You've got to park the 4x4 on the grass though 
Make it feel at home

Perfect colour :worship:
Grats on everything, will have to invite me round for a potter at some point
yeah that car port would be most awesome for those times when its raining, but you can still work on cars wish i had a car port :/
what car gets the garage though?

None of them - it's for my spares/ alloy wheel collection!
The Y10 gets first dibs on the car port - and most of whatever else is being worked on it's 6mtrs long though only 2.44 wide .
yeah,, i use a shed for keeping all my spares in lmao.
car port's plenty wide enough for panda type cars

Said goodbye to the 100hp tonight - it's gone to the wilds of Cumbria - glad I owned one but I like my cars to be like me - built for comfort, not for speed

Yeah I reckon it will be the perfect place for doing an engine change - can even fit a winch to it
yeah beef up some of those supports.. could get a nice chain hoist in there!
you guys just know that if i had my own house it would be just like fred dibnahs place.. only involving classic cars!

Panda thought of the day - hey I can get good mpg from a Panda!! In this case it's the scraggy red 1.2 mk3 4x4 with 112k on the clock.
30 mile trip evidence! I did get caught in a funeral cortège for a few miles which may have assisted slightly, but the rest was proper driving at "normal" speeds. I realise Most Easterly Pandas gets 81mpg but he had to buy a Pious to do it & I suspect that will lose slightly more in depreciation than I will on my £1500 4x4 :devil:
I wonder if I can be bothered to try an economy tank - nah even today I hoofed it through Aylesbury to carve through the traffic....

Very true!
In a truly weird coincidence though (which I hadn't noticed!) the mk3 Panda readout will go up to 141.9 mpg!!!!
Aside from the odd coincidence, I do wonder why the Abarth will go to 99.9mpg but the Panda to 141.9 - I like order & the Abarth one is logical - not the Panda though......
It's general panda thoughts - surely encompasses later models too?
the mk3 is a classic in waiting imo

And it's nice to talk about Panda's sometimes - too many threads about Seat's, Lancia's, and Yugo's recently. There's an engine thread about a Cinq sneaked in too!
Yeah can't blame you for 'Hoofing' it through Aylesbury. Foot down no stopping I say.
By the way Vern and I both get a regular 52 MPG from our Terra's; up hill, down dale town and motorway. It almost gets tedious...........
In fact not wishing to stretch a point, BUT I haven't had a working fuel gauge for 6 months. Mileage is so predictable that I just calculate 80 miles to the £10's worth. My van cost £300 by the way and drags all my tools about.:slayer:

You obviously haven't been here recently, the roads are shot and so crowded you can't get much speed up and then have to stop at the next set of bl00dy lights.
And to be honest the only good view of Hornchurch is the one in the rear view mirror
You are so right about Hornchurch. I'm moving to God's waiting room.
Clacton where you don't have to queue cos the inhabitants might not have that long left.
A good UKIP town now with 'Douglas' in charge so I shall have to buy jack boots and a dodgy little tash just to fit in
