Fancy admitting it's his dad's!

Oh, what a mess. My mum used to have a viva when i was a kid. Horible thing, the vinyl seats used to burn our legs in the summer.

my sister had one briefly when i was a kid

when i was even younger (!) and we lived in america, my mum had a ford pinto with chrome piping round the vinyl seats, and chrome buckles on the seat belts, and chrome door handles inside and out. really not cool when you live in a hot part, like north carolina, in the south lol

I learnt to drive in a Viva, and I had a Viva HA which I bought for £45, new rings and it was good to go for another two years. It was just boring white though not a nice paint job like that one.

and when you got out you'd stuck to them and it felt like someone had ripped your skin off.....

My dad had a viva gt until 1980!!!

Yikes!
Scramble the taste police NOW

It's got a porthole
and a leopard skin interior
and a fleece on the dash

Makes a Focus look a bit bland really

I once towed a Bedford FG lorry with a Viva. I was brave (or something) back in those days!

The pressed steal rockers are good for a chuckle especially when the push rod pokes it's way right through one of them

All I can say is RUN AWAY!

Nice one, sad that folk think that looks "nice"


A heavy squint maybe....
