    An empty feeling, a sad day........

    Well Im sad to say my Disco has been sold......

    Dion from Ballarat came for a look and 5min drive and bought it just like that........All good I thought (including the great price I got) until he drove away and I was standing there with a big fist full of cash, but I had this really strage empty gut feeling come over me when I watched it drive away from our house, never to be seen again.......

    The cash will be handy as Marie is only doing a day here and there for work, but I hope Ive done the right thing........

    I guess sometimes the heart can overpower the head at times......just wasnt ready for it, I think I need help......., I have the LR sickness worse than I thought

    Whilst you've got that big wad of cash - go buy yourself a Classic Rangie or an old Series to make you feel better You'll still have a wad of cash and you'll have a LR

    Mate, whatever decision you made, it was made with all best intentions and for the right reasons.

    In the meantime, I prescribe one viewing of the Camel Trophy DVD, followed by a subscription to Land Rover Enthusiast, a Bex and a lie down...

    I will be down your way in a few months. I will take you for a drive in my Rangie, then you will get a small fix. If you are really lucky I will let you lie underneath to bathe in the rear main oil leak...

    Grab another landy, you know you want to, as 'Arnie' says, 'Just doo it!', a series 3 or similar will tempt you, go for it! (Cheap too!)
