Loan Car
^^^ What? You're borrowing a Cayman for two days and parking it for most of that time, hell's bells I'd be booking two days off and heading for the Hills!

+1. I usually book a day off if I have a Porsche courtesy car to enjoy. Helps to cushion the blow of Porsche servicing costs etc!

Be nice if I had the time to book off. We'd tried to arrange it to be the same day as we're at PEC as I have 2 days off then, sadly my OPC don't have any loan cars that day

One of the (very few) advantages of being well past pensionable age is no need to book time offWing Commander wrote: ↑Mon Sep 27, 2021 9:57 pm +1. I usually book a day off if I have a Porsche courtesy car to enjoy. Helps to cushion the blow of Porsche servicing costs etc!

To be fair to the Fiesta, it's so easy to drive and park in town, and it's tiny engine means I don't need to worry about finding fuel (even though I was given it with less than a quarter of a tank)! In some ways I prefer driving it in town to the Macan!
It is incredibly basic though - if it was a decent spec it would actually be a fairly decent car.

Handles pretty well too I bet. Anybody that knocks Fords probably hasn't driven one. I've had two Mondeos and a Focus, not a bad word to say about them, a joy to drive, with 3 kids the Mondeo's luggage capacity was akin to the Tardis.
