SAVED for a 2nd time Visa Cabriolet in Edinburgh! - New Clutch fitted

[DodgyBastard]

What a thoroughly decent chap you are.

 

That's very kind of you to say, it makes a change to being called a cunt, that "Scottish Prick" or  "A piece of work" like some other forum members have said...

Whilst you've got the MIG out:

 

 

The back half is over there m8

Well done on the test result! You have performed a very selfless thing.

 

Can't be many Visas in Scotland of any description other than a few surviving C15 vans?

[richardmorris]

Well done for the amazing work.

I only said you were all of those things if you didn't do it!

[dave j]

Great result! Hats off to you for fixing this one up.

[Jim Bell]

 

That was better then all of the Strictly Dancing put together.  Top televisual entertainments.

The original mot tester quoted them £2000 to repair it and told them they were better off just pushing it off of a cliff, clearly they just didn't want the work but it's still a bit of a shitty thing to tell them.

Roughly, if you were paid to do this how much would it have cost?

[spartacus]

Nice work FOAD, everybody's got something better to do, especially at this time of year, so full marks for giving your time up for something you may not see again.

I can't really answer that because I don't really work on anyone else's cars, when working on my own cars I never really factor in the time spent on them.

I think a lot of places charge £30 per hour so in that respect it would be roughly £600.

The owner of this doesn't have 25 year old, blond, blue eyed triplet girls by any chance?

Top job. Much enjoyed following this.

I think you've indirectly answered my question I was about to ask there.

 

Approx 10 hours a side?

Something like that, I think I spent about 10 hours in the first weekend then a couple of hours each weeknight to get it finished.

 

Say I'd done this work with the aim of selling the car on for a profit, how much is a tatty Visa Cabriolet worth with a years ticket on it?

Dunno. At a stab, I'd guess about £650-£850? Any advance on that?

[egg]

I expect Six-cyl will have an idea about prices here, but if it was in France about €1200-1500 I'd say!

[Jim Bell]

No good as a business plan then. Not with other costs piled on.

 

It's a good job you enjoy your hobby!

Undeniably a useful hobby.

.... that "Scottish Prick"...

Could you be a bit more specific?

[DodgyBastard]

It might have actually been Scottish cunt, it was said by a prolific shiter in the north east of England who has a habit of expressing interest in cars then falling off the face of the earth after agreeing to buy them.

[BavarianRetro]

I was just trying to work out how many on here could be called a "Scottish prick".

[Crispian_J_Hotson]

I would be if I forced a scottish accent, especially in scotland... so +1 then

I think you'll find I called you a SCOTCH EGG.

Is he a tasty yet conveniently portable snack?

[BavarianRetro]

Even, "lazy, big, grumpy, hairy, fat, beardy Scottish prick" only narrows it down to about a dozen.

[Tadhg Tiogar]

What, like Tunnock's Teacakes?

[brownnova]

Awesome to see that this passed and goes back to its owner! Super news!!

 

Well done Shite Knight!! I doff my cap in your direction sir!!!
