2009-11-15 : Goodbye, my Honda Integra Type-R

It was [almost] with a tear in my eye that I waved goodbye to my Honda Integra Type-R on Sunday the 15th of November 2009.

She had served me well over the nine years of owning her (well, apart from the gearbox rebuild, the new engine and the 3 times she was smashed into by other cars).

No longer will I have a cheesy grin on my face as I drive down Dean Road on the outskirts of Longniddry, knowing fine well that I'd be just about to hit the gloriously undulating and twisty coast road, ready for revving her up to 9000rpm before throwing her into the first corner.

Mind you, to be fair ... that was the reason for me needing a new set of front tyres every 6000 miles!!!

Hopefully her new owner will let her play some more on fun roads :-)
