Brain fade or brake fade?

I assume brain, it was a steep hill and all but still! It's scary how little time there is to react, even when you're a long way back!
Live and learn, just gotta find its replacement now! On the upside, I bought it back for pennies so I will be removing parts

Nice car, but weren't you tempted by the 125PS for an extra £500?

Hi, not really, the car will be only used around town, 100ps is more than enough for my partner when she is coming from a 105ps normally aspirated engine, and £500 over a three year deal makes for more interest on top. With my car a remapped 1.6 ecoboost Focus I have my toy to play with.

Scratch was down to the plastic and the plastic trim was pretty scuffed

Am I the only person who cringes at the thought that someone else would drive my car when they pick it up/deliver? Can just imagine them starting it up and thrashing it

*Shudder*

I know exactly what you mean. I am like that with a lot of things in life. It is mine and I KNOW I will look after it....who are you? what are you going to do? no. stop it. give it back.

This. It's probably irrational but I'm the same. No go away you can't drive it into your MOT testing bay I can do it never mind forget it I'll just drive without an MOT.

What about your wife/partner - do you worry who's given him/her a thrashing?
