On Saturday I traded in my much loved MY97 for something a lot less conspicuous.

I have owned my scoob from new for 2.5 years and have had a wonderfull time.

Unfortunately after the theft of the car I cannot justify the risk to my family for the sake of a car.

The new car will remain a mystery (I only chose it as it was one of the limited number of second hand cars the garage had in stock!).

I will still remain a BBS'r (if this is allowed!).

Thank you all for the advice and fun remarks.

"Puffa equipped" - my ribs are still hurting!


I'm off to pick up a take-away curry (it will most probably be cold by the time I get home and I'll be cursing for letting the scoob go!)
