My #2 son started on a Mk2 Fiesta (my "station taxi") then had his own Mk4 Fiesta for several years to get a good NCD. Got rid of that this year and bought an SLK350.

Brilliant. Welcome to the forum from me.
AND we know his wife has a foot fetish, loving this too, great addition to the forum Cozza

Thumbs up

We have decided on car

We are buying an Audi A8 4.2 "R" plate on Monday next week [same as t'lad wanted] from a guy called Dom in Colne.

It will be a LPG converted 1 with the Quattro system. It will be ready for my kids soon as they pass their tests [hopefully start o' Crimbo ]

I thought about buying the FIL [Roy's] 2005 Accord 2.2 CTDi Estate ["05" plate, but has a PP ] as he is giving up driving after many, many years

The MIL [Yvonne] still drives though She drives a 2011 "11" 1.5 dCi Qashqai AUTO
