# a bloke i know had a mercury like that.
i had a convertible ford consul at the time, when they were side by side it made mine looked like old pram.

# I had a big old 60's Dodge
Was great fun, you had to book cornering in advance. You'd turn the wheel and sooner or later it might start to look at changing direction.

# ha ha ha YES! i know exactly what you mean about the steering
mine was absoloutley terrible when it was raining i had it sideways going round a roundabout once.
it had vacum operated windscreen wipers that slowed to a crawl when you put your foot on the gas.
also when cornering in the rain, a full on posidon adventure water pissing everywhere experience.
it was a fucking cool car though despite all its faults i wish i still had it.

# It is considerate of them to write such helpful advice as 'DODGE'
in large friendly letters on the front of their vehicles though.

# Its very size was enough
double decker busses used to give way to me. It wouldn't go through a width restriction, or fit in a standard parking space. I got it stuck in the spiral on a multi-storey.
It was the most impractical car ever built, and I loved it dearly.

# Big old American iron
cornered like a wet sleeping bag. Horrible things. But put 'em on the motorway with dirt cheap gas and just eat up the miles...
