Only a smoll update today.  Over the weekend we had another sprog.

Hence, the SAAB has been doing family duties.   Here it is, five up, going to the local post office to return some ill fitting clothes.

Congratulations!!

Went for a bedtime drive

 

[loserone]

Five up shopping trip.

[loserone]

Went for another drive this morning

Stopped for some juice

Bought a thing

It's a bit grim, but should recover.  Now, what to sell?

[SmokinWaffle]

Dibs on the new one in exchange for dibs on my 405 estate?

[Jimbob McGregor]

Two 405s of this forum stashed currently with @loserone

[loserone]

And my 405 is still at ScaryOldCortina's.

Straight swap, I'll pay transport 🤣

[loserone]

I are giffer

[jon.k]

I like that trailer!

[Stanky]

Bars below the lights perfect for urban surfing 11/10

[DVee8]

Bloody hell that trailers still going.

[Lord Sterling]

Loving the Pug content. Got my own Pug fairly sorted and I am becoming quite enamoured with it.

Like the seat change, its something I'm considering. I've always liked the fluted leather of big Peugeots. It reminds me of the seats in my KV6 Sterling. Its definately on the list but maybe at a later date.

I'd have to find somewhere urban for that.

I am amazed at how long you've stuck out that 407.   I couldn't love one, even if you're managing to make yours look unreasonably handsome.

Needs a bit of fettling for regular use but will be fine for what I need.

Yeah, so, about that.

 

Turns out it's a bit* more than an injector seal wrong with this.  Also, the sump is full of plastic.

 

And when the leaky injector was removed, there was plastic there too.  Also a number of stripped injector studs.  With these duly resolved and a ten hour drive planned to pick up a 400KG stove, it was still running rough.

 

And the turbo started leaking.

 

And an oil leak.

 

And the tyres are the wrong size, it's scruffy as hell, smells, the ABS is broken, etc. etc. etc.

 

It's being broken now, the axle will save @Jimbob McGregor's nearly identical one.  Need anything, @thebrotherschuckle?

Possibly, Power steering issues and clunking over every road imperfection, however no idea what the issues are so will investigate. All expected at this price, sorry to hear about the pug, has a lot more character than mine!

[loserone]

Think it's being weighed in this afternoon, best holler if there's something worth removing and posting.

[loserone]

Been to get fuel.  Hour round trip.

 

It's a rapid little thing on these roads.

[loserone]

Oops. This hasn't got a frigging lion on either

RWD, stripped-out track weapon with an unsilenced exhaust and grippy tyres. Also with badge delete option for added stealth tho' m8

[loserone]

@Jimbob McGregor and I needed a track toy.

Oh yeah Tractor shite FTW

back to back @dollywobbler review with @Mrs6C's 35 when?  

[loserone]

When you drive it at 12MPH on TVO the 249 miles to the FoD? Even going to work would take me three hours!

It's not impossible.  I've managed to get a dab of oppo out of 6C's Fergie at the FoD...

[Matty]

Came in hoping for a 505 but strangely not disappointed.  What is it though?

[loserone]

It's a 1952 Ferguson TED20.  The TVO one.

 

It's partially the wrong colour, hasn't run in a long time, and has been sat under a CPT.

[loserone]

In our defence, it was cheaper than a 505

Love an old Fergie. Friend's family had an old TE20 sat in their barn in the 1980s and I always hoped it would be recommissioned. Last thing I'd heard was a local retired plod had purchased it, had the old girl up and running and repainted in battleship grey.

Is yours running yet?!
