Its Bonnie from Bonnie&Clyde. Is it just a girl thing,Oh and a Clyde thing or does everyone else get the most amazing buzz out of driving this rumbling beast. We had a Boxter S before the Ro and it never gave us these feelings (dont get me wronge it was a great motor). But this just blows me away. WHAT A CAR

I didn't do more than 7,000 miles a year in all my previous cars. Mostly because I only work 8 miles from my house. My old Astra Coupe was 10,000 miles under the parkers guide for its age when I sold it for the Ro.

My current insurance premium is very low because I declared and signed a low milage premium saying that I would do no more than 7,500 miles a year.

To answer your question, I've owned my Monaro for 3 months, and I've done nearly 4,000 miles already. I can't stop driving the bloody thing. Any excuse and I'm away I really must stop it because I don't want to put loads of miles on the old girl.

Colin's (Clyde) is at work so i spent a few hours cleaning the car, just so i could go driving and showing her off. I went to KFC (beacause its where the boy racers hang out) Pretended i wanted a zinger meal, and let it go cold while i drove around cannock and showed off some more. A couple of so called fast cars tried it on, but i left tred marks on their forheads. Buzzed all the way home and gave the dog the KFC

Yep, that's what, I feel, owning and driving the 'ro is all about. Going half a mile for some milk (when you don't need it) and putting 10 miles on the clock to do it, the 'what the f**k was that' factor, and teaching a numpty in a nova/clio/porsche/bmw a physics lesson about power and acceleration - pure enjoyment. hehe

Bonnie true story a female friend of mine is rather excitable to the extent she could partake in one of the squirt series of porno's. Last year she ws in the ro for the first time when I nailed it, at the end of the run she had been rather excited and had indeed orgasmed. Fantastic car

they called it impulse blue as it had to be a snap inpulse buy i.e.:

Salesman: We have got a black one in the piple line but it will take 3 to 4 weeks or you can have this blue one now.
Punter: Oh go on then but I really REALLY wanted the black one
