End of the road!

Hi Guys

With 82 summers behind me I have sold my Disco 4 and Twin Axle Caravan.

Time to take things a little quieter and build a few balsa model planes at home, do a little more course fishing on my local New Forest waters and even try to play my guitar a little better.

I passed my driving test in March 1959 and have driven many, many cars since but I have to say that my Disco 4 has been the best car I have owned in all those years!

Have enjoyed my time visiting the forum and wish you all very happy and rewarding motoring.

My wifes smaller Honda HR-V Auto will suit us just fine from now onwards and I look forward to many more years of happy "cheaper" motoring!!!

Regards and very best wishes to all forum members as I sign off.

Barry Gough

Well done Barry. Have an amazing retirement. This is my first year with a D4 and couldn't agree more (unless the crankshaft throws a wobbly!).

Nice one Barry😊 I’m five years behind you. We only have our Disco so it’s staying for a while longer. My SWMBO wouldn’t let me change cars anyway 😊 we had to get shut of the other car.

Hi Guys

I have waited until now to just say "thanks" to all of you who have kindly responded to my Last Post!

I will keep visiting the forum from time to time and also to add the odd funny. I must say that even that supply has waned recently and I have to be a little selective from time to time.

Regards and best wishes to all forum members!

Barry - apologies.

Somehow I missed this thread. Being a Hampshire resident for the last 65 years & of a similar age to you, I really should say enjoy life.

I do hope you will visit us from time to time.

Regards

Nigel
