I think the phrase is gutted...
I'll not pretend I'm entirely happy about the change, but I have bought myself a cracking car to use now. I've avoided the word replace, because my new Merc is not a replacement, just an alternative reality.
However I know Ranj will look after the S8, I thought he was remarkably restrained by waiting a week from agreeing the deal to picking up the car. It wasn't too bad watching him drive off, but immediately after I jumped into the Merc to swap its parking spot and then I realised that I'm going to miss it.
