    Hey - but you were King of the Road, cruising the Motorways in a Silver suit & your Ford Orion :D Not bad for 19 - you should have stuck to it, you could have had a Mondeo by now ;)

    Skoda Favorit 135L in 1990. Paid $4500 for it and actually had to queue up for it. Was driving a Fiat 126 before and this was like getting into an S Class in comparison. I had to pick the car up about 200 miles from Warsaw. The Skodas came with no anticorrosion sealant on the underbody and for the warranty to be valid the owner had 3 weeks to get the car undercoated with sealant. I picked the car up in February and had to drive it back home on roads covered in saline solution. I'm pretty sure that car corroded away into nothingness within several years and the only thing holding it together were the rather catchy Halfords go faster stripes I had down the sides. ;-) Only kept the Skoda 9 months and bought a used Fiat Uno Turbo i.e.
