does it have the pop up headlights ? I had a 2nd hand Toyota Celica automatic in the UK 20 odd years ago with the pop up headlights and loved it .

Ran her about the other day.Before she started dripping from her pet cock.



I just like saying that. My pet cock has a bit of a drip.

Tommy, Tommy,Tommy, I sorry.

I should be in jail. Oh, that's right, I was.
Let's get back to the car thing. Though I do love the shed next to pricks truck. Ant was looking for a model.

I hope you all know I'm just joking. Just trying to give you a smile is all.

Cheers what or who ever you ride.

Fancy a wee city ride for easier city driving.

Sproglette fancies a pink March.

Put in an offer on a 2012 Festy this morning.





1.4 liter, 88k km on the odo, and good service history. Would probably only end up doing 20-25km a week.

Just putting this up so Dill and Sid can do me homework for me and tell me every reason why it would be a shit buy.


I think I remember the Festy won European car of the year or some sort a few years later, but with a 3 cylinder eco engine. So that probably doesn't mean squat.


AFAIK the ol' Festies are pretty damn reliable and well built, like most Toyotas etc.

Though they're probably just as boring.



Any thoughts on it?

^ A perfect ray of sunshine that. Cheers.


Might change me offer to one paid in Bitcoin.

I came across the issue when I was looking to buy a Focus for SWMBO

Cheers. Will look more into that. And certainly take it for an extended motorway test drive if going ahead with it.

Definitely ain't driving a Yaris, even if it is only 20km per week.
Ain't going near a March, Mirage or Brio.
Think the only other small city car option from the main manufactures are a Jazz or a Swift. The Swift is kinda interesting.

Qhh, Noob Dave beat me to it. Nearly bought the Missus a Fiesta. Big gearbox problems.

I wouldn't put you off the pink March though

Have this vision of you trying to help pull someone out of a ditch and they see that and start putting their brakes on.

Especially if I was pulling them backwards towards me....

Swifts are good little cars, we have a couple at work used for runarounds, invoicing, etc. The missus had a Yaris a few years ago, she liked it but I upgraded her to an SUV when she got pregnant.
Those Brios, March's, etc.. fucking bean tins, Lu.

You know it makes sense! I’ll do you a deal!

^ For sure.

I don't know how those Brio's are even allowed on the road.



The rear crumple zone is the backseat passenger's spine.

If it includes a slightly black stained tootbrush, I could be interested.

^^Nope... but I could always half-inch the wife’s new one and throw that in on the deal!

I guess it doesn't matter who or what drives you.
