'm not keen on most modern cars. Don't do anything for me at all, but like anything that's got a bit of character to it.

Well the Escort I was looking at turned out to be a scrapper.
I'm thinking of a Mk1 Capri now, did get offered a Herald but after consideratoion decided against it, quite a few owners say there not the safest things to drive around in nowadays as the brakes are totaly pants and other stuff.
Trouble with being stuck out here on the edge of the world is everything thats for sale is bloody hundreds of miles away and I can't get to see them

Don't people in mid-Wales sell their cars then Borgy?
Mike is getting a new car (new to him!) and we got to get rid of the old one - it's a Citroen BX19 diesel, brilliant engine but the rest?
Dented on all 4 corners, radiator leaks, blower doesn't always work, and the drainage channels for the sunroof are blocked so all the water ends up inside, on the floor in the back!
Reckon we'll have to pay someone to take it away!

Also I guess the population density is much lower so there are less cars anyway. Thats what I always notice when I travel to Wales!
Except on the A465 from Swansea to Merthyr Tydfil which always seems to have all the cars in Wales on it - mostly standing still in front of me! Not so bad when I was biking but I'll have to try and avoid it now I'm a triker.

Borgy, if you're desperate for a mark 1 Escort there's one parked outside a local auto-factors here everyday. Belongs to a young lad who works there I think. Mettallic leaf green. Quite tidy.
