Whatever the case, my next car won't be capable of reaching those speeds!!!

Ooh exciting :) 

there cant be many cars in the past 30 years or so that cant hit 96Mph

so its bound to be something interesting and different :)

 

im going to go left field and say one of those new Electric Citroen Ami's? :) 

(I would totally have one if I could afford it as a local runabout, not got anywhere to charge one mind unless I tap into a streetlight...)

That’s a Band C offence isn’t it? I’m not sure I completely understand how it works now but isn’t that 150% weekly pay and six points? Once upon a time it would have been a £100 and 3. Maybe it still is? 🤷‍♂️ 

In about 2005 I got caught doing 95 in a mk5 escorts 1.6 and accepted points and a ban instead of a fine. 

Not my proudest moment.

  • DoctorRetro changed the title to The Doctor's travels through time. You have my bow. And my Ax!!!

Quality choice. How's it compare to the green AX?

Is the Carina staying about here? I'd have liked it but I'm in the middle of a house move and I think I'd be divorced if I bought another car.  But you never know in the future. 

It's a 954cc and I presume injection.

Green one was carb and 1.1

Yes, Carina is staying on the forum

 

First thoughts:

It's filthy. 

It coughs a bit under acceleration

Seats are different

Brakes are weak

Temp gauge sits a bit high and there was a bottle of water in the car. Always a worry 

Exhaust manifold held together with mole grips (I kid you not!)

But it has a years MOT and seems pretty solid, so could be worse I guess.
