I'm Smudge-less...

[Rich]

Well that day I've spoken of many a time on these hallowed pages came today as I watched Smudge dispappear up the road in the hands of his new owner... A sad day indeed after many happy years drivin' n tinkerin' away... A tear in my eye, no less...

But then I turned back to my driveway and a smile adorned my face as my eyes fell on my new baby... Merlin!

That's all folks. Stay tuned for another thrilling episode coming your way soon!

[Captain Jack]

Really!?! I would have thought you'd still have smudge til it died a death and various parts used for household and garden furniture/features.

[Nick]

Oh my god, after all that effort and modding you've got rid of smudge! I hope it went to someone nice?
Go on then what's merlin? I'm thinking A ZT in xpg -that's my guess.

[Lee121]

Merlin......a spitfire inspired engined car??????, that should wake the neighbours!!!!......crap fuel economy tho......def good at keeping the jerries at bay

[Will Dig]

the plot thickens.......................

[Lee121]

Has Smudge gone to a good home???.....and what's replaced it???

[Rich]

Smudge is now with somebody who appreciates all the hard work that went into making him a most unique car and I think they'll look after him.

As for his replacement? Well let's have a bit of fun here!

Out of suggestions so far, 20% have gone for a ZR TD, whilst the other 80% have gone ZT of some description with models from the CDTi to the V8... I'm surprised about this balance as I've mentioned my interests quite a few time. So, let the guessing continue...

[Nick]

So long as its not an mgtf I'll still talk to you

[Matt Parker]

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Well it makes sense as to have the new car what you want you need to move something on and it would never be TC so it had to be Smudge, hope the new owner will keep and enjoy him for many years to come

[Rich]

You never know Matt, you might still be doing the MoTs for him...

And Nick, a new suggestion but a pretty daft one. I think you know me well enough!

[mgketcha]

NO!

[Tony]

Have you finally relented and decided on an MG6?

......
......
....

No... thought not.

I'd guess with the ZR TD.

[andyhells]

i could always pop round and sneak a peek!

[Lee121]

Montego Turbo???

[Rich]

Montego Turbo???

Now that's a good one... Hard to find one that's in a good clean condition though!

I will say one thing... This thread seems to have livened up the forum a little. I wonder how long it'll last... Until the next pub meeting perhaps?

[Nick]

I'll take that and raise you a metro VDP !

[cejsmith]

dont be silly we know he has sold a kidney and brought a nice MGRV8

[Rich]

I'll take that and raise you a metro VDP !

Aww, that was my first car!

dont be silly we know he has sold a kidney and brought a nice MGRV8

Now let's not get daft here... I'd have to sell TC too and that ain't happening!

[Captain Slow]

Don't tell me...you've bought a VVC Streetwise so mine isn't lonely anymore?

P.S. it'll be making its first SmS meet appearance at the November meet

[Nick]

I know A VDP was your first car, it ended up on its roof didn't it

[Rich]

I know A VDP was your first car, it ended up on its roof didn't it

Yes...

[Nick]

Could've made agood project for a convertible

[Rich]

Nah, Metro convertibles are ugly and only 3 door models too. Anyhow, I wasn't really interested in cars and projects back then. I was still very much a biker at heart...

[Lee121]

I was still very much a biker at heart...

Is it a bike then??.........you getting back into leathers!!!!!!
