That’s not something that happens, he was banned from all driving.

There’s another Fiesta based van as well, the Courier. Both are still larger than most people who use Fiesta vans need.

No, that’s been dead for years now. They only sold a few here too.

No, it’s needed as the tax rules are different for cars vs vans (read more efficient) in various European countries. They don’t sell a huge number, but they do sell to business who need their people to move around with maybe some tools etc.

It’s the other way around, the Connect is a van primarily, with the passenger version modified from it.

The American tax system, lol.

The magic roundabout isn’t a good enough reason to visit Swindon.

Yeah, this isn’t a new thing. One of the apps I use for navigation - either Here, Google or Apple maps has been giving instructions like this for years. I can’t remember which one does though.

The news that Friesland has gained independence and decided to become part of Norway is the greater story here!

Rumours of a ‘gentleman’s agreement’ with Lotus.

Great value for what they are. Not the most charismatic engine in the world, but there are ways around that.

They care so little about them they are only the 7th/6th largest builders of trucks worldwide.

3.5T is the max before it gets in to the world of actual trucks, then that’s a licencing hell.

3T max according to the Toyota UK site.

Not being able to tow 3.5 tons is an oversight. Since the Defender has gone there’s not that many vehicles on the market that can, it’s some pickups, Vans, and the Discovery.

There’s always been a Focus estate, just not sold in all markets.

Ford uses these plates so they can easily flip the promo images for LHD/RHD markets. It’s something that’s not strictly needed with the ease of modern photoshopping, but they have carried on with it.

I’m fairly sure it’s a firewall that drops down to stop fires spreading quickly through a large open building. The door is there so you can still get out.

Yes.

Parked on the street means it must have valid Tax/Insurance/MOT. If it’s not a road legal car it can only be used/stored on private property.
