My other ride

Is that one of those hidesously expensive jobs, you know the ones that cost more than a decent second-hand car?

Yes Sir I’ve paid less for a lorry before now than I paid for that beauty It would probably retail here for £4k but lucky me got it picked up in San Jose by a mate & it stands me in at £3k which is more than I paid for my last Transcon! Pity I’m too old & heavy to do it justice, but I keep trying

My ‘joyride’ also stands me considerably more than I’ve paid for a good few of the trucks I’ve run over the years, none have been as fast though !!!

this now, sadly the astra bit the dust,

1996, honda civic 1.6ls mb1 automatic, it certainly wipes a few smiles off faces at the traffic lights, picture, duelcarrage way, lights on red, saxo revving engine, wanting to race, lights go to amber and i’m the other side of the junction already
