BeEP Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 You're slacking. It took a whole four minutes for that to sell! oldcars, Lacquer Peel and HMC 3
83C Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 Damn, if it falls through let me know. With the ground clearance it would have been an ideal WBOD.
BorniteIdentity Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 Ohh go on then, I’ll take the Xant!Any chance you can drive both back? If so I’ll have the renner. No? Oh.

Marm Toastsmith Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 Ohh go on then, I’ll take the Xant! Well done. Can I have it when you get bored? D Spares & Tyres 1
purplebargeken Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 That ain't no Volvo lol. Well bought/swapped/whatever the fuck happened.
D Spares & Tyres Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 Bugger. I would have had the Xantia. Mine has just failed the mot badly and although Mrs despairs never usually says no to what I drive, she has said that his and hers matching red Citroens is a bit too sad, even for us so I won't bother doing the retest work. Too late!
purplebargeken Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 ^^ Never mind, you could have a lovely blue BMW Touring instead
They_all_do_that_sir Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 If the Merc was sorted and sold I'd have that Renault off you in a heartbeat Sent from my TA-1012 using Tapatalk
CortinaDave Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 I also fancied the Xantia although 500 miles away would've been too far for me anyway! 4 minutes to sell a car. This place etc....
HMC Posted November 18, 2018 Author Posted November 18, 2018 Renault 19 also now sold! Both have gone to long term shiters. They_all_do_that_sir, BeEP, Marm Toastsmith and 9 others 12
djoptix Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 I have some 4x100 alloys that would suit that 19 nicely - available free to the buyer if they want them. In Bristol. purplebargeken and holbeck 2
Fabergé Greggs Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 Sorry to HMC, but hopefully good news to someone else.. I have to pull out of buying the Xantia. My classic insurance says NO. Normal insurance is crazy for me (circa £1200!!!) because no "no claims" and Beruit. I thought I was safe saying yes because they'd previously quoted me, however "that was at a different address".. Bastards. I hate giving people the mess around. Soz. D Spares & Tyres 1
D Spares & Tyres Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 I think I'm second or third in line but dibs on the Xantia please!
HMC Posted November 19, 2018 Author Posted November 19, 2018 Xantia re- sold to the second interested shiter. Floatylight, D Spares & Tyres, oldcars and 3 others 6
HMC Posted November 19, 2018 Author Posted November 19, 2018 Took my sole transportation off to get a pizza. It’s low but avoids the scene lowness where even raised manhole covers are a sump ending experience. The nec trip has prompted further sound deadening and- given that the standard air filter box is supposed to be a good one anyway- and it’s a lot quieter- I’ve got a second hand one coming off e bay to replace the aftermarket one. Loud induction noise on a 4 cyl diesel is just LOUD and DRONING; Something the Lseries diesel excells at anyway. With a 1200mile + germany trip next month i thought I owed it to my ears. yes oui si, RobT, Dirk Diggler and 10 others 13
HMC Posted November 28, 2018 Author Posted November 28, 2018 The Rover 45 (and the rest of mg rover) nearly ended up being a Chinese takeaway. Things could have been different. As it is, this Rover 45 is collecting a Chinese takeaway. The replacement standard air box makes the car sooo much quieter wuvvum, somewhatfoolish, RobT and 3 others 6
wuvvum Posted November 28, 2018 Posted November 28, 2018 You can get a K&N panel filter for the original air box which would allow better airflow without any additional drone. They aren't particularly cheap though mind, and would probably only net you a couple of extra horsepower anyway.
clayts450 Posted November 28, 2018 Posted November 28, 2018 I had a K&N cone on the 45 V6. It made sod all difference.

HMC Posted December 22, 2018 Author Posted December 22, 2018 Off to Germany for Christmas today with the kids and my divorce-in-progress wife to spend it with my in-laws. It’s been planned for ages and wasn’t possible to unplan. Taking my current sole transport - an L322 Range Rover TD6. Yes I have European break down cover.
