Well talk about co-incidence. . . I just got off the phone with a friend in the UK and was just saying to him that I wanted to find a track to take the Aston to… Thank you Darren!

Watch this space for my South African opinion on which car you should get! Oh, and it is Opel here in SA, thank you for including us!

Shoukd we perhaps give that beer a second go this time? I,am in the Uk between the 2nd to the 16th Feb.

Cheers mate

What about a nice Bentley for Watson and something a little less ostentatious for Holmes – I’m thinking Aston Martin?

The point about Holmes & Watson is they are ‘English Gentlemen’ first not British, English. Now we really don’t have an English car suitable, we don’t make them anymore. But the nearest for me would be the Jaguar for Holmes & either the Honda Accord or CR-V for Dr. Holmes. As for driving round London have you tried it buses anytime or the tube get there quicker:)

Good shout! Perhaps he’d go for the ST? Something with a bit of extra boost to help catch the fleeing crims.

Black or grey Ford Focus, maybe. Totally anonymous, essential for all undercover coppers/PIs.

Hi Arthur,

Thanks so much for getting in touch, good to hear from you!

I agree, the car is performing very well and it hasn’t missed a beat in the few months I’ve owned it. It’s obviously been very well looked after by yourself!

Here’s to many years of happy motoring!

Darren

Have just seen your article in the new SMC NEWS, with a photograph of your new car.
I was the original owner of this Focus and can agree with you on its virtues. It is unique in that it has Ghia badges on the rear window pillars ( they were deleted on this model ) in addition to the badges on the front wings. The offside pillar cover had to be replaced and this came with the old Ghia badge, so the nearside had then to be replaced!
I had 4 years trouble free motoring with this car and trust that you will experience the same.
My replacement is a New Focus Titanium in candy red with same 1.6 125ps engine. This model is even more refined.

“the warmest start to October since 1895,” so it used to get a bit warm before global warming started then? Maybe I’ll take the car out for another Sunday afternoon blast!
