[Bobthebeard]

Need a diesel!

Brb!

Brb! Indeed!

[DVee8]

You have me here

[Station]

Leamungton spa departure.

 

[Station]

3 pound kwoffee. Had lump in it. Thought it could've been hardened rat poo as I swallowed it.

 

[Station]

Ahh the countryside!

 

[Station]

Leaving Reading station now - scarily close to the south west. Home of where I have bought every car from in the past two years.

 

[Station]

Car collection trips are crap when it gets dark early! Bah

 

And also when I write them

[EssDeeWon]

Keep em coming, no idea what this could be so im guessing a French Diesel........

 

 

Pug maybe?

 

406?

[Junkman]

Oh wait... Leamongton, Reading...

Would the destination of this train journey be Camberley by any chance?

[rml2345]

Diesel and the south west?

Series Land Rover?

[Station]

Leaving Wokingham!

 

 

I want WOKING! Why can't Woking be in Wokingham?

 

I am also sat next to the toilet. There is a man having a dump in there while talking in his phone. I suspect this as I hear the clatter of a belt buckle on the pan. Who poo's in a train I ask you?

 

[Station]

No 405 collection from Camberley!

 

It's miles away from there, the car is German, and it's a petrol.

[EssDeeWon]

Great, I should of guessed that from the opening post about you wanting a Diesel LOLZ!!

 

E30 325 then

[Dave_Q]

Need a diesel!

Brb!

the car is German, and it's a petrol.

Autoshite logic in action!

[phil_lihp]

This is an excellent thread.  I think it's a VW Polo.  

[eddyramrod]

1974 Porsche 911 Targa.  Obviously!

[Junkman]

Trabant 601.

[Station]

 

I want to stop off at that WOTW Martian thing.

Expect to see a grainy, dark photo of something if I can find it.

[EssDeeWon]

Helloooo anyone there??

[dugong]

He is feeling the quality of his German car. 

Leave him alone.

[ruffgeezer]

Or he's cracking one off in the train loo before being unceremoniously unveiled by the sliding door, much like a shit speedboat on Bullseye.

[Junkman]

That oh so reliable last forever German shit broke down.

How often do I have to tell you pplz to BUY BRITISH?

[drum]

Must have been a reliable volksvaggen

[Squire_Dawson]

Indeed Buy British. Never would've had this trouble with a Morris Oxford diesel, even if it would have taken him twice as long to get home.

[ruffgeezer]

Station's new car was not as expected:

It was actually a French Diesel, I just said German petrol to throw you off, mwuhahah.

 

Junkman guessed correctly, so he wins a free ride in my car. Although he cheated as he suggested it, so he now loses his free ride in my car. Sorry.

 

It's rough, but did the 120 miles back fine. It is 21 years old believe it or not!

 

 

It's just past the 230,000 mile mark, which I believe is just over 1 light year in length.

 

 

'Seats are clean', said the advert.

 

 

Yeugh!

 

 

Kia mats.

 

 

Stereo - it wants a code, and the little clippy that holds the cover shut is broken.

 

 

21 years of 1G's worth of earth gravity has taken it's toll. Also need a rear parcel shelf cover thing.

 

 

 

I am used to this as my Micra only has one wing mirror, and only noticed late after picking up:

 

 

The worst fog I've seen in years.

 

 

Most of the trim is missing. It has a few dents. The front wing has been half resprayed using a lighter shade of blue, and using precision geometry to 'feather' the paint in.

 

 

 

I bet this is a Lucas pump.

 

 

 

Overall, I'm quite pleased with it for £350. Although I beg to differ on the 'long MOT and tax' (both run out in May), I'm hoping to go to Germany in April and didn't want to use a tiny two seater petrol car like I did in August.

[scruff]

Kwality acquisition.

 

That's a Bosch pump BTW

[messerschmitt owner]

you're lowering the tone of the neighbourhood (again!!!).

 

The reg is appropriate for such a shite car too!
