Just for a bit Of fun really, but have you given your car a name. If so what Is and why did you pick that name. Most Of my cars all shared the same name and that was Betsy, not really sure Of the reason I choose that name, but my first car only cost £20 It was a 1951 morris minor. The car I drive now I just call evo, It Is a Hyundai coupe F2 Evolution.one Of only 1200, that were taken of the production line and sent to MSD(motor sports development) who made many changes to the front and rear spoilers, fitted highlift race cams, free flow exhaust system, plus many other mods and extras fitted. Each car that was done had an MSD plate put on It and each one were numbered.  |

Dave,
are you balanced or still a little shakey? ;D
My Dad had a Skoda and he went in the shop and said "have you got a wiper blade for a Skoda?" and the shop assistant said "yes, that sounds like a fair swap!" ;D

Evo Is now well balanced mate, as for me some say I have always been a bit shakey, but I think I'm just fine.

Carol was happy about me buying It as It does have seats In the back, as Carol and I have the front seats up close( me so I stand a chance to reach the pedals) there Is good leg room In the back. In saying that I'm glad John Impey did not ask for a lift home today, mind you I could have opened the sun roof and got him to stick his head out. |

If you find out let me know Bev ;)I think It must just come from us older generation men, not young ladies like yourself.  |

I'm liking your reply there Dave I suppose Betsy will remain the mystery woman! I've lived with her since I was 15 after all |
