I know, I know. A nice sensible 3 door hatch.... Still faster than a Golf or an ST. :D/

'twas a bargain so I couldn't say no! I'm taking the approach buy cheap(ish), mod later...
 
O/S headlight on my EP3 has gone temperamental since last night. Side-light comes on but the dipped headlight only comes on after a gentle tap.

Poor girl knows she's going somewhere else... :smt010

Tell me about it! I told my car that it was going to live with my mum and it broke down for three weeks. After spending some money on her and giving her some TLC I reassured her that she could stay and not a problem since.

To be fair your cars probably a bit upset that she's being replaced by a younger fatter model with a fat ass!
 
Thought the Focus was quicker? Either way I think you and TypeRiter should have done a swap lol shame you decided after he did.
Are you going to tinker with the new one? Apart from the LSD?

Just got back from the test drive and it's as sweet as a nut. :smt023

I had meant to take the camera but forgot in the rush out of the door so these are off the dealer's site, so excuse the dodgy quality, and where I've chopped off the dealer url etc.

Rear windows are tinted which I think looks :cool: on a Silver FN2.

I didn't pay the screen price either, substantially less than that tbh.
 
Ordered some new forum graphics off Mook. :cool:

Starting to get a bit excited now... :p
 
Not long now then Loxy!!! :cool: Looks a cracking car mate. :)

I went back to work today and my little lad [7 yr old] doesnt go back to school til tomorrow.

Out of his own pocket money, he went out with his mum and got me a Matchbox FN2 in silver to cheer me up and put on my desk :D

He says - I know its a newer version than yours dad, but I expect you'll get one of these next. :lol:

Let us know what you think of the new beast. :twisted:
