Guest Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 National Express do an overnight bus to Stranraer for £34, Stena do a connecting ferry for £25, get the vendor to meet you at the terminal at 8 in the morning and get the cheap ferry back to Liverpool, job done.That sounds more like it, I always wondered if there was a trick to doing it and it seems like that's the one. Great job! Expect the Hirst Cabs yard to fill up with knackered Charmants in future.Not getting that Stellar though, I'm skint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Lobster Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 That R8 is only about five miles away from me. Judging by the user name the seller used to (maybe still does?) do a lot of stuff with 5 Turbos 2's and knows his stuff so I'd guess that 8 would be a pretty good 'un.I'd love an 8. REALLY. MUST.

Guest Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 1989 Pontiac Grand Prix SE I would have this, look at all the switches inside! 1973 Rover 3500S These P6s seem really cheap nowadays.

pogweasel Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I guess folk get 'spooked' off P6's because every article about buying them is all OMG BASE UNITZ!!!1!"If it looks like a minter, it's probably nice panels bolted to a rotter skeleton..." and so on and so forth.

andrew e Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 1979 Mercedes-Benz 250 Great for escaping from triffids.YO HIRST! I had one of these badboys in blue; £250 - bought it from a geezer physically in the council tip at Elstree An old skool back of the autotrader buy (can you still do that?) Drove it back to our yard in childerditch about 30 miles completely unliscened with no exhaust... no SPECS in 2001 I sold it to bangerboyz for a Viking burieal a few years later because it was absolutely rotten down one side (crash repair possibly) we used to race it round the trading estate or go to the cafe in it...
