RobT Posted July 25, 2018 Author Share Posted July 25, 2018 You're doing a good job selling this to the punters Talbot, so please carry on! If it's OK just to do the collection, smoke about in it for a week, then sell it on, I'll have number 26. I haven't the time or money for any more cars but just a collection would be fun. I've no problem with that at all as it's essentially what I've done, albeit in a far more expensive way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talbot Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 You're doing a good job selling this to the punters Talbot, so please carry on! I really genuinely like(d) both my old W210 and my current S210. Not for being exciting.. they are somewhat Germanicly boring to drive, and the 3.0 6-cyl diesel in mine does drone a bit, but they're well engineered cars and give a solid, comfortable, sure-footed waft, which then changes to a mad dash for the (non-talbot)horizon when you plant it. A couple of weeks ago I drove my car over 2000 miles in 10 days, over half of those towing a large trailer. Easy Peasy. Do it again tomorrow. The S210 is also the only estate car I have ever owned where I can fold the rear seats down fully without having to move my driver's seat forward and then end up looking like an orangutan driving a cosy coupe.

RobT Posted July 25, 2018 Author Share Posted July 25, 2018 Sorry folks, this has now sold to a very nice shiter who has dug me out of a hole. I had bought it with my holiday fund, so rather than camp out in the local park for a week I can now have one foot in the Algarve. skattrd, bramz7, rantingYoof and 28 others 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Furious Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Well, its disappointing when a Roffle gets cancelled and all the hype and anticipation is suddenly whipped from under you....but well done that man and a good result for the seller. When it stays on the site you know there is always a chance of it coming round again. RobT and NorfolkNWeigh 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
