Ford??? Makes me shivver (all due respect to the Capri owner!)
But then never owned one...
My parents house is in victoria ROad, and I lived in St.A all my life until moving to Brighton / hastings to work four year ago.
Still like the slow pace of life down sou'west, but St. A needs to catch up a bit in my opinion.
I got the red one from a guy who used to live in Cambourne (EIGHTY QUID!!!) but now delivers white good for Household Appliance down gover.
It was immaculate bar the ignition falling apart and then it died due to a driveshaft seal leaking all the box oil out of it. No money to fix, so had to sell spares / repairs up in B'ton.
If I were older and wisher I would have taken the chip off it and the strut brace too!
I spend lots of time with some friends down Penarwyn Rd. near bethel but I think I will have to visit next weekend though (too darn busy)

Okay Vital Ststs:
Steven Sherwood (age 27)
Penrice School '90-'95
St. A college 95-97
Then Aberystwyth Uni to 01
Then teacher training 02-03
Then teacher in East Sussex 04-present.
This is my 26th car, including all those I joint-owned (Nova's tec. not on list below).
Nice 3i, Rob. Ford's sports stuff is good (I almost bought a 4i once but insurance was £970 at the time!) but I prefer Vauxhall for the tuning (second to D6C Citroens of course!)
Will definately be down next weekend, just got the go-ahead from the old dear!
