Ford Streetka and all smallish soft tops. Now considering Chevrolet or Suzuki,instead of Nissan

Its a Mondeo, and it's not mine.

Its a Mondeo

Is that supposed to be better in some way?!

 

[Drago]

Better than a skip.

Surely we could crowdfund the purchase of any non-running car, an angle-grinder and a welder, so that Accy can make his own convertible.

Does he not know any fire fighters.

The way he's misusing that microwave, I suspect he'll get to meet a few soon.

They are brilliant at ripping roofs off.

Your current avatar is for a Ford Fiesta leaving you in no position to judge cars.

I've had three Fiestas over the years. All of them were very bad starters.

Does anyone know if the wing mirrors on the Streetka are retractable? I had a look at one this afternoon. The seller told me not to try and bend them back as they wont go back. I'm pretty sure they're retractable on the Ka,so surely they'd go back on the Streetka?

Edit.. They have those black rubber concertina type thingies on,so they must be retractable!
He said he's had the car for 3 years. Perhaps he didn't know they were retractable and now he feels a fool?

I've got a Fusion, the Fiesta for people in tall hats and it starts on the button. Having said that, it does have a battery the size of a small microwave oven from a Land Rover Discovery.

The Boxster is a well poised motor. Those Finns know how to make a German car.

Micra with a fancy body kit.

Also considerably more expensive than the Ka...

Only a 1 litre engine as well.
