If you put the front mudguard on it would look as good as the red one  .
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Why did you park next to a locost????
Cheap in what way - £/bhp?
In my book that means good value and better sense.
A basic service on the red one will cost more than most locosts!
I bet you could give the Ferrari a good run for its money on the track. Less to damage if you have a big off. Easier to repair. In my mind the locost
looks good against that common red.

the one i have got
less chance of it being f*cked up by kids if you park it in town
easier to insure
more fun to tinker with
its been personalised by me
and every other road user doesnt think your a cock just because of what car you drive
In fact the picture was taken in a garden centre car park and the lady who was driving it was trying to get enough plants to fill her semi detatched
sized conservatory into the rather limited load carrying space - i made a small remark about it being a nice motor but not actually being a practical
vehicle for going to the garden centre and she looked at my car and said whilst waving a wrinkled over uv exposed hand at my pride and joy
"thats a smaller boot than mine" and sniggered, - bitch!
i couldnt think of a suitably un - offensive comment to come back with so i left it at that. After backing out i just dropped the clutch when pulling
away leaving her and her poxy house plants with a light covering of gravel!

I would choose the locost for same reasons.
Sounds like you had the final word - nice one.
I cant believe she took a Ferrari to a garden centre. Ill not complain about my wife abusing the family Mondeo now... Ooops - didnt mean to confess to
having a Mondeo!

lol Steve,
Or of course a Morgan Edit: Darren, in fact i think she did have the last word but what it was i dont know, in all fairness i couldnt hear her for
the gravel bouncing off the inside of my rear arches at the time, and i couldnt see her to lip read because of the dust

I agree with Steve - take the Ferrari, sell it, buy a cheaper Ferrari and a Seven of whatevertype takes your fancy, have money left to run both. Job
done.

I'd take the Ferrari, sell it and buy a top spec Ultima GTR and a BMW 535d or something of that ilk.
I'd put the rest against my first house
