Artisan, yours is too hard. Can't you have categories or something?
And as for "quality time" that scrapinpeg has spent in a military academy, perhaps he was knocking off a female cadet?! You bad bad boy.  | Which version of the Punto? The Abarth rocks.
Actually I'm guessing the Citroen AX. If the Ford Fiesta is like what we used to get in the States then I hope you don't have to suffer with one.
The Volvo sinking would have to be a great story. If I was to lose a car by one of those three means I'd like to have a good story to go with it.

I'm glad I haven't got a Ford Fiesta too; my friend used to call hers the Ford Fiasco. Don't know which type of Punto; I just picked it as another small-ish girly car, my friend's got one.
Unfortunately the Volvo did not sink. The real story is almost as good though. Try again...
KShan, I pick the Corolla, for no better reason than I've no idea what an oldsmobile is like, I've never seen one; and that I like the word "corolla" better than the word "accord". I keep wanting to call them Honda Accordians.

| Nope not a convertible, but it's a hot car I tell you what!
The paints pealing but it most definately gets me from point a to point b.
I do own a 86 rabbit however it doesnt run and my future truck when I win the lottery is a frontier.

I then saw more smoke and a couple of flames, and backed away very rapidly! I live in a first floor (i.e. up one flight of stairs) flat so no time to get water, and there's no outside tap. There was nothing to do but call the fire brigade, who arrived in a reasonably short time but too late to save my car which was by this time displaying 8-foot flames and was a complete write-off. They put it out, no property was damaged nor people hurt, but there was a tearful little weasel watching it all...
Then the insurance comaony, allowing for the excess on my poicy, offered me twenty quid. B@astards!

| In a way it's nice to know that insurance companies also suck in England, not just here in the States. My wife's car was recently wrecked. $8,000 estimate on the bodywork before they can work on the engine. The insurance company 'totaled' it and offered $5,700. I'd like to see them be able to replace a '97 Nissan Pathfinder for $5,700. I haven't seen one for less than $10,00. Bast%$ds
