Shugmobile - you couldn't see the stickers as the 3" of road grime is cunningly coloured the same as the car :mrgreen:

Also spotted the Shugmobile on the M8 yesterday - good to see it running. Even Laura commented that she'd never seen it running :mrgreen:

Gee, thanks (I think)

It spends the vast majority of the time totally fine - it's just I post about when it fails (unlike some on the forum) to give an accurate impression of ownership :mrgreen:

In 6.5 years of rough-loving abuse from me, it's had one engine let go - twice, technically (which was tuned like a grenade anyway) an electrical glitch and the recent HG issues - that's the only three things that have actually had it off the road. Sure it's had problems, but very few that see it properly sidelined.

Wahay! Usually spot people and get no replies, so this is nice. I feel even happier now that it's rare to see it on the road :)

I will try and say hello next time, will be in a red ctr.

Well to give an honest impression - mine's in getting HGF repairs at the moment. So it's a Y plate 206 for me at the moment.

Wasn't necessarily a poke at you mate - I've just lost count of the people that slag my car & I then find their's has sh*t itself and they've neglected to mention, which can be a little testing when you've poured a lot of time, blood, sweat and money into it... :lol:
