By popular demand I have decided to create a thread dedicated to the rusty smurf.
"Born in 1984, Elmsworth Beast Major has been a true gentleman of his class from the very beginning. He was very well presented and possessed items of the latest technology such as a tachometer, air conditioning and a driver's side boot release lever. He sported a 'super responsive' 1.6l engine which delivered the masses of power to the wheels through a very sturdy 5 speed manual transmission. A selection of tasteful accessories were added to increase his appearance and performance such as cloth seats, CS-X racing wheels and a fully functioning centre console lid - rare for his model.
After a very stable life in the city, Elmsworth Beast Major moved to a small shire to the North and sadly began to mix with the wrong people. His upholstery was torn and the Northern weather took its toll on his sensitive skin and fragile body. Elmsworth Beast Major's life slowly began to fall apart and he was often found laying outside in the rain, not able to make his way indoors. At what seemed to be the end of his life, Elmsworth Beast Major,was forgotten and deemed 'unregistered' in the local shire's scrolls. He was then taken to the markets and placed for sale in front of a public forum. No class, no dignity, and no rego.
Fortunately, a sexy, handsome, smart, witty, attractive, funny, much loved Gentleman saw potential in Elmsworth Beast Major and offered to relieve the merchant of his burden. He was then taken to the residence of the new master and so the work began and very soon - Elmsworth Beast Major began so see a glimpse of a future in the hands of Svenmate Research and Development."
