Drive It Like You Stole It
A couple of years ago The Other Half and I were thinking about buying a new car. Our dream car was a Ford Focus XR-5 Turbo but we did not think we could afford it. When we visited the car dealership and The Other Half test drove the car, we knew it was meant to be, and so we worked out a great deal with the guy which made it affordable for us.
As we picked up the car the dealer said to us “Drive it like you stole it” and we have done exactly that. Of course if you stole a car you would be careful to stick to the speed limits and follow all the road rules so that you were not noticed by the police.. 
We have owned it for two years and have not been pulled over once.
Not long after we got the car, we went on a car cruise with 19 other identical cars. They put together a video of the day which our car appears in – but because there are 19 others, you won’t know which one is ours. Enjoy!

I loved the video Snos. It reminded me of my childhood when my father would drive the family to Jenolan Caves for a day out. My father was a terrible driver and I was always afraid that we were going to go over the edge of that windy road and down the side of the mountain. We never did…the worst thing that happened was that the car overheated on the way up the mountain and we had to stop and let it cool down.
Anyway thanks, I hadn’t dredged that memory up in years.
