How's this for a blast from the past??!!!
« on: 03 August 2005, 15:56 »
Came to work in the Ferrari today. It went into garage this morning for an idle problem, and now needs some parts so I can't take it home tonight.

Which means I have to get home somehow......

A browse across the company car park revealed my old company smoker......




I was told it was proper f*cked, but just went for a blast up the road, and it seems ok (if a bit reluctant to rev compared to the Scoob and Ferrari!!)

Will drop it into my local stealership tomorrow and get it all serviced before it goes back to lease company. Just hope I donlt kill it on the way home. Wish me luck.......

When I got in it this afternoon for a quick test drive I said to myself "It's not the scooby, it's not the scooby, it's not the scooby" just to make sure I didn't attempt some stupid handling manouevers and die.  :grin:

That said, it was nice being back in it again. I do miss the comfort/build quality/interior  :undecided: Scoob is great fun, but its that cheap for a reason, and that reason my friends is an interior that could be paid for with a £50 note, and still leave enough change for a KFC bucket (followed by a tub of tasty ice cream).
