Mercedade's MG ZT 190+

[mercedade]

I expressed interest in an eBay ZT a week or so ago, got outbid but the seller didn't hit his reserve. I forgot about it, until last night when I got an email from the seller saying he was worried he might be 'negotiating with a tyre kicker' and would I still be interested in the car at a newly acceptable price?

This morning, I said yes.

So now I'm off to get it!

Hero, good luck.

In case I need to outrun a grunge fan in 1992

Northern Electric maximising profits once again.

A destination. I'm 99% certain I'm not buying a Corsa, so will I burst into flames on the border?

 

[mercedade]

Very brief stop.

An entire evening of having a racist gobshite whinge in your ear. If I wanted that, I'd just go and hang out on the open forum.

 

[mercedade]

Praise be! Ye Gods above, I give thanks you hear my prayer.

 

I have been provided with paper-based bigotry and objectification instead.

 

 

Thank you, thoughtful commuter of the past

Manchester pickled lily?

[mercedade]

Totes defo, yah?

 

But one of the baaaaad platforms that I don't usually have to engage with on my morning commute.

 

Although the thru-platforms do have their advantages

 

 

Massive freight trains I mean, not women in pantaloons.

How far from this station are you going?

[mercedade]

Most or the way to Wrexham apparently? Not entirely sure. The seller is meeting me and driving me to his house.

 

Now I've typed this out, I feel like I should know more about him than his ebay user name.

 

Hmm.

[Guest Hooli]

It was nice knowing you...

[mercedade]

He's called Steve. No murderers or psychopaths have ever been called Steve so I'm officially in the clear.

 

Just arrived at Chester.

You'll know when you're in Wrexham, the seagulls will be flying upside down.

[mercedade]

Touchdown.

 

Money exchanged.

 

The steed:

 

 

After all that, does it even qualify as shite?

[Guest Hooli]

Looks right nice that.

[mercedade]

Opened the sun roof didn't I?

 

WHY?

 

 

Gratuitous services shot

 

[mercedade]

Gonna head home now (with open sunroof because IDIOT) and put it to bed.

 

Tomorrow, gonna press it straight into service when I drive to Blackpool.

 

That should give me plenty of shakedown opportunity/hard shoulder rest.

[Timewaster]

I like.

 

I am thoroughly disgusted by the (P)Rat look Focus parked behind it.

I hope it was the sellers neighbour.

Naaah, that's Mayfield station, where they filmed the first episode of The Last Train, m9. 

[trigger]

Those early shape ZTs in that trophy blue really do look smart these days.
