Got it to drive to Cape Town. Half way through modifications and preparations to do it, smugly happy that we chose exactly the right vehicle.

We were looking for a replacement towcar as our old Volvo was great on tarmac but crap on grass and mud. I'd knocked up a shortlist (It DIDN'T include any green oval products !) but Jackie was insistent that she wanted a Shitgun ........ Fortunately I persuaded her to do a few test drives before parting with any cash - the result was "God, this is horrible - it feels like a truck !" and the shortlist quickly lost the Shitgun !
The Surf won easily cos Jackie likes to use her right foot now and then and the intercooled Surf flew compared to the rest of the list.
Found ours down in Poole with a bit of front end damage and picked her up for an excellent price compared to the norm at the time. We'd probably be able to buy two in better condition for the same money now ......
Life is too important to take seriously !
