Agree with just about everything you say above Rosco but since I took posession of a D40 Navara for work I've learnt two things that I just can't do without any more:
Electric windows - it's now sooo difficult to get good airflow through the vehicle when I want it.
Electric mirrors - It's an absolute PITA having to get out of the car, walk around to the passenger side, adjust the mirror to where you think it needs to go, walk back to the driver's side and get in, check the mirror - DAMN it's still not right, get back out of the car, walk around.................................
PS, the Navara mirror don't have the "home" position if they get knocked and gives me the absolute you-know-whats getting them back in the right possie.
So electric windows and electric mirrors are now on my "essential" list. Call me soft but I don't care!

Freshly purchased '89 GQ TB42 dual fuel
1977 Escort 2 Door
The Ford badged GQ is hunkering on the front lawn waiting for the imminent new clutch - keen to take her out for a little podder in 2nd and see if I can scare fellow users of the road into letting me cruise through without having to come to a stop :) :049: But really, itll prolly just have to wait
The Escort has been my toy for over 8 years, garaged whilst I was overseas. After a number of engines and general fucking around with it, it hasn't stopped once in over 4 years in it's current configuration. very happy with it. 5 spd sierra box is in it and im keen on doing a big brake conversion and a injected 2ltr. but thats another story for another board... sorry!
And for those of you who are wondering, no I didn't buy the Maverick cos it has a Ford badge - it was just the right machine at the right time!
Cheers
I haven't checked this poll in months...Looks like the wagon's have absolutely smashed the poll.
Good to see everyone adding to it!
I have a GU coily ute, and my GQ xtra cab.
Very happy with both!
