But sometimes you just have to move on..

Unfortunately they're never worth what you put into them, have you seen the RB5 at Scoobyclinic, probably £15k+ in that car and it's up for £8k.

You won't regret it once you get a FSTi.

It'll suit your needs and still make you smile.

Always sad to see your car go and as everyone says you never get back what you spent over the years, but time to move on.
