Title: NGC - buying a new to me car
Post by: ScepticalScotty on April 06, 2023, 12:25:53 PM
End of the line for the Focus - done 195600 miles and its being taken for scrap next week. It's been a very good car, but things are starting to happen a bit too often now. Lots of rattles. Stuff stopping working. Iv'e been a Ford person since I was a toddler - you were either born Ford or Holden, and I was born into a Ford family.

Replaced by a 2014 Skoda Fabia TDI 1.6 in the same yellow as those V7s have - I call it "burn yer eyeballs out" yellow. Black roof and wheels. People will definately see me coming!  :grin:

Sounds like the mirror image of the taxis in Argentina...we used to call them Bumble Bees when I lived in Buenos Aires.
