Re: One careful owner
Makes me laugh when you see "One carefull LADY owner"... So great, the cars never been looked at other than in services or MOT's, the clutch would have been ridden, there will be makeup everywhere and probably low on oil

Re: One careful owner
I remember a few years back; just after completion of a new Village Hall in a Derbyshire village an old lady smashed her car through the entrance destroying the canopy and the revolving door 
witnesses said she had got 'confused' and hiy the gas instead of the brake
The 407 there was probably a result of the same confused motor skills at least the old boy bought a decent car rather than a Kia picnic or a Hianddie wash basket
