Only a few hundred quid.

To my great surprise they said it'll cost fuck all pounds and Pence. Win!

Tomorrow I'll spend a couple of hours on the rags with the T Cut.
Business cover isn't the same as fast food delivery cover, I may be teaching you to suck eggs but most business cover specifically excludes food delivery, smart little car that is BTW, I had a 1.25 zetec a long time ago.

I specifically asked their call centre about food delivery and they said it'll be fine. Call was recorded.

Good buy, WTC. I had an angry face Mk4 for a couple of years a while back as a salt monkey. Genuinely sad when I weighed it in with terminal rusting. Look forward to some Domino tales in due course.....

My ex had one for years.
Was the nicest driving car that either of us had - more the family car than my poverty spec Corsa diesel which was great to throw about but nasty on a long trip.
Nicely bought with a fun (I think Yamaha developed?) engine.

1.3 Crossflow in this beauty. O the plus side I've discovered that it's got central locking.
