Title: It's at home 2.
Post by: amigov6 on 16 August 2008, 23:42:45

Another MV6 made it home today but under it's own steam. What a baby, mid range overtaking ie 50 to 90 is breathtaking, endless grunt with no need for a gearchange & i'm learning how they settle into a sweeper where the CD would hang on but be wallowing!
    Thanks to Broocie & family for the home cooked lunch (stovies) & warm welcome. Wish we could've stayed longer.
     The Beastie has a new but loving home. :)

Furryboots? I'll have to google that! Hi Debs, love you, Hi Daz, love you too!!! :D Look at the clues. "Black Beastie" "Stovies" (Scotland) "Broocie" (hotel21). Been a long day but a good day. 8-)

I am suprised that Broocie has sold his Beastie, but it is a really nice motor you have had :y

Furryboots means whereabouts

Didnt know it was actually Broocies car you were buying. I thought you had bought a car from Scotland and Broocie went along for the ride, or at least he found it for you.

So it was Fife you were at then.

Enjoy the Stovies?

If its Broocie's you know you've got a good one ;)

Cheers all. I was surprised to find the Beastie for sale, purely by chance & for a very fair price which needed no haggling...easy deal. :y
   Broocie let her go for personal reasons & wanting a nice new as poss Elite est which he will need for a new interest. Discretion dictates leaving him to divulge but Debs will approve!!!
     Most of you know i'm a tart with my cars so the Beastie will continue to be pampered in the manner she has become accustomed to & deserves. I know i'm a lucky so & so!!! :D 8-) :)

Piccies taken after a full machine polish & handwax, glass cleaned in & out & all blacks dressed. To be fair it was petty clean to start with.

Furryboots. Just cottened on. I use a similar saying for "fair enough" starts with furry & rhymes with m*ff. Blokes say such things while delightful ladies tut & roll thier eyes in despair at our childish behaviour. The stovies with crusty bread were spot on! :P :P :P

As it happens, got 4 rims in the garage, 2 with (worn but legal) F1 tyres but have some lumps and bumps....

Yes, the boat anchor....  Actually, good fun to drive as long as you dont want to get there in a hurry...
