I've suffered influence of Hyperbole 🥺

You and @AnnoyingPentiumhave my deepest sympathy. I left aged 12 and was sad. By the age of 18 I was so fucking thankful! Don’t think there’s a single lad from my class who didn’t escape in the end.

My parents now live  near Johnstone and I have drive through Maybole many times over the last few years heading for the ferry to Ireland (would visit them and combine it with trip to Ireland) and, whilst not wanting to cause any offence to anyone, what a fucking depressing town that is!

They've bypassed it now. You don't have to drive through it anymore, thankfully.

I've got friends in Johnstone, as an aside. :)

Ah yes, I did hear it was now finally open. My dad started campaigning for a bypass when he was chairman of the town council back in 1977 (and was driving a brand new mk4 Cortina to keep some car content🙂)

They’re now in Crosslee.

But this car does not engage into gear smoothly and for this reason it is being sold for spares or repair. It’s been to a Mercedes specialist for a gearbox problem, its showing fault codes for the control modules and gearbox. Please bear this in mind when bidding.

There's something appealing about his no frills 1.8 petrol Mondeo estate for £995. Decent miles, 1 years MOT.

Decent on fuel, No crazy modern car shit to deal with, practical, safe, comfortable and reliable. All you need to do is stop it rusting to bits.

Turns out the seller is rather complicated. Any South Glasgow shiters who'd want to check the car out today?

Do you know what part of Glasgow they're in?  The advert says Wishaw, which is quite a bit further out.

It looks pretty rough, are you after it for parts?

Yup, might be worth saving but its a parts car. I got the address and the seller seems decent but is very cautious about scammers, time wasters etc, hence in person only... And because everyone wants the car its first come, first serve.

A few more details here:

I could maybe go and see it tonight after work but if he’s got loads of folk after it it might be gone by then .

I think its worth a try. I'll send you a pm with the address, he getting lots of idiots so I'm sure he'd be happy for someone with genuine interest to show up.

Honda CRV £450

 

What's the catch? 12 months MOT, but he took it off roading deployed the airbags and then cut off the cat to get scrap value for it.

Honestly he sent me a video/pics and it doesn't look that bad, needs a windscreen and a passenger side mirror, but 12 months MOT for 450 quid? Decat already done!

Go for a G reg heap instead. Seriously, a Cavalier is a far better car than a Vectra in my opinon.

Loving the accent in some of your posts by the way! I went to school in Maybole back in the 70s/early 80s before moving south, so it makes me smile, thanks 👍

On the subject of G-reg cavaliers.. I remember seeing this one when it was up for sale a few years ago when they weren't worth as much. (~2013) It was very clean and if I recall was about £995!
