Stay tuned for some good news folks. I may have just purchased something I've never bought for a car I've owned before. You'll find out soon enough :-)

  • Folks you may have noticed that I've been relatively quiet on here for a while. The reason being, my wife and I have bought our first house together. We are finally getting settled and all is well so

  • That house looks very small... Or is it just far away?

Hmm. It'll make certain things look quicker. If it ever arrives....

Not a car related update, but still an update;

I got married on Saturday just past :) It was such an amazing day. Mrs Gallagher and I had our closest friends around us which made everything so much better.

:)

Congrats Mate.

Best wishes to you and the ball and chain missus. :yahoo:

Congratulations and best wishes to you both. If you get past 7 years then you'll be onto a winner (experience talking lol)

I've been married 13 years today and wouldn't be with anyone else.

She let me buy my ST after all 😍.

(First marriage lasted 2 years, she didn't like Fords 😁)

my parents are at 60 years married, i managed 2 years married after 8 years living in sin.

not put off doing it again though,

Good 2nd wife you have stoney and hat tipped to you for that. I forgot to mention the terrible 2's (it doesn't only apply to toddlers). And a great big WOW to your folks Ian. They're the last of a great breed.

Apologies for lack of progress folks. I'm trying to build up the bank account after the wedding.

I'll be getting two front tyres at the end of this month though not really a mod. Hoping to get some lows soon after that though. I've just been really enjoying my car lately, especially after those power issues I was having.

Oh I had a rear end shunt at a roundabout a few weeks ago too. I thought the guy had pulled out onto the roundabout but he changed his mind, I didn't realise and went into the back of him. Not a mark on his car but my bumper cracked in two spots, couple of scuffs, license plate broke and my drls smashed to bits :( I've tried to tidy it up as best I can, not really noticeable from afar so I'm happy enough for now.

That's all I can think of for now, I shall report back as soon as I can :)

Ps. Anyone in Portlaoise this weekend check out Quofest 2016, my band is playing Saturday and Sunday night ;) '

Also, this fiesta was in for side stripes last week:

Such a nice little car. Came from Ford with black roof and those alloys which have white plastic inserts which I thought was strange. Lots of white colour coding inside too. Some sort of special edition ?

That's not me in the car btw lol tis my mate.

That van looks like Deep impact blue? Same as Clive's and my ST. Lovely colour.

What drop springs have you bought?
