I've used my Cossie as a second car ever since i brought it over 6 1/2 years ago...
I took it off the road and put it in the garage for a winter the first year i owned it.. Was a bad idea...
Since then i've had it on the road all year round... I do 200 miles a week going to and from work but i have a diesel fiesta for that and it costs me peanuts...
Sometimes i get the bug and i just jump in the cossie and take that to work, Gives me back the buzz of why i brought it...
But currently it's having a ABS loom replaced so i'm stuck with the Fiesta for another week or so
