I’ve not been around for a wee while, life has gotten in the way but not in a bad way. Not sure who’s still around but some of you might remember I bought PVRs 1-owner ///M back in 2014 on 24k. Roll forward to today and this just happened 😎

She’s still the second love of my life at 100k and 15 years old, and not looking too bad for it. I know, I could have cleaned her first inside and out but this was pretty meticulously planned and I shot my wad without thinking about that 😂… she’ll get a bath tomorrow.

Hope you’re all keeping well 👍

It did :oops:

Reset trip computer at exactly 99k, then yesterday I was on Google maps working out where I could go that was 7.3 miles away and in a guaranteed quiet road so I could stop without causing a menace. Seriously sad, but had to be done :roll: :D
