I have put my beloved Turbo R up for sale, after twelve years of ownership. The ad should be appearing in the classifieds soon. Those of you who know me, and know the car, will be shocked, but needs must. God I love that car, I'll cry buckets when it's gone cry

Jeez... that sucks. Not a lot else I can say really.

Pop round if you want a cuppa and a sympathetic ear.

I don't actually know what to say, Warren.
You've had that car nearly half the years I've been alive!
Gutted for you and hope you can bounce back with something equally great in the future smile

Gosh Warren, that's such a shame. There was many a fab chip run in that car. I hope things change and you find a way to keep it. Mike.

Still would have loved to have followed you at the DMS Aston charity day, when the monaro behind you said he was sideways smoking it around the bend lol

Now if I could get BG into Aus under the pre-1989 rules, that would be a great idea but as she is a 1990 - Grrrrr.
