When she had to be scrapped it was like losing mum again

Same here and my dad when he got rid of his Jaguar XJ sport 3.2 V8 now that went like a rocket.
I teared up a bit when Andy aka Trikey took Christine and drove off, I though someone in the local area was cutting onions.
Few months later got her back and she's still going strong.
Really touching story there and sorry about your mother, I'm the same as well if my dad goes I'll never get rid of his Lexus LS 400 that stays here, That's my dad pride in his fleet of cars he's owned over the years.
