I suppose I should have a ticket , what with it being the closest Roffle yet to me.

42 please.

Oh bollocks, I don't want a car I don't want with a short MOT and chicken not steak and kidney canned pie but I'm a weak willed cretin so one random please.

I've been on many sauces tonight Rob, which is why I'm here spunking money on a ticket for this to alleviate the disappointment of not winning a shonky little black hatchback to go with my little black shonky hatchback.

Don't have space for another car and you are miles away so One random number please.

None of the other roffles I have entered are going anywhere yet, and the pipping on those cream seats is rather alluring, so pop me down for number 52 please.

Cheers

 

40% gone

 

Ohhhhh I'm getting the pang of regret now as the seats cost me hundreds as I had to buy a whole car to get them

Day Four

 

Into the box in the boot goes a properly mixed rattle can with decent nozzle.  One of the Halford's finest mixes, to give me NIGHTFIRE RED

Don't knock it, it saves the winner having to go out and get a can.

 

Ideal for Harvey Weinsteining* the odd scuff

I was hoping to get past 50% sales and get ready for fixing the lotto date

 

Any other interest? My driveway is heaving with rammel, the bailiffs can't get through, it's on the cards something else is coming this weekend. 

 

8 cars out there is going to nark the neighbours again, but in reality, stuff 'em

 

 

 

 

Into the box goes a set of sparking plugs, new in boxes, live and direct from GSF

Could I have no.10 please , if not any one random , wish I'd kept my 420gsi , apart from the crap calipers and the drooping headlining and peeling doorcards she was sweet

Posted

Do I need this ? No

Do I like the colour ? Hell yes

Did I not promise myself I'd never go south of Bedford again when I left St Albans, my birthplace, for good ? Yup

Again, clayts, have you got room for a 2nd car ? Nope

 

One random please.

 

(Let me know when you need paying !)

 

(PS If no-one wants the roof rails they'd look pretty sweet on my Streetshite)

(PPS Assuming the key turns up)

Need to get this sold off sharpish! 

 

I've got 7 cars out there now and another one coming (!) and she's having kittens, as I'm supposed to be fitting-out a new kitchen, not playing with chod

 

Into the box goes

 

I found out an original period ROVER Wallet for one of these and into it have put the correct owners manual (wow) and a HiFi Car Audio manual for the range (courtesy of our Trigger (double-wow, actually touched by Lord Trigger, it's almost like a signature)

Also

 

From the rented garage of spares gone by, I found a set of original ROVER alloy wheel depth wheel nuts, good spares in case one of the locking bolts currently on the car needs a socket hammering over it.  Not that it should do as it comes with two nut keys, but you never know they could go missing if Starlings are nesting in the area and have a crow-bar to get in.

 

 

Also

 

ROVER boot lid badge, in case oiks pinch it because the brand is having a comeback*

Have a free bump to reflect more free goodies in the boot.

 

Must surely be more people wanting a ticket

Posted

Cheers

 

30 tickets left

 

 

Into the box today goes a NEW IN BOX NEVER OPENED Vodaphone Mobile WifI hotspotter.  Essentially, it gives you Internets for your household devices using your spare phone sim as the Internetter. It can be unlocked from Vodaphone as there are savvy how-to pages out there as it's based on ZTE firmware.  Or just get a cheap sim plan for a fiver.

 

GR9 for a remote workshop network and streaming internet sounds to your Bluetooth speaker/light units

Any ideas:

 

Rhythmic Scrape noises from front nearaide when coasting. Goes away when you give it any power. Clutch in or out makes no difference. Better when going round left hand bends I.e. less weight on that side. Braking makes no difference.

 

Recent wheel bearing in that hub, so initial thought is I haven't torqued the hub nut tightly enough and the driveshaft is loose?

 

This is the focus so I should probably scrap it

Don't scrap it yet

 

Buy a ticket for this raffle, so there is a chance you could have a spare car to use while you repair the Focus.

Not that you should need it, but you never know you might arrive in a Renault and convoy home together.
