I'm soooo close to selling up!
THis weather is depressing and I think I would rather be driving around in a nice RS4 in comfort......que Derek.

you'd be best to sell up in Aberdeen and move south to warmer climes
Seriously though G, you've goy a gorgeous car with some seriously good mods on there - you'll forget all about these blues after 2 laps at EF

I think Gareth has pulled out of EF hasn't he...... something about the possibility of rain.....
All I can say is I love my Elise and it ain't going without a fight... ever!

I'm simply gutted my Elise has been sheltering in the garage rather than out being used today!
Surely the RS4 dilema points towards second car rather than ditching the Lotus???
I can't wait for the weekend and EF

I'm hoping EF will cure my blues....weather is not good. Forget rain...it's bloody snowing!

Well i'm in a corsa - AGAIN - and i can safely say i'd give up the working heater and comfort in an instant to get my VX back.

What a Day...
No Heater (yeh yeh - next week)
Sheet ice on St Swithin's St - 5 mph, ABS going mental, wheel spin in 3rd at the traffic lights - heart going at full pelt with the concentration
But - great fun
Get out there and drive it

I saw a nutter this morning on a motorbike....
Total whiteout on Ellon Road and he looked a bit shakey. Up ahead a lorry failed to stop at a side road (McDonalds) and the boy on the bike tried to take evasive action and fell off.
By the time I cleared the lights and caught him up the poor barsteward had dusted himself off, picked up the bike and was doing 5mph, both feet down, front and rear ends sliding around...
