Oh no! Just saw this. Shame looks a good Mister 2 that. Glad you are ok. Hope you get it sorted easily. If you do roffle it PM me what numbers you would choose! All the best. 

Well done Eddy, you lucky* man perhaps you could raffle the MG early?!

Thanks jo. It will live again!

He's on for a hat trick!
Congrats fella. You might want to join the OPEC loyalty card scheme too.

Well I picked it up and it drives perfectly
 
Booked in for MoT Monday so legal to drive home
 
Several cosmetic issues but I'm happy with it
 
Have a petrol station shot
 

 
And another
 
One small incident on way home....

New battery fitted and disco lights have stopped. No more flickering lights either
 
Next on list is speed sensor and IACV both of which are a bit of a pain to change.

Naturally, if some random geezer turned up at my place at 0720 and said "Oi mate, my car is like your car, only a bit different, or something", I would invite him in for Mr Kipling's and let him shag my sister, but that's just how I roll.  I don't have a sister, but let's not get technical.

Focus dash lights did a disco on way home tonight. Flashing eng management and brake light, headlights dimming and flickering.
 
Slotted in voltage reader and the charging was spiking at 17v! Eek.
 
This conincided with disco lights. Will check the battery type tomorrow and check it is Silver Calcium. Otherwise might be alternator I guess.

Substantial donation has now been made to Autoshite.

John, I will PM you my paypal for the 58 quid. If you feel like contributing further to my retirement coke and hookers fund, I wont refuse it.
 
Give WW 50quid when you collect it to cover hassle and tax expenses, donate the rest to the forum.
 
Over and Out.

You have been 100% rumbled taking that.

If we'd thought this through we could have collected each others cars and met somewhere on the M1 for a change-over a la Le-Mans driver change.
I'll probably head up the M1 so will keep a look out for prime chod travelling in the other direction

Wheel bolts are now part of the 1 point check before sales

To be fair, it's exceedingly well described and looks ace
 
 

I'm going to try to use the word Longeron more often.

Welcome back Flynn. Glad to see that you're still unhappy and in desperate need of attention.

The comments are brilliant, I love reading Daily Fail readers replies.
 
"I bought a Vauxhall diesel as an investment, now I'm going to be losing money".
 
Yeah, I've got a Astra TD in the cupboard with my Fabergé eggs.

yeah, thats another good point.  I was a bit hesitant at starting a roffle at this ticket price, but there did seem to be a lot of enthusiasm.  Hopefully future offerings hit a better ballance.
 
I'll keep it going, but if theres not a surge in interest I'll probably just scrap it and get a brand new Honda Jazz on finance.

'CELEBRITY CAR'
 
Please be someone shit
 
'This car consumes only 10 pence per mile! Hard to believe isn't it? Try by yourself! And to tell you more - this rate is Brighton (UK) city rate only - that's without going on motorways and even not with combination of both (motorway AND city). This is ONLY city rate! Unbelievable! Feel free to guess what would be the consummation costs if driven both and if driven only motorways! Unfortunately I have no time to drive that far to find out how far I can go with full tank.'
 
Enough of the jibber jabber. Fingers crossed it's some complete no mark
 
'Latvia is one of the few EU countries that dares to refuse registration of Right-Hand drive cars, violating the rules of free movement of goods within EU countries'
 
Listen, mate, just cut the fucking bollocks and tell me how it's famous
 
'As this LPG advanced system is so expensive there is no difference at all between driving on petrol or LPG – acceleration and sports regime works exactly the same way as economic regime. You will not feel the difference between the acceleration on petrol or LPG! It will be the same!'
 
Right, knobweasel, last chance WHY IS THIS CAR FAMOUS?
 
'This car has been used in largest television broadcast in Latvia and Baltic States'
 
I ask again WHY IS THIS CAR FAMOUS?
 
'This car has been driven by mega-star in Latvia Arnis Krauze and a famous journalist Roberts Blass'
 
Tell you what, if you can prove it's a fanny magnet, I'll have it
