antz Posted November 24, 2007 Report Posted November 24, 2007 does anyone ever get the feeling that they are fed up with all the shit they get from their old ford that they wanna sell up and get another one thats less cursed??? some days i love my car to bits but other days i think 'WHY YOU LITTLE PIECE OF RUSTED **** IM GONNA KILL YOU!!!!!!' then i feel like running outside with a for sale sign
Admin Vista Posted November 24, 2007 Admin Report Posted November 24, 2007 Nope, I never feel like that about it. I just accept the downtimes as the price I must pay for old skool enjoyment.

lainey Posted November 25, 2007 Report Posted November 25, 2007 Had a few problems with the fiesta lately but definatly wouldnt be parted from it, its worth all the ups and downs, althought at times my husband may feel differently
Stu_B Posted November 25, 2007 Report Posted November 25, 2007 I have 2 cars, a cortina that I keep making worse & finding more wrong with & an anglia that's been in the garage for 2 weeks & the bill keeps getting bigger & bigger as they find less & less to weld to... do I care? No!! I wouldn't have it any other way!
razersedge Posted November 25, 2007 Report Posted November 25, 2007 yes i no what you mean i have had one of those week central heating died washing machine packed up and car looked ike head gasket had gone mate was doing head and phones me up and says engine knackard 123 pistons are flaping around so new engine required and then the central heating dies for good this time so its cold and then the fiesta brakes decide to be one minute at the top and the next beyond the floor so now i've got to replace the master cylinder as well as the engine .....sorry about the rant but if the fiesta was mine i would have been out there with a 14lb sledge hammer ending its life in a very permant way but then i would have gone out and bought a mk1 cortina
