Advantages: A COMFORTABLE SMOOTH RIDE , OLD FASHIONED MECHANICS

Disadvantages: NONE THAT I CAN SEE

I have a Sierra Saphire 1.8 LX - she will be 20 years old next year. My dad had this car for 12 years and we did try to sell it as it is in absolute pristine condition, for a mere £500 but you know what ebay and such are like - everyone wants something for nothing and was telling us they could get one for £175 - well it must be a roller skate or buggered for that price. We even contacted the Sierra Owners club to see if an enthusiast wanted to buy it but we got no response at all . So I have made it my own - the garage offered to scrap it as no one would be interested they said. That would be sacriledge cos the car is in mint condition. I have now laid to rest my poor old vauxhall corsa ( that has given me nothing but trouble in recent years ) and now I drive " Christine " as I call her. She has only done 70,000 miles - and cruises like a dream - I cannot afford a new car or be accepted for finance so you make do with the hand me downs dont you ? and i'll tell you something - she is fantastic.

Summary: OLD IS NOT UNCOOL
