chodweaver Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I've been a passenger and driver of your Activa and that car has impressed me more than any other. Nice to know that my instinct was not wrong - that they were the best thing since sliced bread. Must get a go in one.... But it's a sad state of affairs that 'some day, all cars will be made this way' is very, very far from the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Spares & Tyres Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Ah, but is the troll aware that he has trolled you?In my lame attempt to troll a troll it appears that I have been trolled. I have heard nothing back from this person. I assumed he just wanted to weigh it in and make a quick couple of pounds but even at £80 he is a timewasterIt must be the modern thing. These 80 tonite m8 people must just be doing it for a laugh rather than actually wanting the car for £80. Now I know.

You then look like a chunkyweasel (although offering 80 for something up for that money isn't great) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorrisItalSLX Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Today’s grin, the Jag keys. It amazes me how Jaguar were still putting flying plug holes on things well into the 1980s. Also, I only just realised that the other key has the Austin Rover logo on it! richardthestag, Skizzer, greengartside and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rainagain Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 It’s vulgar and obscene to talk about money, but my missus has never really had a lot, far from it in fact.She inherited some after the sad loss of a very very close relative, and after having been entirely snubbed by the biscuit arsed bastards in a posh London shop, she went to another just up the road and spent a truly eye watering amount on a handbag and a couple of other bits. Chuffed to bits for the girl, no one deserves it more.Sarah Millican did a good one about this when in a posh shop she was buying something and commented how nice the wrapping was as the assistant wrapped up her item. The assistant then went on to say in a snooty voice how some people come in and buy cheap things just for the wrapping. She came back with “well who’s doing the wrapping and who’s doing the buying?” stonedagain, D Spares & Tyres, myglaren and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beko1987 Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Haven't really done a thing to my car since before shitefest bar diesel and screenwash, so thought I'd give it a vacuum out (well, trying to), and have the steering wheel cowling off to investigate the non working horn. Must give it an oil change soon too, then a new windscreen then it's into winter shitter mode until the mot!

bramz7 Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Today was quite satisfying. Took the C5 up to chrisvjm and he made me a very nice breakfast (really appreciate that) and then took me in his C6 to The Revs to collect the E36 wagon. The Rev is a very nice chap indeed, and he undersold the car in my opinion. Drove it back and loved it. Superb on motorways but fun on twisty bits too. I think I like it. Get back home and the Oldsmobile buyer (from Facebook this time) is waiting with his Transit to take it away. He chats old cars with me for a little while and loves the R11. He tells me he is banger racing the Oldsmobile. Good. Cavcraft, D Spares & Tyres, Exiled_Tat_Gatherer and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have had a punt on the "other" P4 (the roughasabadgersarse matt black one) if I'd got myself into the hall a bit sooner. Your one did sound very sweet when they started it up though - assume it has a decent turn of speed being a 110? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95 quid Peugeot Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 The one we got is not too bad at all. I hadn't looked at it or even considered one before it came through. But the mad Morris traveller prices put mrs 95 off. After I'd paid I nipped out the back got the keys and drove it home not to far at 55 miles but lovey drive at 50-55mph Skizzer, Brodders and alf892 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saabnut Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 I have a P4 105 for spares if you need anything and a fair knowledge of the cars if you run into trouble. The 110 has steel doors as opposed to the ally doors of all other P4 models, but they can be swapped. purplebargeken, 95 quid Peugeot, oldcars and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
