Yes Dad, sorry Dad. How about those Mustang sales?

Never had a problem with it in 20+years. But we do have a slightly different banking system.

We always approached from the rear, with the patrol car shielding us as we talked to the driver. I defy anyone to read a front plate at a closing speed of 200kmh or more. It must be about revenue then.

Nice car CV.

The right colour :clap:

I haven't written a cheque ( correct spelling) 😁 for over 20 years. We're nearly cashless down here, everything is cards or online transfers. The Ford was bought with the deposit on a card, and the balance by transfer. I try to remember to carry cash for tips, but it's a faff to go to an ATM...

I feel your joy. It's a great car, drive it in good health.

Castrol has been around since 1899 when it was called the Wakefield Oil Co. The name change to Castrol came from the castor oil lubricant that they were famous for. Not only was caster oil a great lubricant for early aero engines, it was an excellent laxitive for the pilots who breathed and...

So, I have to ask, why did you buy one?

Really? I don't carry cash, but I have a tidy sum elsewhere. I think there's a few of us in here.

OK. Now I have a great car that's not common. Win!

Me too. Except, I had to get our fuel spend for this year and the Ford has cost 3 times more than the wife's Skoda for the same mileage. But then I think of the Doom Goblins I've pissed off and feel better.

Sorry, cars only, I have a wife 😁

From memory the 4S's I had did not have the extra rim protection strip on the sidewall. So they probably don't stick out more.

$NZ85K for the R, $NZ93K for the Mustang. I didn't even consider a Golf R though, no presence. It looks like every other Golf.

Many washes, no probs. So far :fingerscrossed:

I can, and I will. You do not know this country, you do not know how things work, or don't work as the case may be.

You have just confirmed what I said. You will never see 30 or 40 year old Ev's running around

Not quitting, but not out of touch with reality either. Yearly licence renewals and medicals start here at 80. Who knows what might happen then. Long life spans run in my fathers side, but I'm counting on 10 maybe 13 more years driving, more will be a blessing. The means I'll have an 10 - 13...

Sitting beside a Yamaha R1 at the lights in my slow, boring SUV. Couldn't use launch as it would have given the game away, so I put it in sport mode and just nailed it on the green. I had 20 metres on him before he woke up and blasted past. My wife had to laugh at that one.
