Got Pissed. Bought A Car I Don't Need.

[Warren t claim]

That's a good thing, you're in luck. The ones without power steering are hateful to drive.

I've had countless number of unassisted Mk3 Festers without PAS and never found it a problem. Although this does have PAS it's not over-assisted and it heavier than the Range Rover to twirl the tiller on.

The unassisted one I drove was of similar vintage to the car you've just bought and the steering was horrifically heavy. It was a work pool car, though, so was no doubt buggered in some way or other. The steering on the Mk2 wasn't bad, as I recall. Perhaps it was just that car...

Mk1 &2 Festers are a decent steer IIRC. Their only issue is the wheel that twists as you turn it.

Is that Paul's forum car now that he's disgraced himself and won't be getting the Lexus?

I'm open to offers.

Nah, sorry my stable's full. I got into mild panic I was going to end up with that 106.

Just inflate the tyres to 200 psi. That would lighten it up a bit.

The thing is, if I really wanted to trundle around in it until I got bored I could have borrowed it for a week or so for free. Now I'm left with having two cars, one of which is a big JEEP* taking up precious parking space on my road.

I'd be sacking the rangie off and keeping the festa with the price of fuel being as it is. Nowt on it to go wro g other than rust either.

Are you not having the 106 then?

[bub2006]

Not many left now Warren,ideal little hack for deliveries. We had one in the same colour about 10 years back on a 51 plate but ours was a freestyle 1.6,pretty much a zetec s without th body kit. Had really stiff seats in it,ac and other goodies. Preferred the seats in out other lower spec one to be honest!

Nah, Bub's collecting it for his mate.

[bub2006]

Hopefully Monday night now. A frame and shogun sport sat waiting for the green light.

[paulplom]

Fingers crossed.

Where do you find these cars for sale?
