Up until now I felt is was not "essential travel" to go and get it from storage.

I may have a change around of cars from storage now.

I like those Accords and think they're pretty smart looking things. Even if reliably boring motor vehicles.

Steady it is not what it seems, my CLK has gone off for some papering and they left this.

I have the key and permission to use it so next time I need to go out I will give it a try.

No I haven't! The ZX is looking after my scythe and pitchfork collection and the XM has a bigger loadbed for the stuff I need to carry back and forth to the FoD for the Springtime farming chores!

I prefer the original before that facelift. Less muscular, more shite.

[Six-cylinder]

As I said the CLK was taken away for pampering and I have now received some photos of progress so far.

They have now been enjoying it out in the sunshine!

[Six-cylinder]

For those who did not notice I bought HMC’s R8 Rover 216SLi Auto and the deal was I could wait until after lockdown to collect it. Thing is I would quite like it now!

I am in a vulnerable group so using public transport at the moment is not on, paying to have it transported is a poor use of money. Usually I would just ask for a volunteer to come to Devon with me but at the moment sharing cars with non household members is not advised and I am happy to take that advice. I may have been able to entice Mrs6C for a nice weekend in Devon, but a quick blat there and back in the day is not going to work.

I will ask can anybody get my Rover 216 SLi Auto from Tavistock closer to Buckingham?

I will pay the fuel and any reasonable expenses for collection/onward travel.

The car is MOTed and Taxed.

The car will show up as insured on the data base, but my insurance will not cover you so you will need your own 3^rd party.

I would also consider a plan if somebody needed a temporary car they take it, use it and bring it to me in due course.

But that would mean I have to buy another car from HMC!
