    NLDI no thanks!! lol. What cars you into? :)

    Munchki thats brill well done :D
  • Not a popular choice, but Ford Sierra's are my weakness - currently driving a shoddy 2.0 estate whilst I finish one of my projects (I hope this month money permitting) and then the estate gets the chop for two reasons.

    1. Its worth more in bits
    2. I have found rust in places I wouldnt feel comfortable selling a car on without repairing them, and to repair them would cost more than it would sell for.

    Now the one on ebay, its less than 5 minutes from my house, an economical diesel and I have just been outbid on it at £112. I know I shouldnt but I am still tempted to :o
