Wondering how he will be dropping off the kids and picking them up etc, I couldn't wait to see what he rocked up in.
Ford Galaxy Ghia, 1.9 DT (2nd gen)
He arrived in our street, parked up with a huge smile on his face. He looked smug about his beaten up '54 plate purchase. Scuffed Alloys, badges either badly corroded or fallen off, dings and dents everywhere. (I strongly suspect TAXI)
He said proudly how it has a 6 speed gearbox with push down reverse.
1.9 TURBO diesel, 130 brake.
It was at that point I said 'is that all?'
Oh the look on his face. I told him I am a 2.2 HDi with a turbo of course, and without trying I have more power than him and that's without the 180 re-map done.
His face, green with envy.
At what point do I piss on his parade that actually this hardened Ford fan is actually driving around a VDubz engine and shell just re-badged as a Ford?
Let's just say this time I could turn my back and walk away with a hugely smug look on my face and I wiped that smirk faster than last time when I said the bus wasn't worth what it sold for with the rust, non turbo version and the 'touch up' paint job he did with tip-ex
It also towed my caravan arguably better than the 406 last weekend
