BorniteIdentity Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 How's this for Man Maths and Logic? I've just sold the Yellow Cabriolet of Love for a combined total of £696. I've just had two of four work contracts come to an end, so fiscal tightening should really be a priority. HOWEVER. If I put £700 into the bank, it will get spent on stuff. That's what happens. You can't QUITE remember what it went on, but soon enough you're left with an empty bank account and an empty driveway. So, to save me from myself, I'm going to 'reinvest' the money quickly. However - I really can't spend the whole lot on another car, not whilst the Sierra bASe has a rear quarter that's now rusted through. I'd also like to get the proper bASe wheels fitted up with some vaguely rubbery tyres. Here's the criteria £400. Absolutely top. I'm being strict with myself for once. I lost more than this on the 306, so it makes it disposableA bit different/quirky/ ASEast Anglia. We've all travelled the length of the country to buy something shit - but i've already got that badge of honour.MOT. I am physically sick of testing cars (I've done 6 in 2 months).UPDATE: Prolly needs to be topless having enjoyed the sunshine today. If you spot anything, or have anything coming up - please let me know. I've got both an unused classic and standard policy, so age not particularly important. Obviously watching the tat thread like a hawk. Me. XoXo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxi paul Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Man maths in action. My friend says I am mad for having two cars. But it's only the banks money on a overdraft. Costs me £6.00 a month in overdraft fees. Small price to pay when you want to swan around in a gay pug like me. "Ah yes " she says "you have to pay an overdraft back" who says? The bank have more money than me . Good luck and I see your logic. Eddie Honda, djimbob, eddyramrod and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BorniteIdentity Posted July 7, 2017 Author Share Posted July 7, 2017 £400. Absolutely top. I'm being strict with myself for once. I lost more than this on the 306, so it makes it disposable This is the only rub. I really absolutely have to get this Sierra watertight, because otherwise the unobtanium trim gets wrecked up - and we'll very quickly be on for a weldathon in the boot. The Raver is smashing - but realistically it's too much for me by the time it's been MOT'd etc. It's not too much, far from it. It's just I have lemonade money.
