+1 for that.

That doesn't seem an excessive fail sheet to scrap such a decent looking motor surely. I reckon if you give it a bloomin' good wash and put an ad up here, someone would surely pay in excess of 262 quid for it. I would if it were and auto.

Just seen this over on the blue forum. Seems like a bargain to me. https://forum.retro-rides.org/thread/214848/320d-touring-138000-miles-bedford

One life etc.

Love that Sceptre, I'd even break my 'no manuals' rule for that. A car I've wanted all my driving life, but never owned. Alas, well out of my price range now I fear.

I can recommend the W202. Best car I've had for a good while.

Looking nice Ken. A credit to James and your good self.

Thanks everyone for the good wishes regarding Mrs Tet.

Thanks John.

I'm trying to get 4 x 16 inch Merc wheels and tyres from Torquay to Rainham, Greater London. Can anyone help? A pm would be delightful. Ta in advance

Tuesday is Mrs Tet's birthday. Wednesday is our 20th wedding anniversary. Thursday is my birthday. We were going to try to have some sort of celebration Covid permitting. I booked the three days off work. Towards the end of last week, Mrs Tet got a call from Barts Hospital. They want her back in to have another stent put in as the one she had done after her heart attack last year looks like it's narrowing again. When has she got to go in? Yup, Wednesday, our anniversary. We're both a bit gutted, but we realise this is much more important than celebrations etc. So, on Wednesday, she will be on her way to that there London in an ambulance at 5am, and I'll be at Tetley Towers worried bloody sick until she returns. Oh well, always next year.

I tend to use that link road between the M4 and the M40 at High Wycome now, just to get away from that frustrating 50 limit, and twats sitting in the middle lane at 40 mph.

You want a driving experience? Then do what I did yesterday. Get yourself a DAF LF seven and a half tonner. Drive to Martin Lane which is off Cannon Street in the City of London. Find Martin Lane closed to all traffic. Phone chap who is expecting his delivery of 10 office chairs. Arrange with said chap to meet you outside. Meet said chap, back across Cannon Street right up onto the pavement, and I mean right up. Unload chairs in about 10 seconds flat. Drive off of pavement while traffic is being held. Be on your way. A real fun driving experience and I got paid for it.
