no chance dont sell it mate cuz the bird wants u 2... its a way of life having a fast ford in the garage even if its drove once a year... but thats why i love them for the thrill and the pleasure u get that only a turbo comeing on boost can give..!

October. Tucked up for the winter at the moment and certainly won't be seeing the road until April (and that's assuming there's been no frost / ice and they haven't gritted the roads again........... )

won't be dictated to about my car mate...... if any ex had put money into my car then they'd have a say - but seeing as I've paid for everything it's fuck all to do with them and I won't have them telling me to sell my car !!! Simple really !!!

If you can't beat them - join them. Winter is best time of year for driving, we all wait for snow here


And then you just go sideways all the time

thats the spirit our cars are main part of our life.. its a way of relieving stress u dont want a woman telling u what 2 do with the car..if it was soo much of a issue with my girl id leave my car at my brothers or grans house and not say a word 2 the missues about it.. thats if i cudnt be botherd with a argument.. but when uv spent so much money on something and u know that if u sell it ur not going to get anything back on it.. jeez im gettin emotional now lol!!!!! and happy at the same time
