Seems like ages since I've been on and appologies to any one I may not have replied to.
I had a bit of a health scare the other month and although I know now its not a major issue, it did tend to focus my mind somewhat on the future.
As some of you may know I've been running my Lexie as a taxi, and the punters loved her but the time has come for me to retire her from the taxi game due to my refocussed mindset.
SWMBO who is a florist has been moaning, sorry strike that, urging me to get a small van or a more practical taxi with larger carrying capacity for large floral displays and as her business is taking off and after my little health scare, I've capitulated on the proviso that another LS will be on the drive as soon as we have enough spare cash to get one. I've had to get another taxi, a Citroen Xsara Picasso diesel and although its alright, its just not the same relaxing experience that Lexie gave me.
I did consider keeping Lexie on the drive and sorting out a nice exhaust and some coilovers but insurance requirements for the taxi not withstanding a withering look from SWMBO soon put pay to that fleeting notion!
I'm in two minds where to advertise her as she is not going to fetch top dollar and I'm not expecting much plus I never got round to replacing that gas injector yet (might just do that if the weather holds). I will need to get gold membership to sell on here so it might just end up on fleabay but I would rather get less money and knowing it was going to a good home that to end up on a banger track!
Every time I drive the Citroen I feel like I'm cheating on Lexie! It can't be healthy how much we all get attached to these cars!!
Hopefully when things improve I will be getting another one and SWMBO anounced she liked the look of the car Doc Martin drives, and that was BEFORE she realised it was an LS.......Got her!!! Que evil laugh! Like I said I'm down for a while but not out.
Any way I've got loads of reading to do, feels like I've been gone for ages.
Kind Regards
Pete
