Meet Ermintrude...

:shrug: I suppose I'm just pining for Saffy :blush:

It is a good clean car - although has seen some gritty sponges in it's time - and if I stop aiming for amazing mpg it can be fun...but only in a straight line :lol:

 

I think the key here is that you have to realise that whilst your not in a car like a zed your not actually going to enjoy driving. Your primary aim is/was cost cutting so you need to get into that mindset now.

 

In my previous cars, I would love going for a blast and even a trip to the corner shop was an experience. Now it's a purely functional experience.

 

It's like being married to a Porn Star for years and then going back to being single; it's just not as much fun as it used to be :(

Give the poor thing a modern name. It's like naming your children with a name they'll be forever teased about at school. :p:lol: Car looks just fine, and if it's a bit swirly nothing a solid detail couldn't handle. :thumbs:

 

:lol: I know - but I thought Ermintrude (the cow) was quite appropriate for a diesel barge.

Yer I know :wacko: but I can't accept I won't enjoy driving anymore :shrug: I might as well take the peasant wagon :lol:

Why didn't you just go and buy a Vectra :lol:

On a serious note it looks very nice. Functional and a bit left field :thumbs:

What is the latest on SAAB? Has anyone bought the car company or has it finally gone for good?

:p:lol: Vectra wouldn't come with as many bells and whistles but the GM parts was one of the reasons I went for it as it 'should' be relatively easy to source parts and cheaper to fix than a Beemer or Alfa (I really shouldn't tempt fate should I? :wacko: )

 

Its ok... :blush: I WILL stop this self indulgent whinging eventually :thumbs:
