Yeah, the Ghia are the 'fancy ones' appaerntly.
And he's getting old (and boring) so won't go for the sport models any more. I tried to talk him into a Focus RS and ST so I could drive them too, but he wasn't having any of it

mini clubman
mini cooper
harrier silver and blue
mk4 escort pop,
fiat panda
renault 5

vulva 440 glt t
