oof

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

That is absolute shit. But if you need a lift somewhere I’m about 10 miles away

There is a very high chance of us taking you up on this offer!

 

Currently eating lunch in a Morrisons and contemplating options.

[garethj]

No problem

[beko1987]

Well that'll fucking learn you.

 

All the while myself and others fanny about with shit modern cars, barely scraping through being allowed on here we can take solace in the fact that Junkman and the GGG balance the balance out with good old cars, normally with a V8 in. Life is good.

 

BUT then I started reading this thread, and talk of something modern, economical and NOT an old V8 were mentioned, then I spy a bloody APPLE for breakfast!

 

This whole experience has taught you to not fuck about with the balance of life, this is the EnvironmentTM telling you it's nice and sunny today, make sure it stays.

 

I'm not a billion miles away but have 2 kids so can't come and laugh at you but I hope you learn from this and purchase a proper car so the balance of power is restored and I can go back to my economical boring shitty renault and drive it with pride, safe in the knowledge that for my 51mpg you are doing 7.

 

 

(seriously though, that jag looked fun, sorry to hear it's all gone south. I hope your Plan B is fun and doesnt involve the train straight back home

[Guest Hooli]

On the bright side, it's a lovely day for a walk.

[Six-cylinder]

Home territory for me, need a lift, car or bed for the night just pm. 

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

Things are looking up...

 

Also, I've had to pee seven times on this trip. Fun fact

[Six-cylinder]

Do you have a plan? 

 

I am free to get involved if you need me.

[Captain Furious]

Damn, that would have been a megabarg for £1250, many roffle tickets would have been bought.  Did he sell it from under you or were you turning up unannounced?

I was in the Leighton Buzzard Morrison's when I got a text message from Supernaut asking for my postcode because his traveling companion wanted my Lexus.

 

Great things happen there.

Oh shit.

Its all gone horribly wrong. The car was sold an hour before we arrived.

Now we're in the middle of nowhere. Half an hours walk to the next village down these roads.

Fuck knows what we're going to do in this village. It's called Hayton Regis.

Fuck!

looks like thorn turn,not the safest place to be walking,I'm local and can assist but it looks like you have plenty offers of help.

[beko1987]

I think all you local chaps should just abduct them, steal their wallets and buy them a proper car to go home in

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

First of all, MASSIVE thanks to everyone who offered assistance. This forum, etc.

 

Particular thanks to garethj, our knight in shiting armour, for coming to find two lost Northerners in a supermarket car park and then driving all the way to Bedford to pick up a car we found on eBay.

 

We are currently following him to a petrol station. Here's Gareth:

[Skizzer]

Excellent news.

 

This has all the makings of an Anneka Rice game show: get given a fistful of train tickets to random remote points in the countryside, then see how many strangers you can rope in to help you buy a car online to get home in. Extra points for more cylinders, an autobox and an ashtray.

 

Helll, I’d watch every week.

We have driven 15 miles south by mistake.
