I just wanna pipe in here and say thank you to all of you for taking the time to help Kara with this decision and/or for just showing your support either way :)

And, Gos, I can categorically say this forum is going nowhere :grouphug:

I wont try to sway you one way or the other as I'm sure you will do whats right for you and your bro (and Frank of course).

good luck with whichever way you go.

hope you will still keep the forum active.

best wishes

George


Thank you George. :grouphug:

I've been debating for a while now and tried to put off making the decision for definite but when Steve approached me with the ZS it forced me to confront the situation.

I still love Fs & TFs and trust me when I say the second I can afford 2 cars I will be buying Slave II (there is actually a Slave II in Star Wars as well so I'm being screen accurate! :lol: )

Regarding the forum, it will be a cold day in hell before I let this forum die out. This forum is not about my car, it's about my friends. :piratebang:

Absolutely! And as Slave II is green I will be returning to the BRG clan! :lol:

Until then you'll all just have to take the mick out of me for being the only non-F/TF owner on here! :doh:

well thats a shock just a thought could you put slave 1 into storage maybe somebody has a garage you could long term loan and then the only extra outlay would be the cost of a 'new' car?

Unfortunately I really just cannot afford to buy a car. We're selling loads of stuff as it is to raise money for moving costs! It's costing us £2,500 to move house and considering jointly we've probably got £50 in our bank accounts we've still got a long way to go! :lol:

Wow, never saw thus coming but family comes first. Having owned both a ZS and a F both cars have their qualities and quirks. I sm not going to sway you either way as it's too personal a decision to make but I hope you make the right 1 for you.

If slave 1 goes so be it just make sure it goes to a good home. I left a tf & zs in NZ when we returned broke my heart as titch had 4k on the clock and the z had 18k on it but was not possible to bring home. Cars can be replaced family can't. Simples

Of course not! You and Frank can go in Flopsy's boot if I can get her working again.

+1 to CJJs earlier post about a Saxo or similar though!

You and Frank are the main reason I kept Flopsy despite her constantly having the flu or something. I've really enjoyed tinkering with you, and making bonnets fit etc. Things wouldn't be quite the same with a silly tin-top! You both made me see what the love of the F was all about.
