But my god you have to love them.  For a variety of reasons my car has been laid up in the garage for almost 4 months.  I walk into the garage, clear the crap off the clams, put the key in. Turned it. Press the button and the wee little sh*t box just jumps and barks straight into life. No hesitation. No fuss. Just vroom vroom.

 

So, just had to go for a wee blast and even with worn cold ZZR's, on damp winter roads, with no roof on, you literally could not have taken the smile off my face with anything.

 

Damn. The bloody little plastic sh*t boxes are just so bloody addictive!

In mine right now. Can’t leave it alone since it’s been running well again.

Took mine out last Friday to get it serviced at mmg. The hours drive back just made me realise why these cars are so special.

I really do love my little sh*t box. For the money, it's just a lovely and crazy place to be.

 

Kinda reminds me of a crazy mixed up whore of a mistress, who you know you need to stop seeing and paying, but every time you see her, well shucks, you just get down on your knees and before you know it.....  I honestly do not know what I would trade her in for.  Nothing this side of £30k tempts me at all except maybe a formula ford/monposto single seater just for fun on track.

Yesterday the sun was shinning, the roof was off and a good blast down my favorite empty dual carriagway. Boy was I was happy

As stupid as it sounds I only get out around 5 times a year... every time I do, my jaw drops with the acceleration... overtaking is just completely nuts in a VXT when your daily drive is a 1.2 Fiat 500!
