Dippy got a reaction from Essex V6 in The mystery of the 100 mile FE Victor
Guilty, I took a 4000 mile car in almost perfect condition sold my Audi A6 and went back to driving old cars everyday. I used it for everything I would have used the Audi for over nearly 2 years and it never broke down.
I did have to hit the starter motor a couple of times and a couple of small jobs, rear brake cylinders and new exhaust and that was it. Took it to 16000 miles and strangely it wasn't the winter that caused any damage but the summer sun on the velour and dash trims which started to fade.
I used it to go quoting jobs for my business and Im sure I got more jobs as it proved a good ice breaker when turning up somewhere new.

Those are pics not long before I sold it and started using the Princess. I loved the Vauxhall but it had a manual box and I prefer autos.
The Princess was bought to take over from the Vauxhall but a big change in my life and job meant I was working from home and needed something big to tow with and a big loading area so I sold the Vauxhall, kept the Princess just for fun and bought this for towing as you can never have too many V8s.
