As for the cabbie, it sits outside now - my garage has been taken away from me
The people that own it are moving
got one in the garage which is the fiesta and the turbo is on the drive but im not worried about it being stolen as its completly stipped out at the minute and it wont start cause the spark plugs are out too!

So what happens if the weather men says its gonna be a nice day, you take the car out somewere, say a show, but starts rainning
Do you suddenly stop the car and get the cover out and wait for it to stop
Don't ask - I don't know

I've had her 11 years now and done 10k miles, the vast majority of that done in the first 3 years.
Maybe it does seem 'odd' to others but as I said - it suits me.
I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
