Not for me though :-(

 

In the boozer last night a chap I work with says that his car is fubared and he can't afford to get it fixed, so he needs something to get him to work. He asks me today if I could find him something cheap, reliable, not too bad on fuel and by TONIGHT!

 

Challenge accepted, shite found, negotiations completed and collection scheduled for 7 p.m this evening.

 

If the car is as good as the ad on the bay suggests, I will be utterly jealous.

 

It will be a short trip, only 24 miles away but I'll make sure there's plenty of pics.

Nah, I'm the landy nut, I'd never find one for someone else I want them all.

The collection was as uneventful as expected,

 

Ex Wuzzum Grand Cherokee loaded up with one expectant new owner and 2 girlies that insisted they were coming as it was within a few miles of a kfc.

drove through 20 odd miles of Norfolk countryside with no interesting chod to be seen and then we reach the village in question, I think they like eggs round here...

and there she is, in all her Perkins Diesel glory,

 

A clean, tidy 420 turbo D with 120k on the clock and 9 months mot for 300 of your finest English.

Pretty straight down the sides apart from a few little scabs on the rear arches

and all is well here.

I thought there had been a mistake when I pulled up to the house as a similar colour Rover 45 was sat on the drive, then I noticed the 420 hiding round the corner and when the sellers mother turned up in another red 420 I new we'd struck autoshiters. Apparently the whole family drive rovers :eek:
