I bought my 1st sammy blind
, an ebay special... then i got a plane, a bus and a train to go get it... from GLASGOW!! bloody long drive home that was!
Oh and the 1st time i'd ever driven a zuk was as i drove away from the guys house after handing over the cash...
still i only had to get a hovercraft and a ferry to get my current one... from the isle of wight haha. If i ever buy another i intend to find one much closer to home

Dedication bud.
Everyone said i was barmy for doing a 600 mile round trip just for parts. I've been told the same anout wiltshire "so you're driving nearly 300miles to go drive round the countryside".

Now that really is a long journey! I think 30 miles is about the furthest I've been!
I gave my mate a lift to aberdare once to pick up a roof for his escort xr3i, and it turned out to be crap and he didn't buy it... he paid my petrol though so i dont mind haha
