Time to say ta-da a bit...
Its with great sadness that ive sold my beloved D4 (ol'yog)
as some that know me, I do not skimp on the upkeep of my disco's, this being my third now. so it was a hard decision to let it go,
swmbo and I weighed it up and keeping a 7 seater was no longer viable
used to love the space for family, but all but flown the nest now
i hardly use the rear space to its max, even with my tools on board
£600 tax per year + derv @ 27mpg
on the plus side, I sold it to my Bro in law so still see it daily (after all the time effort & money put in)
I might even still have a drive in it
I'm still in the Lr fold but something different for me and nippier
I am already signed into the sister forum
over the years this forum has proved invaluable gaining much knowledge and sharing a bit too.
everyone on here have always been great
hoping that Babyrr is the same
Ive not been on here as much as I used too as life just seems to get busier
Id like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to those that have helped me over the years, the members that i've met
I will still lurk about from time to time as no doubt bro in law will require me to maintain ol'yog but not
wishing you all well
kind regards
Mick
