gm Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Sounds better than it is in reality. Do you work for Upi or something?not at all, it just sounded like something that might be of interest here. I'm not going myself as I'm currently injured and can barely make a cuppa never mind strip a motor
CortinaDave Posted November 22, 2014 Author Posted November 22, 2014 The pikeys go in the yard the day before, take off the high value parts for themselves and lock them in the boot of one of the scrappers, then go back and claim them on wheelbarrow day. Hence its a shit deal for everyone else
Taff Posted November 23, 2014 Posted November 23, 2014 The pikeys go in the yard the day before, take off the high value parts for themselves and lock them in the boot of one of the scrappers, then go back and claim them on wheelbarrow day. Hence its a shit deal for everyone else to be fair, I did exactly the same when they closed the garrison library in Hong Kong
Sudsprint Posted November 23, 2014 Posted November 23, 2014 That Royale is heartbreaking. Timewarp colour too.
brownnova Posted November 23, 2014 Posted November 23, 2014 I do have to confess a soft spot towards Ford Probes at the moment... Does anyone know where I can get help for this...!
ruffgeezer Posted November 23, 2014 Posted November 23, 2014 I do have to confess a soft spot towards Ford Probes at the moment... Does anyone know where I can get help for this...! Yes, buy one and it'll cure you in minutes. brownnova 1
oldcars Posted November 28, 2014 Posted November 28, 2014 They now have a V6 Calibra too. https://www.facebook.com/UPullItUK/photos/a.575163919217513.1073741827.574695932597645/786765934723976/?type=1&theater
Bren Posted November 28, 2014 Posted November 28, 2014 I do have to confess a soft spot towards Ford Probes at the moment... Does anyone know where I can get help for this...!Some parts are getting impossible to source - switchgear, trim etc. Even when they were in production a lot of stuff had to be ordered from the states.
CortinaDave Posted November 28, 2014 Author Posted November 28, 2014 Calibra looks decent actually. Someone posted on their FB that they were £200 short and they replied "always willing to listen to offers" I suspect 350-400 would buy it oldcars 1
SambaS Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 Stole the Royale pics for my new Facebook group for Royale / Monza / Senator owners feel free to join https://www.facebook.com/groups/378707828981300/
CortinaDave Posted March 23, 2015 Author Posted March 23, 2015 out of boredom I ran the reg numbers of some of the "for sale" cars through the dvla site to see if any of them did make it back out the door Both the XM and the Probe are "no longer on the database" so clearly didn't find buyers and went in the mincer. The Volvo however is taxed and sporting a fresh MOT til 2016, probably the most worthy survivor of the lot. Interestingly KNS 660V the Royale is still showing on the DVLA as on a SORN.. surely it didnt get back out??? oldcars 1
