Separated after 9 years

well she has gone!
After 9 years we have gone our separate ways, been replaced by an 11 plate 1.9DCi megane cc gt line.
On first impressions.
She drives better it has a reconfigured gearbox where as my old 04 would do 70 at 2000 rpm this one is over that so its lower geared making it more punchy but I bet fuel economy will not be as good
Handling is a lot firmer.
Roof operation is s#*t compared to the old karrman roof its really quite rough in operation literary throwing it in boot and slamming boot behind it, my old car in total 13 years old and over 140k on it but still put that roof in the boot better than this 11 plate.
Keep ya posted on how it performs and what breaks/falls off first. Sad day was Saturday leaving my trusty old diamond of doom at car lot
Hopefully happy days ahead
