I had a test drive a few days ago....

The dealer said "pop it into Sport, put your foot down and feel the kick!!"... so I did, and waited.... and waited.... and ran out of road, then he said "see... she's a beaut, ain't she?"....

300 horses'... yep it sure has, but they're more like cart feckin horses' than stallions!

Aberdeenshire . Wow , now thats a journey and a half just for an MOT .

But that just goes to show what a good dealership SP`s is if people such as yourself will travel so far to use them , we in Cumbria are lucky to have them and they support our club aswell . A grand bunch of lads @ SP`s. I take it your local dealership in Aberdeenshire is Pants then ?. It seems good car dealership are as rare as rocking horse droppings these days , a dying breed.
