I haven't posted for a while and in the last year my fleet have changed somewhat..

This is how it currently stands...

My daily .. 2002 ford focus zetec ESP

2.0 ltr petrol

I got a bargain with this... Got her about a year and a half ago for the daily commute through country lanes.. Also todo the "odd jobs" so tip runs and log collection etc...

She has bee almost faultless with only one water pipe that decided to fail ... £12 for a new pipe and she hasn't put a foot out..

Also flew her MOT with only a tire needed (they were in the boot ready)

It's only ever been washed once but was treated to a service this year £14 for filters and plugs






Next up is my towing car .. The saaaab ... She comes in the form of the 9-5 aero hot

2.3 turbo 230bhp :-)

She's only been in my ownership for 6 months since the previous tower bmw e46 was written off :-/






One of my main attractions to the model was the seats are both heated and cooled



The last one in the current fleet is the wife's car... Golf gti tdi ... She's the 150 bhp 6 speed gti :-)

She's been in the family since new and when the wife's mum came to sell I simply couldn't say no..





Doing all of this I've realised I don't have as many pics of the cars as I've thought.. My aim is to get some better pics soon..

All comments welcome

I have a new addition to my fleet

2001 Land Rover Freelander with the highly desired 1.8 k series engine...

It's the ES model so has the full leather heated seats and even comes with an mot...

I was most surprised as I thought I paid a very fair price of £zero

The plan... Well it's just something to have a bit of fun with and take my little boy "off roading"



I have more pics but I'm having tech issues that's stopping me for the moment ..

Can't argue with free!
I've never really been off road, I imagine it's quite good fun when you're not worried about snapping or breaking things?! biggrin

I've taken for a little "soft road" session and it done better than I expected.. I plan on just getting some big tyres and lifting it and see how it goes smile

Looking forward to low cost 4x4ing
