Another crappy loan car

Both our cars have gone into the garage today, the exhaust has fallen off the mondeo and the Freelander needs an MOT (deep joy). The chappy told us we could use their car if we wished, to save us walking home in the rain. So here it is, our crappy loan car:





No radio, absolutely knackered 1.3 engine (125k miles), and if you want to wind the windows down then you'll be needing this:



It's better than nothing, it's rare that the local garage gives you a loan car! It had no fuel in it when we picked it up but they gave us a tenner to put in, so smiles all round. Just hope nobody sees me in it Embarassed 2002 Discovery Adventurer LE

I don't mind the colour, it's understated, unlike that nasty lime green Honda Jazz we've had before. 2002 Discovery Adventurer LE
