extremely hairdresser

only sporty car I like at the mo. is the vauxhall VX220......... and given it's being discontinued you can pick 'em up relatively cheaply I've heard... around £20k brand new.

Build quality of the VX was pretty poor when they started it out. My mate had one. It was really really bad!!

Went like a rocket though!

sell it? I keep my vehicles 'til they fall apart Gio. Only time I've ever got rid of one was JEG my SRi Astra...... and I cried as she drove down the hill. Still miss her, best car I've ever owned. Same with my ickle ZXR400 and the LC

if you ever go down the scrappy.... all those little cars/bikes tossed aside by their owners like so much scrap metal.... it's a sight to make anyone shed a tear

vehicles are not just for commuting, they're for life

So why don't you keep the pile of rust it'll become on your drive?

Can you imagine taking a pet to the scrapyard?

My garage is almost all Italian at the moment.
1. The Falco.
2. An Alfa 156
3. The wife's old Punto.

Odd one out is my old CBR1000F winter hack at the back.

Me and the missus both like Italian food as well.
Oh and Rossi is god!
