Default In a blue fiesta diesel?

M40/A40 - Wycombe to central london and back!!!!

ooh! Suits you Sir!!!

Ignoring other scoob owners in petrol garages out of shame, just cos you were in a PIMP MY RIDE UK mobile

Still, I bet its quicker than the other blue thing you normally drive

Now, whats his name?........erm..........hang on.............. is it..... Swiss roll?! Swiss Cheese, Swiss chris?

Or, could it be......................Swiss Tony

you cheeky begger

ok i wasnt expecting such a class car for my coutesy car but that was nasty !!
Diesel
No power steering
No cup holder for my morning coffee
Stereo didnt work
and just typical pulled in behind a lovely black 04 sti at shell garage in cressex and he just looked at me with pity
But the upside is when i got into mine after the work, boy does the courtesy car make you appreciate your scoobie even more...very clever
oh and i nearly got it to 80mph (yes it was downhill and had a following wind )
Btw, when you werent looking, i had a look at the amount of **** on your pc mate and it was shocking.

You are a filthy man so go and wash your mouth out

UPDATE UPDATE

Yes i am back in this beauty !!
I could pretend that i lost my keys to my scooby on purpose and went to all that trouble and expense just so i could ride this car, but you caught me out
It is my new ride
I had a few scary moments yesterday coming into roundabouts in my normal fashion and from now on have decided to stick to the inside lane until i pass my advanced ford driving lessons

have adapted to my new car and so for climate control i open the window and for ICE i have my ipod with me.
might be going to halfords soon as i think a ripspeed gear **** would be just perfect

and just for you cliff here she is in all her beauty.

The Honda owner is more likely to make better tea....It's a know fact that old people drive Hondas and old people make good tea

I'm sure if you ask Ian's mum nicely she will make a lovely cup of rosalee for you very nice young man !!!

So my 3rd day of pure ford power and even though I am adapting to the new ride, nothing will make me buy a ford EVER
(but some people seem to think Focus's are ok for some reason !!)

It really makes me appreciate the small things in life, like power steering, central locking, water that comes out the windscreen jets etc etc
but hey making the best of it

just signed up for the ford fiesta forums, if you cant beat them join em
got loads of advice on how to mod it so far.First mod suggested was put some diesel in it

updates will be coming soon
