New car!

I say new. It's actually the oldest yet. F-reg Honda Accord from 1988. But for the last seven years it's been owned by a nice man in Bradford who drove it from his house to his office five minutes away; according to the MOTs it's only gained about 8000 miles in the last three years. He said he's never had any problems with it whatsoever. 10 months MOT, 5 months tax. Slightly cheaper insurance. 500 quids. Probably overcharged, but if it keeps going for the full 10 months then I'll be more than happy. The advert said "beige" but it's a sort of metallic beige, almost gold really. It looks very dated, which is good, because it is less likely to be stolen and I don't care about what my car looks like as long as it gets me from A to B.

The radio doesn't really work, none of the buttons respond and it's tuned to local Bradford asian radio. But it plays tapes, which I have plenty of. I think I might call it Raj, on account of that's the last three letters of the number plate.

Never named the Ford. Maybe that's why it broke.
