Roffle Mk1 Ford Galaxy 2.0 Aspen - £500 cash/ROFFLE £9.50/or deal.

[purplebargeken]

Oh, the Samsung that I dropped perfectly level onto some concrete and smashed the screen to atoms Smartphone. 

[purplebargeken]

This will be on the road until the end of the month then it'll go back into storage until the i10 gets sold on at the end of April. 

 

Nice old bus but parking is a bit of a ball ache round here. Might consider passing it on in the autumn. Possibly.

[purplebargeken]

Mrs PBK rang me at work to enquire as to why both front windows of the galaxy were fully down, the car was unlocked and why the keys were on the floor of the porch.

 

I had no answer other than I was rushed to get to work after vaxing the front carpet and both seats.

 

No-one nicked anything and the car was still there, so what was the problem eh? Eh?

[purplebargeken]

Seats and carpet should be nice and dry though!

[stripped fred]

I left my passenger door open in a multi storey car park in Sheffield overnight. No one robbed me although I deserved it.

[SiC]

Might consider passing it on in the autumn. Possibly.

I think you need to see a doctor if your passing it. Especially if you're expecting to wait till the autumn before you can manage it.

 

*BA-DA-BUM-TUSH*

[purplebargeken]

Bum Tush................ I see what you did there, hahahahaha.

[purplebargeken]

The seats and carpet have come up lovely, nice and clean and so fresh smelling. Bone dry too!!!!

[Brodders]

Hmm, who knew Edmonton was so safe?

 

There must be method in the madness though, today's weather has been the nicest day this month, so you couldn't have picked a better time.

[keith777]

Have you considered a roffle for this cos I've had a drink and looking for a roffle charity to donate to !

[purplebargeken]

I may well indeed, cos we all love a roffle........ but not yet though, I'd like to spend a bit of time with it first

[keith777]

Cobblers ! You've had it long enough

[purplebargeken]

Noooooo. Okay, how about a Christmas Eve roffle then?

Engine

 

[purplebargeken]

I have the window draught excluder things that will need to be fitted, not sure how though.

 

There is a brand new tow bar assembly for the car that can be obtained for a not unreasonable £70

 

I have a new gear lever gaiter that will come with the car.

 

Front heater control is not operational, everything lights up but no action from the heater system when turned on. The 'hedgehog' is available on eBay and accessed via the glove box. Front cig lighter is not functional, could well be a fuse or the unit itself. haven't looked. 

 

Small ding on the lower bit of the drivers door. Small amount of rusty bleb on the rear N/S were the wheel arch joins the sill, nothing major and is easily fixable. Front grille needs to be refitted properly as I had to dislodge it when opening the bonnet. The catch is lovely and smooth in operation, no issues now whatsoever. The car is a first time starter. Ride is comfy squishy if that makes sense. Mileage is 150 odd thou.

 

Location when for sale or roffle will be the barn near Chelmsford.

[Fabergé Greggs]

I really want this. Would you mind insuring it for me whilst paying my ULEZ charges?

 

Much appreciated old bean

[Mr_Bo11ox]

Looks super tidy

[purplebargeken]

No problem Jack, do the same for me re: LML and the Shckoda? lol

 

 

Cheers Mr B, it really is rather tidy

[Noel Tidybeard]

I have the window draught excluder things that will need to be fitted, not sure how though.

 

 

it isn't very hard to do

 

 

[purplebargeken]

Thanks for that NTB, simple indeed but I'd never had these before so that makes it pretty clear, especially about the clips. I'll pop these on later today then.

[purplebargeken]

Rear ones went on fine and look good. Fronts are a little too long on the leading edge bit and will need to be trimmed slightly. 

 

I shan't be doing that, the new owner can.

[purplebargeken]

Just pondering the value of this big red bus. 

 

All that is left to do is fit the new gear lever gaiter and the not cracked rear panel thingy. 

 

Any idea folks?

[BorniteIdentity]

I honestly think anything with a full ticket is north of £500 atm - especially considering scrap prices.

 

Why not try a £10 raffle?

 

Maybe it’s worth more. Sadly, these are still in ‘Dingle Bus’ territory so not worth serious money atm. But anyone with more children than eyes surely would fancy a pop for £10.

[keith777]

Roffle do it do it do it

I'll start the ball rolling with 4 randoms -hic !

[purplebargeken]

Hmm, okay. £9.50 per ticket sounds a bit more realistic.

 

Okay, worth a go I guess. I'll sort it at the end of the month, payday and all that as it might be less 'urrgghhh' for most folk at that point.

 

Thanks.

[purplebargeken]

Just to add that she'll be going to the barn near Chelmsford on Friday, so collekshun would be from there. 

 

She will be sans road fund licence and insurance at that point

[BorniteIdentity]

Thanks.

 

I admire you, really I do.  But it's a 50p saving which is gonna cost you £30.  Props to you tho - you're a better man than I!!

[purplebargeken]

It's more of a psychological thing to help encourage other shitters that it is indeed a bit of a billy bargain at £9.50 rather than £10. Might make all of the difference between a roffle frenzy and a roffle wasteland of nothingness.

[purplebargeken]

HOT ROFFLE ACTION? Step this way to the roffle emporium................................
