1 year anniversary!

guru · 18th December 2012, 22:29

Well actually I've kind of missed that, but 1 year and a couple of weeks ago I was on a plane to some strange country called Scotland to meet Sir Tam of Rotrex and my new car!

It was (and still is!) the furthest I've travelled to buy a car but well worth it.

Well 1 year later I'm very happy to say that all is well with the old girl, she's probably wearing around about 10,000 miles more now and flew through it's first MOT with me with just a couple of cheap bits to sort. I've just treated her to new Mintex discs and pads up front and a service but other then that nothing much to report, just very happy reliable motoring. So far I'm not even bored with it, which is very unusual for me, hopefully I'll be able to report an equally uneventful motoring year in another 12 months!

Ahhh the biggest question is what was Tam doing with TGB? Yet there she sits in the back ground!

I also wonder why this has not come up before? They could have been soe useful information I am thinking..

I knew it came from Scotland

Ahhhh TGB is White Gold. Hmmm I wonder if that is the Norfolk Meet on the Broads. I did go down there but the photo does not give enough detail for me to be sure. From the way the original post was written I thought it was taken in Scotland ........................................ as I believe I mentioned TGB came from Scotland.

Well to be honest TGB is easy to spot with that registration and the way it's spaced on the front. It does stand out. My intention is to sell the registration number still but I am now meeting a bit of opposition from The Old Dragon ...................................... she says she likes it

Oh well we shall have to see what the new year brings with it.

guru · 19th December 2012, 23:34

Yep, it was indeed the Ranworth meet!

Jay · 19th December 2012, 23:49
