General Car Chat / Re: Mexican car part 2

Now then Tigger and BG..... would an old duffer drive a 3 litre turbo petrol coupe from Mexico.

No....he'd drive a derv Mundano with a tranny lump, or similar.

 It was an identical burrito bus, even on a 23 plate. Must be the new way to waste their pension pot, instead of buying wobble boxes or Motor-knomes.

Now did I see His lordship, trying to reverse the Burrito bus into a space in Huntingdon multi-strory today..

Not unless Huntington is in Wales, land of the sheep worrier. 

 Well the old duffer,was driving a Burrito bus identical to yours, colour as well, and the lady in the passenger seat was waving her arms around.

Just an excuse to up the prices, my hire car is booked, and possibly going to cost more again than last year, reckon it'll be near €400,, which is about €200 less than the big players, there's lots of choices around Malaga if you look and shop around, but read the details closely, it's were they can sting you, the new con is Limited milage.
