In 2005: I'll endeavour to get the '32 Ford Model B back on the road... ... sort the deal to get that Mark Three Zephyr... ... buy a Hyundai Stellar/late Toyota CROWN (meanwhile, TopTaff wants a Mark One Transit camper AND a Landie Series 2 lwb pick-up or early HiLux)... ... and sort out quite a few thousand '70s and '80s car brochures...

I RESOLVE TO LEAVE E-BAY THE HELL ALONE!
I ALSO RESOLVE TO DO MORE WORK AND STOP SLACKING OFF AND SPENDING ALL MY TIME ON HERE!
(there's quite a strong probability that both of these will be broken by Jan 4th)

That's why I learned in a Volvo, they don't break down! Plus I wasn't sure the cage and buckets in my Imp would inspire confidence in the examinor, ie why do you need so much safety gear, is your driving really that bad? ;D ;D ;D

Funnily enough the first ever car i wanted was a Volvo 240, still one of my most fave cars so much so i wanted one as my first car untill i decided id need shares in shell to run at and would probs fail every manouver (turn in the road, parallel park) in a 1.9 ton 240 estate lol

They're not actually too bad in fuel, you could manage between 25 and 30 mpg if you didn't drive too much like a loonie, which is probably why I can't get Volvos to be so fuel efficient!!

i personnaly find it easier to park f*cking bohemoths. ;D tried to park sallys golf when i lived in newquay. totally struggled,threw the toys out of the pram and proceeded to "abandon"it. when i got out and looked at the space you could have fit a limo in the hole. my merc wagon is a big motor an i can put that where you couldnt get a cigarette paper ;D ;D ;D
