I mentioned to DH that "someone" was getting a new car, and from the way they were raving about it I thought it might just be a Moggy. And it is! I should have put it in writing, shouldn't I? :D
The second car I ever drove was my friend's Moggy - she used to give me a lift to work every day when I was just 17, so after I drove the boss's car (a Jaguar XJS) around the estate, she let me drive Milly too. I fell in love. If I hadn't gone off to college that autumn and been skint for the next umpteen years, I'd have bought one myself. (They had the most gorgeous black shiny shiny four-door Mog in the local car showroom that summer, and I walked two miles a day out of my way just to pass her... but she was always unaffordable. But I could have bought one from the guy that maintained Karen's for about £200 - this was 1989 though. I really wish I had bought one, even though I never did get as far as my test.)
How did I guess?
