Shitting in the shallow end. *Arse friends Electric*

For those wishing to guess,

Clue number 2: It was assembled in Russia. 

[grogee]

It sounds fucking amazing. AvtoVAZ?

[Jim Bell]

For the great disappointment of everyone involved, 

Clue number three is that it's actually really modern. Built after the millennium.

Chod speed 👌

[timolloyd]

Ooo…Hyundai Creta?

[Lacquer Peel]

?

[paulplom]

Lada largus?

If, after collecting whatever donkey you fancy driving another 7 miles south your welcome to a brew and a poo (or more) in the bog at my workshop 

[HMC]

Aerovolga LA-8?

[grogee]

This, although I don't think it was made in Russia

[catsinthewelder]

Grand Scenic?

 

Best of luck

[Tickman]

In the interest of adding more to the tradition can I publicly call dibs for when you sell and at that time I will be completely unresponsive as if you were trying to sell the plague?

Please...

Your old yellow SLK? Did the Germans build them in Russia with extra seatage?

Good luck getting 7 seated in that and no it is staying outside mine.

Ha! I edited it at the same time as you wrote your reply 😅

[Jim Bell]

Good guesses but none correct so far. 

Clue the forth is that it has five cylinders. 

[grogee]

Wolwo estate with rear facing seats in the back?

Again, probably not in Russia.

XC90 in green with beige velour and a manual box….

[Jim Bell]

 

Arrived en Yorkshire. 

Super cheap rail ticket means I have some time to kill. I'll have a walk around and see if I can find a PEOPLE ONLY table to sit at for a bit. 

Must find a toilet too. I'll see if I can find a nice posh shopping centre or summat.

I recon it’s got a merc 2.7 turbo lump in it

(admittedly doesn’t narrow it down that much)

[paulplom]

Ssangyong rexton?

A quick google says they can be made in Russia.

[HMC]

I’m going to throw my hat in on a Russian build Daewoo musso 

[grogee]

Ooh hope it's one of these!

[Jim Bell]

What's Sheffield like then?

 

Aye. What are the folk like though?

 

 

Well that sounds a bit harsh. At least there's no chance of being attacked by the Great Blue Heron. I'd better just check the door to be on the safe side. 

 

No, not that door. The other door. 

 

Yeah that's shut so we'll be fine. 

[3VOM]

I thought that was going to be some sort of "Beware of the leopard" joke.

[Jim Bell]

Found somewhere for a sit down and a coffee. 

 

Perfect. Ideal for my needs. 

 

How's the coffee?

[Jim Bell]

One wise guesser has hit the nail on the head. 

Last clue is indeed that it is powered my Mercedes with an OM engine.

Cheers man, I'd have loved to but it'll have to be a rain check this time.

Ha, I've taken that pic!😁 The Belgian owner of this thing kept adding shiny trim bits, eventually it had chrome around the lamps, rear window and wheel arches as well. Truly a sight to behold...
