What a blast......
It's like being 19 again......I was sceptical about the online performance claims that I had read, but to those whom I promised an apology, here it is. Please accept my humble apology, I was wrong. My Supercrew is gaining performance ( and fuel mileage with every tank) and although it handles like a fat girl on a trampoline, she's real quick for her size. I still hav'nt seen another, and I can't stress too much what an unusual vehicle this is for the UK. Folks over here aint used to big beasties like this, and certainley not ones that disappear up the road when the light goes green like this one does, ( at least when the road is dry, 2wd you see). Can't wait to instal a Superchip!
There are two major problems.......finding places to park, and wherever it is parked, everybody in town knows where I am. You guys will understand the difficulty with the last one. I think I'll start parking it in the Parish Church car park.........that'll ******* 'em all up.

Awesome rides no matter the road!
Hughie,
I am in Cologne and will be in Cambridge Monday and I have seen those roads and parking spots and it is a toughie with that rig. However it is such an awesome ride that it must be more than worth it. I would just say be careful backing up as just last week I was backing up out of a buddies driveway and what with my 4x4 and lid i didnt see his old '88 Chrysler POS car and I smashed the living hell out of it. Hit it at an angle going into his driver door and just damn near totaled it. My rig had some scratches on the bumper and the plastic quarter panel. Very minimal. I was amazed about how tough that plastic panel is.
Good thing he has a Screw too, so as it was he just came out and laughed but it is tagging my insurance for a couple of grand to fix his car. You will destroy whatever you hit so look out in the rear.
I live stateside but it would be awesome to live here and have my Screw.
Cheers.
