clayts450 Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 TBF I did own up myself and wrote 'cheat' at the bottom of my sheet when I handed it in to Mr. Sloth at the end of class. I then drove home sobbing uncontrollably at my rookie mistake. Those missing 3cc have broken me.... gadgetgricey and Floatylight 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 I suppose 5th is fair for a first go, would have been first if people hadn't insisted on bidding on that fugging MG. clayts450 and Floatylight 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sloth in a bowl Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Here is the Cannock catalogue with hammer prices.Lot 34 (Audi A6 Quatto 3 litre petrol) and lot 506 (Chevy Lacetti with under 70,000 miles) were probably the steals of the auction but I also liked the Octavia vrs with a very fixable MOT fail list (lot 30) chaseracer, SiC, catsinthewelder and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiC Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Lot 93, the one owner Mini One convertible looks like a particular bargain. Possibly one that had a chance of surviving a year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghosty Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 It was ropey. Had paint missing on the front bumper from a prang, debadged, blacked out rear lights, spoiler from an MG ZR, bracelets round the gearknob, blanket on the parcel shelf...

Richard Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 I heard one of the staff muttering "fucking idiots" as he walked away from a car (Lot 510, Zafira, I think he'd been putting the label on it) that had a gaggle of shiters around it.

The Reverend Bluejeans Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 That Zafira was spectacularly grim. Someone paid 300 quid for it. A 51 plate Zafira with no MOT. And 1500 quid for that wanked 320d! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 It does have an MOT, it's just that the certificate isn't there. I think that's the case for nearly all the cars there, they don't come from the kind of owners who keep track of their paperwork.

Inspector Morose Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Was thinking this. Usual suspects are a railway or sum such but I’m an easy going fellow (no sniggering at the back) so open to anywhere within reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inspector Morose Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 It’s been a bit of a tradition, an old charter or something that a few of us brave the cold/excess mince pies and roll up at some piece of ancient industrial mechanical contrivances. A couple of years back was the Burton pumping station open day, we’ve done the SVR at Bridgnorth a couple of times too.Bit of steam blows off the cobwebs!
