Hi all,

just chopped my BM for Fiesta ST and am still smilin!! At 35 just wondered if i win the old boy record!

Anyway car history seems the norm so:

Had L plates on my dads gorgeous white Escort RS Trubo 1987, wish he still had it tucked away in the garage!

First car 1980 Mini Clubman, smoothed body, metallic silver repaint, matt black trim, no bumbers, all black interior, cool alloys, dunlop sp tyres, looked and drove gr8 until head on with a mini bus!!

Couple of boring vw's in between, 1956 oval beetle etc

White Fiesta XR2 great fun until got t-boned by a grandpa in a mazda, doh! It was my mums car and was Pristine, low mileage

couple of other odds and ends then finally got BMW 318is, fantastic car! followed my new Mini Cooper, first one sold by the dealer, but no end of problems and recalls, note to self never buy "Brand New" cars wait a while for them to iron out the problems.

All black Cooper S, mega quick but more technical probs with EMU and immobiliser

Then back to BMW and 3i8ci

Finally up to date with the blue ST

So see you in the forums guys and gals.....

old skool

Yeah it is a little bit annoying, i've now got used to putting my foot under the clutch pedal to rest it and it seems just as comfortable to me now.

First of all, Welcome to the Forum Andy

There is no age limit on here, there is young <--- aswell as old

I am Mr Vasey the forum Moderator and i live in Coleshill (B46). As i mentioned on another thread, im pretty sure i passed you whilst coming into coleshill from the bottom end (off A446 to the bridge), you was going the opposite way.

If i see you again, ill be sure to give u a flash and beep... so if you see a bad person at the wheel... thats me

Welcome to the Forum Andy.
You should have ordered a left-hand-drive, you would have gotted a nice comfy foot rest for your left foot.

Much as I'd like a footrest, I think that would be going a bit too far for me.
