Yet another Update.....

[Boot Hill Bandit]

You have taken my old car to new levels Andy. So impressed and so proud of you and I mean that. This car has always been in need of all the TLC she could ask for and more and thankfully you have provided that.

Even now you know, I drive the Vectra with a smile on my face but miss the ZS when I remember the driving position, the smell of the unburnt fuel from the exhaust on start up and the burbling noise on tickover and then the howl she would make going through the tunnel in Norway backing up all the traffic to a crawling pace straddling both lanes and gunning her hardto 100mph watching all the traffic move out the way to getting the speeding fine for it a year later.........to worrying Evos and a Delta Inergrale out the way on the Lydden trackday and returning to the pits with the brakes alight smoking away.......to the realisation of baby Ruby on the way and being the good Dad and calling it a day and selling up to Ross.

You've done a stirling job Andy.........keep looking after her like you are

However I am very disappointed, you waited until I had gone so as "not to spoil" your pictures with a proper colour one in them!

The glow of TY was making mine look orange!!!

I would of liked some photos of all the cars, but they packed us in so tight we didnt get a chance!!

Jim, you would be proud of the car, does look the biz, and sounds fantastic, did say I know someone that would love to buy it back.

As you say, family comes first, but rest assured the car is in good hands.

Come a long way from Auto Barn, now, just 30 odd miles up the road, small world.
