Default Well, she's gone!

I finally got rid of the scooby today, so as of now I am in a black civic VTI!

So if you see someone in a black non-scooby waving, it's me not some crazed loon.

Hardest thing I have ever had to do driving away, and all I can think about now is how much I miss her already.

I will get another one as soon as I can, and I will still come along to as many of the meets etc as I can but for what it's worth it has been two fantastic years and it has been a pleasure meeting and knowing you all.

No ****!!! I have nearly had a couple of biggies already!! Am having to teach myself to be a little more careful with throttle application because flat-out all the way is not the best policy any more!!!

Hmmmm...... Cheeky Bar-Steward.

Ive got a JDM Prelude now anyway & will be keeping well away from any rabbit infested roads.

Matt, I knew you would come around to being the owner of a great car.

How does it feel to upgrade from Bodykitted Mondeo to a Bodykitted Rover 400?

:-)

Pregnant missus and house-prices basically mate!!! Apart from spending too much money on mods all the time which was getting silly!

Still the Honda has an exhaust on it now (thanks Mr Dino!) and just needs a bit firmer suspension.............

my misses just had our 2nd child back in sept..we've recently moved into a new house....it's frickin hard work mate.
i still think that if the car had "normal" wheels, no spoiler and no bonnet scoop..she wouldn't know the difference between the scoob and a primera or something.

the last time we argued about it i told her that if i bought a sensible car of her choice i'd thrash it so hard that it would cost the same in petrol as the scoob.....it didn't help!

he he

I just wanted to free up some cash for the house deposit really, will be back to scoobies in a couple of years, no problems.

Danny, sorry mate, if you had got hold of me last week would have been no problems, but all I have left is a spare MAF, spare brake pad retainer clips, boost guage, Spare left-rear hub assembly and that's about it!! Anything there you fancy?!

Oh and a set of Prodrive mats from a P1, including the big boot mat.

As for the curry night, that should be still on, but Kev is in charge of that one!

Thomas, you ain't too big to get you over my knee bitch!!!

Baz, I can't believe that mate, get yourself an older version as well as a practical car. If you only use it on weekends (a-la Simb2) you can keep costs down and still have a toy for yourself then!

Full of good ideas me!
