So last night I bought Rytaylors old 2004 Monaro 5.7 VXR. Have to say you couldn't buy a car of a more decent bloke.

Done my first few hundred miles in it and in love already.

Am going to try get involved in as many meets as possible. For now I'm just enjoying driving driving

I'm based near Dundee and work up in Aberdeen. I have a company car as well so it'll mainly be used at weekeneds only for the time being.

So today I had at good gander under the car to make sure everything was all ok. Apart from the exhaust needing a new rear hanger, it's all looking good. Clutch occasionally smells/judders though, weird as it had an upgraded LS7 version only a few months ago. None of the mechanics believed the car was mine.... The joys of being 23 hehe
