Thats nice mate, just not keen on the black strip along the doors but each to their own . I'd go for colour coding the clocks (be an arse-ache no doubt), can't see the colour of the alloys but 'd do them dark grey (anthraicte (sp?) lol.

I dont understand why you have got yourself a brand new car, loosing money hand over fist, and not even using it as you cant drive?

Plus, you are learning to drive. Everyone has small bumps / scrapes and they learn from their mistakes.

Thats why imo for your first car your better off with something small and cheap - along the lines of a corsa.

Wont they question why someone with a mobility car is putting diffusers on it and lowering it? Also it'll likely cost an arm and a leg for the garage to fit suspension

So what is your granda doing while your cruising around in his mobility car?

you can fit eibachs on it without affecting the warranty doesn't have to be done by ford either.

i think i like these new fiestas, they look smart but they are quite a lot of moey for what they are.

oh and I put the flywheel on that engine so yeah it's probably dodgy and gonna be fucked soon

You need to get in touch with mobility mate. From what i know about mobility cars is that mobility buy the car from the dealer and then you hire the car from mobility. Therefore, the car is owned by mobility. After 3 years you can buy the car if you wish at a reduced rate.

Good deal for a young person as it's what £180 - £200 a month which includes tax, insurance and servicing. However, you are limited to the mileage you do.

You need to be careful as technically that car is meant to be for your grandads use - i.e. you taking him to the hospital etc. It doesn't matter that you are giving him the money each month, that deal is technically for your grandad only.
