LimitedSlippedDisc Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Hi Andy, I'm only 15min away and have had a hankering for one of these for a while now. Could you pm me a phone number so I can contact you? Cheers, Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillock Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 7 hours? This place etc etc.It says a lot about how fast these are that every time this car gets moved on, it's done a few hundred more miles and seemingly had a set of tyres eddyramrod and Skizzer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tetleysmooth Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 The most under-photographed car on Autoshite, methinks.I wanted it in Febuary when scooters first put it up.Never did receive any pics of it despite many requests.Here it is again picless.Agreed to buy this a good few times to, and was willing to travel to Scotland, Northumberland, wherever and drive it home, until scooters sold it to Billy who very promptly sold it on again.I do feel a tad hard done by actually, because I waited so long for this car.Going to pass on it now though, the 'moment' has gone.Get some bloody decent pics up though.p.s. Just had a butchers, and me and scooters exchanged 65 pm's about this car, and I still never ended up with it. alf892 and KruJoe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy18s Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 Really? Not buying it because a previous owner wouldnt/didn't sell it to you?Not heard that one i must admit........No money or too far away I've heard before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardMoss Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Really? Not buying it because a previous owner wouldnt/didn't sell it to you?Not heard that one i must admit........I've been there with that - I've had sellers mess me around until I've reached the "screw it, there are other cars out there with more helpful sellers" stage. Even if the car is then made available, you've transferred some of your frustration/anger to the car and then prefer to walk away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not buying it because a previous owner wouldnt/didn't sell it to you?Not heard that one i must admit........No money or too far away I've heard beforeDon't take it personally chap, it all happened before you bought the car.Every so often, I'd get a pm asking if I still wanted it and the answer was always yes, so can you understand me being a bit perplexed when it was sold to someone else?I've got a 2.5 V70 now which is no beauty queen, but I'm gradually getting there with it.Spent too much on it now to buy another. andy18s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimitedSlippedDisc Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Hi folks, just a quick update. I can't seem to get insurance (reasonably) on account of still being fairly young so I'm out of the running. I did speak to Andy earlier and he seemed a top bloke on the phone and the car sounds like a very bargainous and rapid way of making your dog sick! Good luck with the sale mate.

scooters Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 It will need a rear tyre. I apologise about the lack of photos 6 months ago this was because the car was 200 miles away from me and at the time I was incapacitated with Labryinthitis. I wasnt trying to mess anyone around on purpose and at the time the car- without t & t was only 350. Unless they have been replaced it will need a couple of tyres soon. Whoever buys it PM me as v5 has arrived at my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddyramrod Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 If I was suddenly in need of a cheap emergency car (these things do happen) I'd be all over this one. Memphis likes Volvos too!However, at the moment I have no such need, so I have to declare myself oot. Bren and Cavcraft 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like I have a replacement for this to be picked up at the weekend so it's time to push it a bit more350 is all it costs to own this vehicle still has all the features that made it so attractive last time around apart from a hesitation in acceleration sometimes at full boostHeated seats worked well this am whilst travelling into work Anybody? eddyramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
