Heres my latest gossip!

My company can't afford to keep me on so bye bye job.

Thus, in order to cheer myself up, I am going to start myself a car fund. My tired old beast, or Battlestar Escortia as I named it (lol) needs to die. I need to my hands on £5,000 roughly. Donations welcome, PM me if you want to help out, every pound helps. and despite paypal's evilness i shall prevail!!!

I'm going to get something alot more sensible, a deisel *gasp*
Most likely a Mondeo 2.2TDCi ST (150ps) or a Skoda Octavia vRS Deisel (170ps)

Also thought about a high-mileage Alfa Romeo 156 2.4JTD (160ish, dunno)


So yeah. If anyone in the UK has a place or knows someone who needs new tills/registers, do tell, my line of work for the next month or so!!!

Why do you want such a large car? couldn't you work with a smaller engined hatch back?

The answer:

Because I'm a man.

I know you are too. But you don't drive yet and like canal street (not trying to be offensive) so you're not like to understand yet.

Larger cars + larger wheel base = better turning circle = ez as pie to park
Large boot
Lots of room for passengers
Excellent engine for fuel economy or fun driving
WINNER.

don't be mad :-(
mainly im trying to keep my chin up by buying a new car that's all LOL

meh, its your choice i suppose. We're looking at chopping in Dads Matiz for a slightly larger, more substantial car. Looking at a used Ford Fusion at the moment (European one)

My dad dont care about speed or looks. He wants it to last, and get from A to B. Thats it. We're considering it as a first car for me when I get there.

He wants it to last...
And he's getting a FORD? :P


Anyway, latest in my life is: I'm a carrier. I am now a carrier for this seasons flu virus. Not getting sick, just everyone else is. Always wanted to be like Typhoid Mary. :|

Hopefully it will die eventually so that I don't make everyone I meet sick.

I don't know about American Fords but every single ford that our family has bought has never gone wrong. Not once. Apart from the old Sierra, but dad did kinda outrun a BMW in it. And promptly killed the engine. But still, not a single ford has gone wrong for us. And thats probably 20+ fords in our family.
