Gone, But Not forgotten

For the first time in a long time, I've managed to reduce the number of vehicle in the Madscanner household (including the other half's stuff, we're now down to 6...), having sold Fiero #3 - the early '84 2M4 with the right-hand drive conversion - on Saturday...
A bubbly young woman made a 550-mile round trip journey from Wales to pick it up, leaving me wistful, but $1000 better off (until I spend it on the other Fieros, I guess).

Well, that really sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I usually have to pay bubbly, young women to make me feel wistful.
You should do up an article for one of the UK classic car mags. You have an assortment of Fieros, and good auto writing skills. They always do articles or features on some sports cars, but I don't think I've seen a decent Fiero one.

We haven't sold a Fiero yet, but kitten & I have departed with a couple of motorcycles over the years which have made us feel similarly. It's funny sometimes how a vehicle can get under your skin.

Practical Classics did an article on Fieros in their Jun 06 issue - featured a friend's orange (no, it's red - it only LOOKS orange
) 85 GT.
That's about the only article I've seen here - most of the magazines focus on really old, really new, or mainstream cars (like the F-bodies...).
