MR C did this years ago to my car while I was in Ireland, and I had to sort it when I came back :nono: The guy who came out said there is a dedicated team at the AA to deal with this error its quite common, so don't feel too foolish :hee:

if its a Ford Escort then it ceased production in 2004 so that must be a very well looked after car, Of course the classic Escort for me was the RS2000
my dad had a yellow one like this until he pulled out in front of a car in the 70s. I suspect he was somewhat over the limit but back then you had to be so you did not worry about not wearing a seatbelt and the fact everyone else was pissed up too.

Aw....I had an Escort years ago....loved that car till sone bastard stole it. The police found it but made me go and pick it up and told me I might need a screwdriver to start it....the thieves stole not only my tape collection....but also my love for it. So I flogged it and got a peugeot 205 instead.
How much diesel did you put in it? It can be sorted

I can't tell if people are going along with this or the joke has gone over their head but it's got me laughing either way.

My husband had a nice sky blue mk1 escort a few years back, his pride and joy and someone ran into, wrecked the whole front end and it got wrote off, he was actually devastated [emoji23]
He has a stardust silver st220 v6 just now with the original red recaro leather interior etc, hes done a lot to it and it is rapid, but hes thinking of selling it, it's only used when we take it to car shows and even at that its turning into a money pit, people say no dont get rid they will be worth a fortune in the future but imo they will never hold money like the older fords
