I'm going to miss you old friend. Yet you still sit on my driveway paralysed. Reminding me of the day we passed my driving test. Your ****** crackling old radio, the miles you'd go for me without a grumble, and that night we effortlessly out ran that flashy peacock Ferrari from two roads down. Your ice blue metallic paint and cream leather interior. Classically understated. Your hefty old school body panels (felt like we were trying to move a building when we pushed you defeated and exhausted to the side of the road). But you were solid, a tank, and you always kept me safe. Roddy Rover, my first car. I'm going to miss you old friend.
