out of our new age wrx we get 300 to 350 per tank full. My mrs said this car is about the same as our old classic 2.0 sport. She drives the car all week in and around town so the mileage is good i think compared to you other lads

Went out for a casual drive around 5.00pm ,drove up to the carting track showed the lad and his mate and the misses ,then drove a little further out towards tetney took the right turn up near thorsby the road that you have taken a few times paul after saltfleet you know the one twisty but single track in parts.
Anyway to my point started to pick up a little speed round the twisty lanes came to a brow instinct told me maybe there is a car coming the other way and low and behold there was ,
had to take evasive action as to avoid a head on with the misses and kids in the car .
Ended up just missing the other car 2 wheels on the road 2 wheels sliding down the embankement shat myself think that it will never happen to you think again who knows what is hiding behind the next bend .
This time had a lucky escape maybe next time wont get away with it,should no better but i have learnt my lesson.
Please take care lives are to expensive to loose i acted like a proper W****r LUCKILY EVERYONE WAS OK THE KIDS ARE OK THE WIFE A BIT SHAKEN UP THE CAR STILL IN ONE PIECE BUT A STUPID MISTAKE AND IT COULD OF BEEN ALLOVER NEVER AGAIN !!

My missus says she does'nt bother to check the fuel gauge any more because every Sunday in the early hours the Petrol fairy pays a visit, and later on in the day it cleans and washes the car too.

Blind corners, brow's, over taking on hills, I never do it, if I can't see I slow down, It is'nt worth the risk, even when you are on your own.

Especially when there are little people depending on you, Sound's like you've had a shot across you bow's fella.

point taken calcars

glad your ok. i think we all been there. i used to be a fecking loony up untill i wrecked my pride, joy and savings. id post some pix up of the damage i did but i never took any pix. didnt want reminding. call me sad but i still have a recipt from scoobyclinic for £1019! that was without buying wheels!

after neil died it realy hit both me and vic how easily you can just die. the things we do in our lives (not just cars) and get away with is mental.

then again i live for the moment but i do try take care. easily carryd away though.

peace out

(the mrs) the only P1 you'll be getting paul is a P100 for work. For 1 you aren't getting rid of MY car and for 2 i aren't getting a new set of wheels so be told the boss has spoken. Have you asked if you can go out to play with the boys tomorrow you will have to be a good boy and do as your told cause i am getting seriously worried about you scooby gay boys.
