Hello you lot!
Another punter for the ST this afternoon. Of course there's been the odd "Can I put a deposit on it while I get the rest of the moey and I'll come next week?" No, you can't. Well, unless you want to buy it with a non-refundable full asking price deposit.
HapPea Saturday! xXx

Good Morning everyone, in work today at a very rainy Gatwick...it's very quiet but hopefully it'll pick up with flights to Portugal, Gibraltar, Faeroes, Israel, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand,
Brunei, Iceland, Gibraltar, Falkland Islands, Faroe Islands, South Georgia and the Sandwich Islands St Helena, Tristan de Cunha and Ascension Island....

As for driving a long way to see a car, drove to Plymouth from Bournemouth to view a 4200. I saw rust on the A pillar (an unlikely area normally). The selller was a rally engine tuner and had it for a few months and I came to the conclusion that it was CAT C/D, and with his connections had put it reparied in order to flip it. I wasn't convinced so walked away from it. He seemed p!ssed off with me but it's a better excuse not to buy than too clean oil or wrong colour (as happend to me, despite the advert having pictures!)

ST now sold and driven away. Only slight shift on price, which was as I wanted. Had great fun giving it a final thrash to demonstrate it to the now new owner.

Well, I bought that car as a stop gap and affectionately named her "Ali, the sexy b1tch" as I Intended to have her as a 6-month fling on the side before getting the permanent replacement. She was such a good ride that I kept her for nearly 4 years! Now sold to a 28 year old who has almost certainly just dumped more on the insurance than on the car itself!!!

HapPea days!

Good Morning.
After painting in the morning yesterday and then a nice drive out in the Boxster to go and take a look around a Medieval village it was back to painting.
Now off to walk to the Bakery for goodies and then back to painting certainly good exercise for free :)

Hello you lot!
A day for a spot of gardening, a jog and making a bit of music for evening church.
How long should I wait before I flog a set of Ford ST alloys on ebay?
HapPea Sunday!

Morning, all. Class outside this morning (last one) then trying to replace the external temperature sensor on Mrs C's Giulietta. Hopefully a simple job ;)

Have a great one
