my knuckles trying to fix my van ive ended up buying a fiesta(p1_thumbdown) i know its a horrible car! anyway, once ive fixed the van, what should i do with the fiesta?

We ive got a Nova (boy racer car) which im keeping till my minis on the road then im gonna sell it to get some money!! So i would sell it when ur minis on the road like im gonna do

i had a nova - it absolutely rocked. i was invincible in that thing. there was no metal (which is why it ended up in the great scrap yard in the sky), it was all filler. people moved out of my way when they say me coming i can tell you! mind you that still holds true now - and its all attitude.

its a pain in the ass trying to fit an new radio into a nova, there no room and uve got to take the glove box out and pull the wires behind there so the radio will fit!! it took ages. Also mine had grey paint on the roof from appledore shipyard from when they painted and it was to windy and they t-cut the car and when to far into the undercoat so now i got a red roof with white bits!

Scrap it.Its the best thing you can do to them.

how very dare you!

had no trouble with stereo fitting. got it off a mate at uni, and her dad was rubbish at car servicing. he thought he was good, but he just ripped out things inside the car he didn't think were necessary - like the parcel shelf, glove box etc

i learnt filtering in that nova, around leicester. i discovered if you want to change lanes - put your indicator on and go - people move out of your way when you drive an old, derelict looking car!

I thought  it was your driving.

that's how i learned my particular style of driving - old cars in leicester!!

You said it.

i think the key word there was STYLE, and i won't hear otherwise!

Is that what you call it.

too right! and now i drive a classy car - (although temporarily lisa's which could do with the wing mirror tightening up coz i really don't need a view of the floor!)

Well tighten it up then.

i know, i know. but lisa's car isn't well equipped like mine - it didn't even have a duster in it to clear the windows, which steam up more than mine, and the rear view window strip thingys don't work as quickly as mine, so it certainly doesn't have a screwdriver in it and when i get home from work its dark!

what do you expect when you are borrowing her mini

We found that with our old Toyota, which has sadly gone to the big car park in the sky.

my nova was long overdue its place in the great scrap yard in the sky - but it was sad to see it go. i slid round many a roundabout in that car - always good for a giggle.

Its that why you were so good on the skid pan then.

yes - lots of prior experience!
