I have enough issues getting in and out of the Rover but at least it's a lot bigger and I can do it.
I have noticed the trips here but I have a thing about driving on Motorways at the moment where it freaks me out.
I haven't driven on one for over 6 years, even dual carriageways make me jittery and I have no idea why.
A & B roads I'm fine.
I'm going to Powderham, unfortunately I'm booked in with the TOWC but I did used to like that show so won't let that put me off.
Plus I'm going to the show out at Chudleigh.
Will have a look around to see what else is available locally as I know there are plenty of shows or at least there used to be.  |
It is hard for others who are unaffected by seemingly irrational situations. I say seemingly irrational,because whilst I do appreciate your problem,I have to admit I cannot understand it,and am sure others are the same. I can't imagine not being able to drive where I could. So please forgive my suggestion if it offends, as I know some things are easier said than done. Have you tried driving on a motorway in the early hours of the morning,say 3am and perhaps at a weekend? To perhaps build a little confidence on the motorway,and allow you to drive at your own pace without others driving down your neck so to speak.
As for the op, I have often looked around various club sites,for different cars I have had,but never felt welcomed or supported with my car. This is the first site I have joined like this,let alone paid a membership for!
