Exactly why you should not post Street View Images. Any one interested? in your car or one like it now knows where there is one.
I think it is almost as bad as displaying Credit Card details

My old 420G starts rain or shine, but then I maintain & repair my own vehicles.
I restored the 420G myself. :D

Good for you!

A group of mates and I turned down the 'opportunity' to have a 420G to restore quite some time ago. Sometimes I still wish we'd taken it!

I'm now on my third V6 Mondeo. They'll do the most astonishing mileages. :D

To be fair, it won't fit in the garage, and it spends more than half the nights somewhere else anyway.

Hi Folks. :fadein:

At the moment i have a Ford Mondeo Ghia Estate,lovely car never let me down and if i drive it carefully which i do most of the time i can get close to 40mpg which i think is'nt too bad for a 2.0litre petrol.I work as a self employed courier so my van is a bright red Ford Transit,again never let me down in the 2.5 years since she was delivered and in that time we've done over 200,000 miles together.

Regards~Thomas Telford. :fadein:
