Best bit: It's an Alfa.

Worst bit: It's an Alfa.

Bit like my Lotus, except that isn't an Alfa. Sort of.

My 928.

Feels amazing to drive.

Costs really quite a lot when it breaks. This isn't as rare as I'd like.

Good: Its reliable
Bad: It's Slow, Ugly and seems to be a target for people stealing wheeltrims and scratching it(this really confuses me as its a Skoda Estate) and the result of me being too broke to afford a car of my own(borrowing it from parents who own a used car garage)

I am pretty gratefull of it though because otherwise i would have to take the bus to work, should really get my ass in gear and save up for something interesting.

It's an absolutely brilliant all-rounder. Fastish, economical, RWD.

It's a bit too much of an all rounder, but going faster costs a lot more.

Fiesta 1.25

Good: Steering and handling are both brilliant...

Bad: Rusts... Then rusts some more... Then rusts a little more to be sure...

Then, after that, it indulges in some rusting, to keep things interesting around the rear arches...

...and it rusts from time to time...

Worst: Massively accesable performance (put in 10%, get 90%, add another 90% effort, only go 10% faster!!)
