Title: Au Revoir from Pat
Post by pat on Jan 31^st, 2008, 7:47pm

Well folks, this is probably my last posting. 'Er Indoors' 2.9 has gone to my(soon to be ex?!) mate FOC. Took it on its maiden voyage - "ran like a dream". An experienced Scorp owner would know better than to say things like that {} ;)
Come return journey - wouldn't start. AA came out, couldn't find anything wrong but got it going. Again ran like a dream till he got home then wouldn't start again!
Now running and "getting better all the time". Intended selling it on but has been bitten by the bug and will now probably keep it.
Estate still off road and will probably stay that way.

Truly, guys and gals , I shall forever be indebted to you all for the help and advice I have received.

Not only that but the chat and banter has been fun and downright hilarious at times. }{ your sense of humour really is something else. It must come with Scorp ownership. (They're coming to take me away Ha-Ha)

A final big thank you to you guys who give up your time and money to run the site. Where would we all have been without you?

Take care folks.

Good luck and best regards, Pat (and June) :-* :-*

P.S. Boring old Mondeo has never missed a beat. I'm not used to this peace of mind!

Betting is that the estate will be back on the road sooner rather than later. Why should you regain your sanity.
All the best Pat. Keep looking in

It certainly isn't - it cost me £440. ;D
Seriously, thanks for all your good wishes, guys. As much as I will probably wish the Scorp was up and running again, I think(hope!) I shall remember the headaches and common sense will prevail. :'(
P.S. My mate IS taxing Scorp 1 and keeping it. I shall point him in this direction!

Good luck for the future to you all, Pat.
