Only 1/3 of our cars are roadworthy. Twingo is the last man standing. Yes all of our cars are French...

Laguna Estate has a severely failed ball joint, duno how long that’s been going but I drove it the other day and the hub assembly is smashing backwards and forward every time you bring the clutch in or stop.

Saxo has lost all of it’s brake lights, blew the exhaust and is becoming rather hard to start.

The Twingo will soon be in the garage but that’s just for regular servicing, plus the bumper needs clear coat and some elbow grease with the polisher (been meaning to do that for ages).

The joys of motoring...

I love them more everytime I look at the car. That said I only did it because I can’t afford alloys and hate plastic caps.

Hase fun! I’m thankful that I’ll never have to be the family slave chauffeur since my mom made the unwise decision to replace her V70 with a Nisan Note, which allows me to waste all my mooney on something cool and unreliable.

I’m the family perma-taxi, the Golf is alright at that, but when I had the MX5? Lol nope. Lots of double/triple journeys.

Not quite, but that was the sort of look I was going for. I’d love to upgrade to Sparco Terras some day.

I usually avoid due to the fact we have the big Laguna for that sorta thing.

Money and the need to travel on time to places fairly often forced me into something somewhat sensible.

Or I could just go all out and upgrade to one of the factory rally versions of the Twingo.

The joys of motoring...

The Joys of French motoring!

Love those wheels btw. Are you gonna add two white race-stripes Gordini-style as well?

To be fair a failed ball joint at 91k miles isn’t too bad.

Thanks, I thought about stripes but decided against it for now.
