Default It's officially up for sale .........

A Sad day & a very hard decision to sell , but we have had some great times & now feel that the time has come for someone else to enjoy the fun



Be great to see it stay within the club ( would save me replacing the door cards )

And if his name is "Tiny" better still


Good luck with the sale mate, I'm sure you will have many offer and hopefully not to many of the numpties.........(I've seen one for half the price and twice the spec on load of boll*cks.com) that seem to always appear

Will be the end of an era, but as Halesy says.... you know it makes sense.

ESC/RS/VW has shown we can all live happily together and have a good laugh on and off the road.

i feel an esc meet to wave the new owner on from ESC HQ, wont be a dry eye in the house.

Good luck with the sale !!

another sad day, and another one bites the dust

if only i had the spare cash or Sarah was a bit older then that would be sat on my drive. lol

really hope the new onwner appreciates what an icon that car was for the ESC and looks after her half as much as you.

Good luck with the sale mate, it's a car not a museum piece so you are doing the right thing although it might not feel like it

End of an era!

I think it's the right thing to do though mate, after driving a brand new car and loving your RS so much I don't think it would ever be the same to drive the Scoob again for you.

Time to let it move on and let someone else enjoy her and turn some heads with it!

Would be great to see her stay within the ESC, but I'm sure it will be a regular sight at a lot of shows where ever it goes!

Someone mention museum pieces?

Poignant day with a tinge of sadness but also the opening of a new chapter.

The ever changing matrix of the ESC.

Good luck with all that lies ahead son.

Good luck with the sale mate, must have been a hard decision to sell a 4 wheel drive rally car to keep a 2 wheel drive touring car

The end of an era, the new owner will have one of the most (if not the most) distintive scoobs in the land
