If anyone buys this and lives between Southend and St Neots then Angrydicky delivery service IS available.

As indicated above, young Douglas is taking this on.

 

Everyone should immediately do a 500 mile epic in a newly purchased car to bond with it.  It should be law.  I'll be providing free 'ready mixed' coolant in abundance.

Doug has some previous form with long-distance shonky six-pot Mercs...  ;)

top grabbing there.  Proper car.

 

Just read the update :(

Sorry to hear you're having a bad time of it.

 

Someone will get a pearler.  I've got a far less nice one that I'd not want to part with if it were nearly as road worthy as that looks.

I picked up a bike from madmopedracer who is based near(ish) to Glasgow, and rode it home to Essex. Had a great day out-decent cheap flight, a ride in a veg fueled Mercedes, and a enjoyable ride home to Essex, sunshine all the way.

 

Long distance collectioneering is to be enjoyed and encouraged!

Flight down booked for Saturday. Bus/train times all checked. Nothing can go wrong.................... :-)

Hi Dave, TVO still going. Its got a bit rattlely, possibly the water pump.So spent the weekend polishing it. Buying the other one was very much an impulse buy and I have no real plan. Thinking of running new one over winter and come spring time getting one of them sorted up. Then again plans might change!

Just setting off to pick merc up. Sorry no live updates as my phone is as old as the car. 700mile round trip, should be fun.

Just back home, the old merc never missed a beat. Delighted with it. Thanks Daniel. Sorry I didnt hang about, I was in a bit of a hurry.

Lovely to meet you. Glad it didn't use any coolant. I imagine that when it's full it's coming out of the top of the err expansion tank? Anyway if it can do 300 miles in one hit then I may have unnecessarily worried!

 

Keep us updated!

Daniel.
