New Car Finally!

Lavindathar · 01-30-2003, 09:29 PM

Finally got back on the roads today, for the first time since my accident.

I'm not nervous or anything, I just envision cars hitting walls and stuff. It's scary really! lol.

Anyway, for those who care, its a MK3 Ford Fiesta.

Looks standard at the moment, but that'll change!

EDIT - Can a mod change my sig url to a link? my comp us being stupid. Cheers.

Ford Fiesta? If they're anything like the Fiesta's that were sold here in Canada for a while all I can say is: What are you thinking man? A Ford Fiesta?
Been in a couple of good crashes myself, one just recently. All I can say is you gotta get back on that horse! I've still got a GTO for sale if you're interested. It'll eat a Fiesta for a light snack.

Hey Lav, that's great! Nacht says "that's good!" too

Jeffi0 · 01-30-2003, 10:24 PM

A fiesta?! That was my mom's first car... Didn't know they made them anymore... You shoulda bought the Expedition instead. Then you'd be invisioning your car bashing through the wall and coming our the other side.

That is one big truck...

BTW, I just got a new picture! He's kind of ugly, though. Looks like he's having a bad day.

congragulations, I think I saw photoes of your crash a while ago. Couldn't bring it up today. You are one lucky dude! I was rearended twice within a month of each other. I almost caused more accidents cause I would not stop watching my rearview mirror. I got over it. You will too. One of my mottos is "one day at a time." excpecially with all these gibbies running around.

Congrats, and be safe Lav!

Lady Aberdene, I was rear-ended three times in Toronto, in one year. The last time was at a stop light, in broad daylight in clear weather. The car behind me ran into my rear bumper at 80 km/hr without even touching the brakes! When asked why she didn't stop, she replied "I didn't see the stop light". Oh, and you stop for red lights and not for trucks?!?! [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img]

Some people shouldn't have drivers licences....

Congratulations Lavi! [img]smile.gif[/img] Being a bit nervous after your close-call accident is totally normal, just give it some time, and be careful!!!

Wish I lived in Canada, I'd love to check out Animal's Goat, although they are gas Hogs!

Forgot to mention, I only got it as it was free.

And Ford Fiestas are still made, and the new ones are incredibly quick as well. Some are expensive, some aren't.

Old ones are ten a penny.

Brand new MK6 Fiesta here : http://www.ford.co.uk/ As soon as it loads. (YES, there have been six versions!).

Mine is a MK3.

And i'm alright, I still hammer it everywhere, jsut a bit more observant to the conditions.
