Default Giving up smoking was easier than this!!!

Been without my scooby for over two weeks now!! the engine died and it was taken up to David at API last friday.

Been driving my dads old mazda mx5, not quite in the same league as a subaru! my mates have stopped taking to me! they think i'm gay!

Can't wait to get her back.

yes indeed gayboy count yourself lucky.
Mine went into the garage before xmas, couldnt get it done until at least the first week in jan..
so what did they offer me first as a car..mmm fiat punto. no thx guys, next choice.
Fiat Brava..oh ok if that is all you have, then so be it.
Picked it up, guy at garage said, bloke before had snapped off the bonnet release, so no way of opening the bonnet and yes there was no water in the windscreen wiper bottle...!!!
so all over xmas/new year had to drive around in a ****ty 1.3 or whatever it was italian piece of junk and on the way up to my sisters at new year (around a 3 hour journey) had to carry a squeege bottle and refill and every time i slowed down to around 30-40 or at a roundabout, open window, squirt water across windscreen and activate the wipers at the same time as trying to drive the fecking thing !!!
NOT EASY....

Also had various heaps of junk whilst car has been in garage including this beauty



it wobbled dangerously at any high speeds (in excess of 50mph), the wing mirrors all slanted down whenever you went above 30mph,no stereo or cup holders, veered to the left all the time and was a death trap.

so................count yourself lucky.......
