Ok I'll swap you my "BMW ZT" for your "Volvo Escort" then

I drove a 5 pot Vurlvur diesel the other day, can you guess who it belonged to?

I bet Trikey would know

If only it was diesel. Mind you 22 mpg around town on short journeys isn’t too bad. 34 on a run and don’t tell Brian it reminds me of the Escort 1.8 D van I had in 2000 as a company van. Tinnney and drafty seems to weigh as much as a bag of crisps tho!
I like it and enjoy it but it’s a car not like the ZTs I’ve owned. It’s a machine not a member of the family if you get it! I park it up and it looks like every other car in the street.

I bet he lives in the land of Hurb Nerbs, and goes to the barber for a poem.
