So, is it not classed as a "REAL car"?
Both good to practice and learn in , get a few 1000 miles under your belt and treat yourself to a REAL car later
So, is it not classed as a "REAL car"?
I did ask, and am still waiting for the reply.I think we're wondering what a "REAL" car is (and maybe why a Focus and a Fiesta may not qualify).

NoHave you nothing better to do tonight ?
Wish I actually had a spare in our car! Only got a can of something to spray into the knackered tyre. So far ( fingers crossed) never had to use it.I changed a wheel on a Fiesta for someone once. Some bright spark at Ford had decided to hang it underneath, presumably so that you could get at it without having to empty the boot. But, you still needed to empty the boot to get at the bolt that held it up anyway. This bolt was, of course, seized, and it took a good while to finally drop the (filthy and corroded) wheel down.
She then took the punctured wheel to be fixed. They put it back underneath.
It fell off on the way home, as the thread on the bolt was totally buggered by that point.
This is what you find, when you check on the spare in my trusty Getz. A rather more savoury prospect.
With a proper car, like a Getz, you get a full-size matching alloy wheel.Wish I actually had a spare in our car! Only got a can of something to spray into the knackered tyre. So far ( fingers crossed) never had to use it.
