Guess what I missed in the work can due to being on the bloody motorway...

 

on the plus side, max 6months and it'll be getting swapped out on the fleet replacement. new ones seem to brand new Couriers instead of Connects. load bay is roughly the same size in both, but the courier has a flatter face. looks like a Fiat Doplo actually..

 

i had to go to Dublin today, to our main HQ. I hate having to go up there.

but, the trip does mean i now get to play ALL the rounds of the game!

 

good bye Connect 

 

Hello Shiny new Courier. You have a flat, fat face, but a nicer cockpit..

 

 

lowest delivery odo i think i ever seen!

 

 

 

and so, Round 1!!

GTI's just hit 36:

 

 

I've been toying with the idea of selling her.  Trouble is, I then go out for a nice drive, like just now, and decide not just yet 🙄

 

WBAC keep emailing me, telling me they 'urgently' want it, offering £16,200.  That's good, 'coz it makes me think 'Well you ain't having it for that.  I'd rather it was sat on my drive'

Snap!

Even my low mileage* Vectra has surpassed yer Fiesta.

 

That being said, it has averaged about 90 miles a day since October...

 

 

In other, Fabia related news:

 

 

It's somewhere over 94k now.

Hit the first notable milestone in my (new-ish) to me Octy the other day. 

For f***s sakes man...

 

 

(Nah I'm not cleaning that dash until the good weather is back...)

Currently traveling hence Km not miles. And in case anyone is concerned, I got my passenger to take the photo.

 

Standard check in.

Missed the 120,000km mark on the Autobahn.  😞

 

 

So got 120021 instead

hoping to change the hidden status..

ehhhh... @ColinD @cheezemonkhai

Sorry to bother you, but i cant remember who on the mods team is still reasonably active. 

I stuck a post in here earlier, and its showing as hidden pending approval?

bit weird..

 

edit -

added Cheezemonkhai as a tag, and i edited the post to take out the phrase that may have tripped the auto block?

i reckon it was my original first sentence, which was the sentiment, but a different phrase that may have flagged it as a post by a minor 🤷‍♂️

Been great, done a heck of a lot to it and have it setup for the long term nicely. So that can only mean one thing.... Time for another car (which will be here shortly). I've grown to detest the process of selling cars to the point I just don't, so all 3 insured and the bike too. Have space for a few more yet around the house.
