mitsisigma01 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Yes the foam is starting to rot so i've tried using the spray glue on it but it became unstuck again in the heat (what heat?) so rather than pissing about again it was easier just to buy some £4 pins of ebay!To deflect from the earlier tension ...What sort of pins are they please . My Mitsubishi Sigma Estate might be turning into a bedouin tent style interior soon ,Cheers
trigger Posted May 31, 2016 Author Posted May 31, 2016 Hi, it was these that i bought. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191826469036
trigger Posted May 31, 2016 Author Posted May 31, 2016 Glad this has ended well for you. Is he on here? I reckon that he will be welcomed with open arms if he starts with a 14 hour, live collection thread.Sadly not, although I'm kinda glad he isn't either as I'll be worrying about it going wrong the whole time! Not that i think it will.
cort16 Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Fucking hell that's a long way to go. Get him to drop you off on the way back up the road so you can pick up that 2200TC trigger 1
CortinaDave Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Orkney is a long run even from me in fife! Depends if he's taking the ferry from Aberdeen ( 8 hours) or scrabster( an hour). will cost him a fair few quid even in ferrying it back so he must be well keen.
trigger Posted May 31, 2016 Author Posted May 31, 2016 He said to me that he has to get a boat to the mainland, then a bus from Thurso to Inverness, a plane from there to Gatwick which is £25 and then the train from there to Ipswich which is £18. He's already booked it all! Lacquer Peel 1
trigger Posted June 12, 2016 Author Posted June 12, 2016 Well this has now gone to start it's new life in the Orkneys, i collected the lad from the station a couple of hours ago, he said it was the first time he been on a train let alone this far south but he was more than happy with the car and is now on his 720 mile drive back to Kirkwell!.

trigger Posted June 12, 2016 Author Posted June 12, 2016 Same here! I've asked him to keep me in touch with how he gets on! He's also given me Scottish money, I've never seen it before! Worryingly he's relying on petrol stations to take it the money on the way back... Coprolalia, loserone, forddeliveryboy and 3 others 6
Jim Bell Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 Brave man taking scottish 50s like. Didnt they find a counterfeit ring on Orkney not so long ago? loserone and Essex V6 2
trigger Posted June 12, 2016 Author Posted June 12, 2016 Don't say that man! Is it normal for the man in the watermark to be flicking the birdie? Skizzer, chaseracer, Jim Bell and 2 others 5
cort16 Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 As long as he didn't give you a load of 15 pounds notes it'll be fine purplebargeken, Dave_Q and trigger 3
chaseracer Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 Don't say that man! Is it normal for the man in the watermark to be flicking the birdie? Only since the independence referendum purplebargeken, Skizzer, Rusty_Rocket and 1 other 4
Pillock Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 Banks will take them, if you're buying a curly wurly from the local Spar you've got no chance. I used to like Scottish £1 notes, they looked like English fivers so you often got four quid change. trigger 1
Felly Magic Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 A sigh of relief for you eh Triggs? Now get Dollywobbler's caravan bought LOL
trigger Posted June 12, 2016 Author Posted June 12, 2016 Despite all the cross words and such, I'm really glad that you got a good sale on this motor!.Thank you. I'm pleased to have the garden space back too! Pillock and purplebargeken 2
Felly Magic Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 Glad you got a good result there Mike, perseverance sometimes pays off. Now stay away from ebay/carandclassic/mongtree purplebargeken and trigger 2
trigger Posted June 12, 2016 Author Posted June 12, 2016 I'm lucky enough to have a lot of money at the moment burning a hole, I'm finding it hard not to buy anything at the moment!
garbaldy Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 I can help you with that problem, do you wanna sierra, I should really be slimming down in case I have to relocate but found myself wanting to win the 106 roffle, I went out and bought a 206 today for a laugh.
Pillock Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 Shove it in a trust fund for the little un? I hear classic cars make an excellent investment. Not autoshite cars, but proper classics. Like, you know, a classic drop-top British sportscar. In gleaming red. How could that not be worth a fortune in years to come? (pssst, Billy. If you manage to sell that heap of shit from this, 10% is mine.) purplebargeken, trigger, Ghosty and 1 other 4
trigger Posted June 12, 2016 Author Posted June 12, 2016 Shove it in a trust fund for the little un?Don't be daft, she's got her own money!
purplebargeken Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 You know you really, really, really want a low price blue Citroen AX (I just know you do). Don't deny yourself, it only causes emotional pain.
purplebargeken Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 If you don't buy it I shall bring the Toledo over for a good mopping session! (That should scare him into a sale, what a cunning plan)
purplebargeken Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 The car buying world is your pearl producing mollusk. We envy you. trigger 1
trigger Posted June 12, 2016 Author Posted June 12, 2016 Which why I've just enquired about a Marina 1.8 Coupe that a widow is trying to dispose off... Anyway I've just spoke to the Audi buyer, it's made it to Sterling without any drama so far! Essex V6, Dick Cheeseburger, Skizzer and 2 others 5
