Time to say goodbye

Recommended Posts

After nearly 50000 miles of fun with my silver vRS estate it's time to move on. Malcolm was named after the TV advert for Tunes - "course you can Malcolm" - because no matter the challenge he rose to it. Crossing the Pyrenees on the way home from Spain with a boot full of Rioja. Blasting round the back roads of Hampshire. Making the drive to work more fun than it should have been. Overtaking in a flash. Averaging 40mpg overall (on shell nitro of course) and never sipping more than just a little bit of oil.

I took the advice from everyone on this forum and swapped the headlights for xenons which stopped night driving being scary. I also swapped to Goodyear 4Seasons winter tyres on some nice Dezent alloys for the cold weather and enjoyed less noise and a much comfier ride which compensated for slightly less grip. (I've got them still - just put them on eBay).

I am missing the little chap. I hope his next owner enjoys him as much as I did.
