What it that dusty?

chas2008

MK1 Cortina 1500GT (on the log book as a 1200 deluxe) ,
the scary bit is nobody worried about MPG (they all seemed to do 20-25mpg regardless of engine size) and fuel was cheap as was insurance, road tax was the same regardless of vehicle...it was cheap motoring.
you bought a car because you liked it, not how much it cost to run.

Peter 3:18-19- After crucifixion, Jesus went down to the heart of the earth to herald His Triumph to the spirits in chains. ;-)

Daihatsu Charade, 1 Litre, 3 cylinder. Bought tax-free for almost half the UK price whilst serving in W. Germany.
Coming home on leave was a 4 hour journey to Calais, cross, then Dover to North Wales. Whole journey completed on 2 tanks of petrol.
It was so good I kept it for 11 years!
