Tell you what, for 40k it's had an interesting life.

Written off after 7 months, back on the road after 8.

Cosmetic surgery in the early twenties, boosting up the front and firming up the rear.

Broke it's TD cherry early doors, including it's tarmac rash virginity at Nobby's hairpin (Trac Mon - Anglesey).

Recently started smoking, but soon cured courtesy of my own fair skills (and lots of support/help from Flymo/YC).

Over the years we've become quite close....however I keep getting my head turned by younger, eager models, almost begging me to dump the old gal and rag them within an inch of their lives lol.
