Its been a while since I posted on these hallow pages!! But I am back; and both to seek and offer advice - if that is possible!!??
The story begins... well a few years ago now; when I bought a 172 Cup. To say the car was a pleasure, and the most fun I have had in car is an understatement!! For nearly 4 years that little car held a place in my household fleet; nay a place in my heart.
Other cars came and went, as I got older, more supossed exotic cars arrived, an M3, a Tamora, eventually a 911 (996)!! None of these, and I mean none of these, were as much of a hoot as the 'little blue car'.
They are all gone, and the love of driving is on its last legs!! I am now in a sodding blue oval derv, just to bash out the miles. Broken by this communist gov, who likes to kick the s**t out of the petrol lover's. I find myself at a passe', I don't want to let the petrol in my vains dry out, I can't face spending a s**t load of cash on something that I don't know will satisfy... I want the 'little bue car' back!!!!
So my question or rather questions
1) Would you ever buy back your old car back or am I being a nutter?
2) If you would, and it was a cup, what should I be looking out for, as in problems with car? How can I make sure she is ok? i.e. If Mike172 is still out there, if I brought her to you, and said "make her like new" is it really possible??
3) If it was, is it going to cost the same amount as a small country just off Africa to do?What would I being looking at?
4) Can a car live forever?
5) Am i being a nutter?
Adivce:
If you are thinking about getting rid of the 'little blue car', think long and hard about it!! Sure there are faster, better specc'ed, even better all round cars out there!! But for stupid fun factor, that shocks and thrills in equal measure, and sticks two fingers up to those c**ts in the gov, I am not sure there are.
The last request of this long arse post; please, please, please help me regain my joy of driving.
