Right, folks - due to personal circumstances ,I've put my Fabia off road for a while . And in the meantime I'm running around in an old 97 Felly. And it takes me back to the old motoring days - days of my youth - and I'm loving it - best fun car I've had for years . Gearbox- hit and miss on anything above 2nd - mostly it's first/ second / third , then fourth , or if straight road - fifth . But -it don't complain . And Fun - I love it . Makes driving like it used to be - a challenge . And ,TBH ,performance wise -it would give the 1.4tdi a bit of a fright , so ,it's a bit quicker .

i still love driving the pickup.. it's the most fun car i've ever owned tbh... totally impractical but at least i can chuck all my scrapyard goodies in the back

Takes me back to driving ye olde BMC 11/1300 front wheel drives . ( Bit before most on here ) , but I'm sick of ABS/ EPS/ -JUST GET OUT IF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND LET ME ( AKA DRIVER) DRIVE . Next thing ,I'll find a pepsi dispenser in the engine compartment . :p

And I'm having nightmares about what we'll find under the WINGS -well blokes -we've all seen the ads -and everything female comes with WINGS :yes: :yes:
