There's still a few of us stalwarts left........

I suppose one day, when I can no longer handle the sheer comfort and effortless performance, I too may look elsewhere. Until then, I have resolved to steadfastly endure the crippling depreciation, ruinous running costs and severe abdominal pain that laughing nearly every journey inflicts on a person. Someone has to do it.

Mine's in the garage here, although I didn't actually drive it for a couple of months (not since the last time the Yoyo effed up :roll: ) it's ready for action :wink:

Anyway, where does it say "Driver's Club"? :P :arrowu:

Well we're getting into the end-game now. Dai's and Doggy's immaculate motors are the exception rather than the norm. If mine went bang tomorrow then I'd have another, but it would be a £500 job and with so many around then unless it's immaculate the only economic thing to do is run it till it drops :cry:

Back to the 100 fuel burning miles around town this week.... Gad damnit 500 miles at 58mpg is far less depressing than the 35 to 40mpg i see around here i fecking hate hills. :lol: :lol:
