It's not what you drive, it's where you've driven it that counts!

Re: Another Scotland Tour
Glad you like the pics. It was another fantastic trip.
Regarding the vinyl stripe, I been pondering it for about 12 months, but in the end just decided to go for it, and I really love it now.
I see too many people posting that they'd like to do something to their car and being put off because other people don't like it. Who cares, do what YOU like.
The response has been really great, especially from the kids. My car mentality aint that much different from that of a 10yr old boy. So if the kids like it, that's the only endorsement I need

Re: Another Scotland Tour
Going to skye next month for a week, unfortunately need to take Vivaro as canoe, tent, bikes, fishing gear and hillwalking and climbing stuff won't fit in Zed
Had a good day today in Balloch with maiden trip in new canoe seen loads of Zeds all looking good a couple of 04, 54 plates 2.2 and 3.0 roadsters, mate couldn't believe the cost of these as he said " they look a fortune"
Again in Vivaro as no room in zed.
Was out in it at 9am for a wee blast with roof down (went to shop for rolls and papers(( took 30 mins for 5 min drive )), and the sound is growing on me every time above 4k revs its sound fecking fantastic

Re: Another Scotland Tour
Cracking pics, up to your usual standard
I'm having a mini-roadtrip next week (was supposed to be a full week but having to be cut back to 3 days) and we're thinking about Skye. Was that picture from the Mallaig-Armadale ferry? If so, any problems getting on and off the ramps with the cars? (doing a bit of prior research!). We'd then hoped to head further north taking in the Bealach Na Ba to Applecross but we've just not got the time...
Glad you like the stripe because I'm not so sure myself

Thanks for the ferry info - I've used it before in a previous car and couldn't remember having any issues, but it was a "normal" car I took that time...
Re: Another Scotland Tour
More great Pics RT. I wouldn't be able to relax on that ferry, i would be to worried about door dinks on the car
