I was very tempted at that Granada Estate 2.8 Ghia on eBay - 1 owner

beige, but it looked immaculate. Went for just over £500.

That's a lot of money to throwaway on the track in one day...

Track my arse! I was thinking about it as a stop-gap between the
Carlton and the Audi, as I'd like to sell the Carlton and the Fiesta
and get replacement cheap alternatives as stop-gaps. Ideally a tatty
old £100 fiesta van and a tatty old £100 Carlton, but I saw that and
was tempted. Would have rathered one for about £200 though!

What, to use for work???
