You looked at it.:eek:

I call that unholy influence.

I swear it was fine before that.

Last thing happened, couple of months ago, someone broke in, rifled, found nothing, took the face off the stereo and dumped it down the nearest storm drain.

The kids and I had the face out of the drain before we worked out that it was ours.

See, it was fine.

Test drove an 850 when wife was shopping to replace the last stolen Subaru. Wife said it was, 'sluggish and boaty,' and this was literally after she stepped from the driving seat of the 130.

Think that one had a head problem.

Lived here for 17 years.

Toyota Corolla wagon stolen.
Datsun 510 stolen twice and recovered within walking distance, by us, both times.
Subaru Liberty stolen and was getaway car for a servo hold-up spree.
Subaru Outback stolen, dunno what it was up to yet.
Ford F250 4wd, frequently got the stuffing beaten out of it by passers by, particular enthusiasm for wing mirrors.
Subaru L wagon, beaten, broken, run into, trashed, thrashed, totalled.
Toyota Carolla hatch, broken into a couple of times but never damaged.
Land Rovers never touched. One time someone stole some ram out of a computer I had in the tray, and someone has pinched my sad stack of $2 store nylon rope:eek:.

Wife's happy to drive the Defender, but doesn't want a Land Rover for herself. Her alternatives to a Subaru are an X-trail, even after the dog we had in Hobart, or maybe one of those Mitsubishi inported 4wd van thingys. She won't hear a good word about Volvos.

Now if it was a Renault 12.

double bugger.

And it is back.

Looking very clean and shiny, and damp all over the inside. Apparently to detail it they removed everything, cleanded it and put it back again.

It's now looking significantly better than it did at any other time since we bought it.
