Nowt sad (unless it's heading to a breakers yard) - that's stevieshags "kermitt" - has been off the road for 2 years, presumably off to it's new home having achieved the only (winning) bid of £2.5K on ebay :?

a bargain for someone, I believe.

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it


...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

Blue with ivory seats J***MKE (I think) passed us in Eleanor this afternoon somewhere South of Truro. We were both looking cool enjoying some summer top down stuff, but the traffic wasn't helping. Friendly waves all round and nice to see another on the road...
