One thing im worried about, did you get the proviso from the guy at your work thats having it he will offer it you or here maybe if he should come to sell it? The more and more i see it recently ive got a fervent dislike of cars being sold outside their 'scene' as it were, as unfortunatly it seems thats how cars dissapear forever. fingers crossed yours wont.
Still got the Rover, but it's going to have to go as I will clearly never, ever do anything with it. It's been sitting in Mum's garage since 2001 and I last did any work on it in 2003 or thereabouts!
It is a crying shame Citroen don't use hydraulics in the smaller cars any more as then I'd have no problem at all with the Xsara. As it is, it's just a slightly boring sensible choice. I did consider a C5 but the parking is limited both here at my house and at work, so I didn't want anything that big.
My mission now is to move somewhere with a drive by the time the C6 has fallen to my price range
I will ask the buyer to recontact me if he loses interest, I didn't think anyone on here was interested in it but Chris Salter will definitely take it. At least that way it will stay within view!
I drove home this morning, in a blizzard at 3 am, in my daughters little 1200 Opel Agila. Part scraped roads with ice patches and drifts across and it never put a foot wrong.
