1519.0. "Can anybody help !!" by SUBURB::ALLYS (Reality... No Digital !!) Thu Aug 01 1991 15:15

    
    
    Has anybody got a soft top leasemobile, be it two seater or cabriolet
    they could trade for the weekend, I need to get a bridegroom to the church
    on Saturday.
    
    I have a shiny black R.S turbo Fiesta in exchange.
                     
    Either drop me a mail or post a note, oh I am in the Reading area.
    
    Thanks
    
    Shaz

	Shaz I have a mate who has just built up a VW Beetle, having chopped the roof off to make it into a soft top (or no top). I am sure we would love to have a shiny black RS Fiesta for the weekend (We could test it's performance against my Escort RS. There are two problems which exist ... 1 We live over here in Norn' Irelan' (accent), and you are over in Reading. 2 You don't really want a Beetle do you ? (even if it has got a roller skate wheel accelerator pedal and lots of chromed nuts). Regards, Gary (being silly, but would love to drive an RS Fiesta for a weekend) PS. Shaz do you like the Fiesta ? If not I am sure we could work out a permanent swop for my friends Beetle. Don't know whether he would part with the roller skate wheel as perhaps it might fit the Fiesta :-) Hope the wedding goes well anyway.

	> one of them has a decent car That's only because they are going for the price vs >4 years on the car tax/ lease purchase cost...
