Shoulda used Floyd's "Wish You Were Here" as the soundtrack instead.  We all feel your pain, Bob.

Perhaps when you come to Soviet Canuckistan, you can go to the opposite extreme - a 3/4 ton Suburban 4x4 with 33" tires and a 6.0L V8?   Poke

Depending on his final destination the logical solution would be a 2008 STI. Smiley

I can't believe it's been that long either  Shocked

Man, that's one hellava little orange buggieer! Being a car so pure in design, and something that wasn't available over here till recently, it was definitely enviable.

Must be sad to see 'er go, but another ride is undoubtedly around the corner. You can say you've had one, with the photos and video to prove it  Grin

Was that a slip?  Then again, maybe not because we all are hurting over this.

Nope. We all ache inside. Except Scaerio...He's too poofy. 

That's because your cars have a/c, power windows, power top, power steering, stereo, HID's, power locks, keyless entry, leather seating surfaces etc.  Wink

And he doesn't pay for them.  ROFL

My condolences too Bob , but I gotta be honest, they screwed up that car on you. You noticed the steering wheel was on the wrong side right?  Grin

Make sure the next car you get has it on the left - you need to prepare for Canada. Wink

Sorry she is gone.  It will take some time to get over it.

Get a Sony Playstation II and Gran Turismo 4.  My son just loves the 2 versions of that car in the game.  You can even pick your colour   Wink  Loves to drive it on the dirt/gravel courses   Shocked

Yeah, and we can't even rib ya about having a sissy power top anymore either -- ya ripped it right out to be more Lotus-like!

Bob, I'm very sorry for OUR loss too.  Having said that, before you were our resident nerdy British guy with a car most of us here could only lust for.  Now you're just our resident nerdy British guy.  Clearly there's no need for your Peugeot bragging, so, all in favour of kickin' him out now, say 'Aye!'
Okay, okay... we'll give you a few months to get your senses and pick up one of those hot Renault Espace vans (as is most fitting for someone in your place in life) or something equally grand to redeem yourself.

 Cry Cry Cry Cry Cry Cry Cry Cry Cry Cry Cry Cry Cry Cry Cry

So it really IS true what happens when kids come.  How much discomfort is associated with a vasectomy anyway... and how would the pain compare to the loss of Agent Orange?

Sad indeed Bob.  Cry

I don't know what to say...

Well, she's gone.  Sold before the mileage got too high and various other small reasons but mainly 'cos I've had my fun

Don't forget this part. The next fun machine will come along soon enough.

Until last week I'd never actually seen an Elise or an Exige in the sheetmetal polyester-resin composite, let alone driven one to work every day for a couple of years.


This had the missus in tears...

All Welsh girls are good women,  Smiley Bob you can probably fit 3 of you in a new Z06 Vett when you get here anyways so look forward to having one of them next. I am sure our fuel prices are more affordable so you don't need to be in mourning all that long.  Smiley Grin

Hmmm, S2000 just won this year's Top Gear survey.... hmmm....

Yes Jeff, I am now just a nerdy British guy, with a 1.4l diesel car that does 0-60 in about 4 minutes! ha ha...  Jusht you wait you meddlin' kids!  Tongue  And yes, I blame it all on children, they are evil!

Hmm Ovr, don't know whether to go for less raw, or more raw.. ha ha.  Anyway, next purchasing decision will hopefully be left-hand drive, so I will need to call on all you experts to help me out there...  What was that Barrie, a Buick Le Sabre?

The last of my pics from the Sunday before..
