Christ alive it's got to have nearly 300k at least on the clock.
Do you mind...my trusty five year old Mondy has 318,000 on the clock and runs like new. All original suspension, save for a track rod end and one bush.
Only one bush? This 406 has had a couple of bushes, a hedge, 100m of grass and a ditch.

I'm a bit confused as the girl in the first photo looks like one of your daughters??

I also thought that perhaps your mad interior designer partner may have arranged the crash because she is still upset that you wouldnt agree to marry her....


I am so glad the universe is doing its job

It has always amazed me how taxi drivers never seem to get done for speeding.
They do, frequently. As "professional" drivers the degree of discretion afforded to other road users tends not to apply with the hire and reward trade (taxis proper and minicabs).

Odd that. I was talking to a private hire driver who had plod pull alongside at 90mph and just give a finger wag...

Its not like that round my way. Ironic really, the only speeding ticket I've picked up was whilst at the wheel of the slowest vehicle I drive, a TX4 auto.
