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

Hi Andy, welcome to the forum.

Interesing car history there.
L plates on a RS Turbo, not fair. I learnt t drive in a 1.1 Fiesta.

only allowed to drive it in large empty car parks LOL

Welcome to the forum Andy

How long have you had your ST?

Chris

Only on the 3rd week now so still getting the hang of it. Trying to get used to no foot rest for my left foot doh!

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.

Not yet you young whippersnapper,if I could get out of my zimmer I give you a right telling off ,yougsters nowadays no respect etc etc,zzzzzzzz.

eh? what? you'll have to speak up the batteries in my hearing aid have run out !!!

No worries Scotty, reg starts BN05

Grrrrr, damn foreign cars and their lovely footrests

If i had a footrest, id be wandering why my gears were crunching so much and why im stalling when breaking to a halt
