Default Its Been a Pleasure but its Gone

Its been a good 2 and a Half years with my car, nothing went bang, only issue I had was Stereo, but IM group swapped it for a 930BT so that solved that one. And they also gave me a Free 320R upgrade remap.
The car itself was fantastic, MPG wasn't that bad to be honest, My wifes new 1.4 Turbo Zafira Tourer only get 280 to a tank pootling so not much between em.

The car gets collected on Thursday and I will then do without for a few months whilst I wait for the new cars to come out.

Im going to have a look at Audis new A3 and BMWs 4 Series as well as Mercs new CLA. but I may just bite the bullet and buy a cheap run about and save cash for Holidays and nice stuff.

Wish you all well, and I hope Subaru release some nice STI later down the line.

I only had one concern that you cant actually speak to IM anymore they block you now, email only and my good friend Mike Woods left and gone to Jag, is this a sign of things to come who Knows.

But the cars will be good for a few years more as always too many Modders about for them to even die a death.
I,ll keep popping in when stuff comes out you never know I may buy another when they release something that's sexy.

Laters guys

Ted

P.S

930BT and STI matts and full set of wheels with winter tyres on ebay soon

What do you expect from a thing THAT size with the aerodynamics of a brick, and a TINY engine with zero torque?

Why doesn't it surprise me that someone who drove a hatch is looking at boring Audis....LOL

The hatches are a p*ss-take, so that's what I did.

He can say so if he thinks it's rude.

Bell-end? How dare you? Mind, at least I'm masculine, and very, very useful, not to mention sensitive....

And any way, is there SO much difference between a Rover 25 and a Rover 45?

I find the term "bellend" to be quite a playful one.
