I know, I watched the videos back, done so much on it over the years. Can remember putting gearbox back in at 5am so I could go to crail 2 hours later or starting mapping at 4am so I could do the local drag racing that morning.

Need to grow up at the end of the day. It's the end of an era, there'll be more good memories to come though, just not from the Corsa.

Some of the places I've been, and views I've seen doing biking up the mountains in the Lake District is immense. As much fun as descending skiddaw at a rate of mph was, I was actually gutted that the cloud was that low we couldn't see anything when we got up there. I'm getting old, I appreciate different things.

Couple of quid here and there. I don't think the 4500 asking price is wild either.

I disagree, I thoroughly enjoyed doing that for years, as do lots of people. Personally think you are weirder for not liking it, but I'm not here to spam and abuse your choices.
