    HI Pomie!
    Love your comments!

    yes, there are those who we wave to, and they look at us blankly....but then you get that one fellow "driver" who appreciates the choices we made!!!

    Talking books...hmmm...I gotta agree with that one sounding old though mate!!!!?????

    Enjoy the drive. I reckon that having a passion for cars is why we ae here after all and not out driving white fridges (sorry, I mean corollas)

    Cheers,
    Tigger.

    On another note when i took it to get its 1000k service or look at, they stuck the next service sticker on the windscreen for about the same time next year or 15,000ks but in the digital display it says SERVICE IN 23200 KM or 606 days
    so who is right ??

    the reason i as is i worked for a rental company back in the uk late 1990's who had hundreds of ford transit and they were slowly before i left changing them to MERCs due to better resales at the end of there hire life and longer service intervals
    so was maybe thinking the yeti is on the same lines with longer servicing intervals ??

    Anyone ......

    Hey adouzzy

    Yeah its front wheel drive, i to thought that a 1.2 even a turbo wouldn't be good but boy was i wrong, I took the fabia monte manual out first and was blow away buy the speed of the little thing ive had MK2 escorts back in the uk with 2.0 fitted and this little 1.2 would leave it for dead upto a certain speed, so you gotta take one out for a test and i am sure you will be surprised and the 1.4 vrs fabia supercharged and turbo ed is mental, I would love a vrs yeti in that metallic green
