end of an era :(

Post by jungle-jim »

well she's finally being picked up tomorrow :bgrin:

we have had good times together and not many bad!!

here's a little poem........

i loved her smile
i loved her speed
i loved her comfort
i loved the need

she had style
she had grace
she had ability
to give chase

on the track
on the road
it mattered not
you shifted your load

i miss her sound
i miss her name
i miss her stealth
such a shame :(

i got a pair of wheels for a fiver today so it was off with the shocks and brakes :D..........

not really.

i had decided to sell her and fund a more dedicated track weapon.

as usual, when i have something up for sale i crash it lol.

i hit a kirb after some slight torque steer and it made all 4 wheels point in all directions.

i crabbed her home and sold bits to fund the MR2.

i have finally got my arse into gear and bought a pair of front wheels to get her out of the garage in order to remove the shocks and uprated brakes.

she is being collected tomorrow morning.

i have the MR2 and a rover 200 family car so really need to get rid of it.

she was quick too. ( ask rex ;) )

she had a lot more potential but the sub frame section was shot.

another
