After 9 years of onwership it is a very sad day. An end of an era. The Corsa has gone to live a new life in Scotland.
Hope she has fun.

So it only seems fair to post the last pictures I took of her.

Yeah very shit, but time to move on. I've had great fun with it and it owes me nothing.

Yeah Robbie bought it, left here about 10.30am to head home with it.

I thought that with mine tho nic.
But then eventually a time did come and I had to bite bullet. It is quite hard after such a long time and effert put in to get rid of something and surprising how attached you become to something inanimate.

I didn't cry tho!

I time of fiddling with cars is over really.
I love the v6 and lazy driving and comfyness. Just not the mpg. I have done 12000 miles in it in 7 months and it's so nice and smooth, but at an average of 33mpg, you can only imagine how much i have spent in fuel.
But hence the thought of getting the 888 diesel.
I get the mpg but I also get a pretty decent car to satisfy my track day urges.
