rust in peace
Well , (i'm filling up as i type) she's finally gone to a better home, i loved her so much she kept me warm provided me with tender
loving cups of tea, i even slept with her on a few occasions, she was like most girls tempremental some times, refusing to play, just
didn't want to know sometimes, she coped with my ample frame with no complaints, she even went swimming with me and two mates at
hunstanton...remember neil...
yes my trusty VW van has sold today 80bhp of slowness...but like all things ive traded her for a more athletic version, 180bhp to be
exact lwb , air con, alloys , sat nav, blue tooth, tow bar in mettalic black..pick her up next week
To Infirmary and beyond..

Ahhhh, it'll never be the same again! Never forget peoples faces when you started driving into the tide waters at hunstanton while they
all parked up and waited, we made though and were first on the water!
looking forward to seeing the new one

Hope you sold her to a good home and you got a good price

Sorry to show disrespect, but this thread let me down. I read "Rust in Peace" and thought of the Megadeth album. I thought this was
going to lead to a promising musical debate. Shame really.... Anyway, good luck with the new one: pick up the album to play in it

Seconded Shem - performance is not about power but power-to-weight ratio. Having to haul Mr lard arse about will result in Col's 180
bhp returning 0-60 figures a little slower than Al's wheelbarrow.

Thirded from me. I have to work with him, and all he's gone on about for the past (what seems like forever) is the new van.
I wonder Col, does it come with a reinforced chasis to cope with the added stress and strains of your lardy butt?

your right kitefish its up to me and you now matey. you cant beat a vw like we got, the smell of fresh air coming through all the
window seal as you start to hit 60mph down hill, the wind blowing through you hair(reminder must replace window seals) !! 1st gear in
the wrong place cd player i can only hear if i'm going slower than 40mph,
and of course there is the 50 50 chance of it breaking down if/when you get to your destination you cant beat the excitment, its never
ending why would i ever want to get rid of her.
col why did you do it dude
dont you eat of a bitter fruit!!
