How many different car 'configurations' do you have...


Recommended Posts

Posted

I don't know if configuration is the right word, as I yet again tried to go for a 6th gear in the old Mondeo that isn't there (lots of grating noises from reverse) or stood the Fiesta on its nose because of the over servoed brakes, I wondered if I had too many different layouts.

  • 0 door, 3 door, 5 door
  • 4 speed, 6 speed, 5 speed
  • petrol cap on the back, left and right
  • carbureted, turbo charged, injected
  • non assisted steering, electric power steering, hydraulic assisted,

I reckon that's a decent level of complication, anybody got more to remember than that?

And bikes or horses don't count

Added: FYI I'm counting the Westie as a 0 door as I don't fit them
