For Sale The PBK Beetle - get it bought!

[purplebargeken]

I like the Alfa, bit like a pair of comfy, worn and ever so slightly whiffy slippers.

 

So........ expressions of interest in the Alfa and some for the Amazon too.

 

Golf?

 

Beetle?

[Uncle Jimmy]

All look like good uns; sadly there are no estates with large pez engines and skirting boards, ahm oot, GLWTS lord purple.

[The Reverend Bluejeans]

Where art thou in the UK?

[carlo]

Cheers everybody. The arthritis is what it is, kind of used to it. The Obstructive Sleep Apnea and the CPAP machine are possibly car hindering but will discuss on 15th March. Hopefully I might actually feel a shed load better with CPAP.  

 

The bowel symptoms are the main concern and remain an unknown quantity. Could be anything and nothing (hiatus hernia, IBS, etc but it is a worry. No appetite, constantly feel full, if I do eat anything I feel full after a really small amount, and it is painful etc, etc. Irritating.

 

GP, hospital and so on have been ace. GP consult on the Friday, appt slapped on the mat on the Saturday and appt on the Tuesday. Less than 2 weeks wait for the scopes. 

 

Discussed with Mrs PBK about the cars last night and decision made.

 

Sounds identical to the symptoms I had with a stomach ulcer a good few years back, especially the horrible 'full' feeling after virtually eating fuck all.  Took a good few months to clear up, and very unpleasant, but at least it wasn't particularly serious.  They reckoned mine was due to bacteria in the gut, and something called De-Nol anti-bismuth solution finally cleared it up (quite quickly.)  

 

P.S. If you're having an endoscopy for god's sake get sedated first, it was one of the worst experiences if my life.

[purplebargeken]

I be in Norf Lundon N9, 10 mins from J25/M25. It's grim.

 

Yes. Sedation is high on my list for Sunday!!!!!!!!!

[The Reverend Bluejeans]

Alas, 2far4meM8.

[DodgeRover]

Wife had endoscopy too, get put out completely if you can, under no circumstances let them tell you that you don't need it.

Unless you swallow swords as a pass time.

[purplebargeken]

Whimper.

[purplebargeken]

Right, c'mon you lot lets be having yer. Got the Beetle, Golf and Alfa. Willing to accept offers. 

[The Reverend Bluejeans]

I'm having one on Tues. Will be sedated.

[purplebargeken]

All three, hence sedation.

[purplebargeken]

Ok, going to keep hold of the Golf as it is a sweet little car.

 

The Alfa can go for £250

 

The Beetle for £300

 

The only catch is that they must go ASAP please.

[chatsharris]

Any MOT on the Alfa?

[purplebargeken]

Hi, sorry for the delay, laptop FTP.

 

MOT, yes. A lot. Possibly 11 months or so.

 

It's still a tatty car but for £250??

 

Interest in buyage or shall I roffle it at a fiver a go?

[eddyramrod]

Roffle the Alfa!  I'm in!

 

Wrong engine, wrong gearbox, but at least I'll be able to say I had an Alfa once...

[purplebargeken]

Okaaaaay, just want people to be realistic as to what it is. It isn't perfect, it's tatty body wise but the engine is ace.

[Dave_Q]

Feck me, £250 for the Alfa is really showing what an idiot I am for spending hours welding up my £200, 210k mile one.

[eddyramrod]

Ken, I wasn't joking.  You made it clear in the original post that the Alfa needs a bit of love; that's fine, I expect that!  This is AS remember, we understand that cars wear out/get damaged.  I think every car I've ever owned had a bit of a "history" before it came to me.  Many didn't have a history after me, as I was the last owner, which makes me sad.  That said: this is AS, it shouldn't be difficult to punt a car round again if I don't like/need/want it.

Go on, Roffle. You know you want to.

 

4, 16 and 59 please.

[purplebargeken]

Ok, I have started the roffle thingy for Pasta. Good luck

 

Your numbers will be on there shortly mate.

 

Thanks.

[DVee8]

Wife had endoscopy too, get put out completely if you can, under no circumstances let them tell you that you don't need it.

Unless you swallow swords as a pass time.

[Fabergé Greggs]

I wanted the amazon so bad. I'm still think about it every day!

[purplebargeken]

The Amazon has gone to Sam Glover.
