Albert Ross Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Rover P5B for £300. (Ended up used as a donor for a flip front Mk3 Zodiac Estate!)Decent grinder for a fiver.Half a Deer, after I hit it with the Landy, many years ago, handed to me with the finder's reward, all because I hit a fluffy critter. I got 60 quid, the pub landlord got the venison and I got free casserole for a week...........and beer.............The keys to a derelict chip shop were also given to me in a pub.I relieved it of it's ferrous items and handed the keys back...........DEAL!

andrew e Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 A SD1... Well here it is, paint flat as Holland, firing on all cylinders now (thank you HT lead fairy) and exhaust blowing like a good un. Plus side? Took a 09 Focus RS, seems to be dry inside and has a Kenlowe (is this a plus?). At London money it was a hundred pints. Give us 6 weeks and you talking a very pretty car Before Deox, red lead, primer... After awaiting surface filler... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AXrescuer Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I just remembered, I secured a deal for my old Suzuki GS550 down at my local. The landlord had got himself a ban and couldn't use it anymore. Piece of shit it turned out to be, about the same quality as the McMullens AK pisswater he used to ply! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pillock Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I bought an Astra GTE. Although technically it was an eBay purchase, I was sat in the pub bidding on my phone so a combination of tiny tiny pictures and too much lager made me miss the fact was was 85% rust and 15% shit.
