Surely someone round that way can get this bought and roffled before the weekend?

Indeed. £7 a ticket. If someone else can pick up, I'm happy to lend £100 to the buy-to-roffle pot. Anyone else in?

Yep, £100 here if needed.

Lovely flat front Fiesta.

Bit on the shiny side if anything, but nice nonetheless. Has a reserve and will probably go to someone who will spend all summer sitting next to it on a deckchair giving Metro owners the evils.

the front windscreen washers have stopped working but it is a simple fix

Selling on behalf of a friend that is no good with computers

Not too handy with bolting in a new washer pump either, presumably.

I'm pretty sure the more basic early Mk1s got a rubber bulb on the floor rather than an electric pump.  Don't recall whether the L was electric or not mind.

I'll put the last £100 in for that Visa if needs be. Now it just needs fetching.

@Iamgroot can you do logistics? Or is anyone else able to jump in?

I could have done the logistics, but could do today only and 90 quid in rail fare rules me out, sorry.

Greatly to my surprise, I can get from here to Bournemouth on Saturday for £35 - the last leg is by coach, but the coach isn't really any slower than the train.

That would pay for @TheDoctor's train.  Do it, let me know when to send the ££

That depends on who collects and handles it.  Wuv might be a good bet given cheaper travel costs

If someone can contact the seller, let me know if my services are needed, but I agree, keeping costs down is essential to make this a worthwhile mission. Wuvvum may be the better option 

Although I am having deja vu, Mazda 323 anyone? 

At least this one works I guess...

Message me with a PayPal address if you need some money for this.

Jesus, I'm getting giddy and I'm probably never going to see it!

Sounds like we have raised £500 (me, Dr, Wingz, Spartacus, Loser)

£400 for the car

£35 to cover Wuv's travel

£65 to cover a day's insurance + tax if needed (also send to Wuv)

£8.50 a ticket roffle.

If it all goes tits up worse each of us can lose is a ton...otherwise it's another Visa safely in the fold...

I'm pretty sure Wuv has trade insurance.

I'd defo be in for tix of a Visa roffle though.

Yeah, we can't even lose that. If we had to sell it for £250 then we'd still get £50 each back, man maths in full effect.

I'm good for the money, I'm not on my phone all day but if I get a message for it then as soon as I see it I'll send the dough over.

Someone contact the seller, let's get this done. 

I would but I'm out shopping (being dragged around shops) with the missus, and I'm not sure I can handle the stress...

I am glad this seems to be a go. I'm not a million miles away if needed on standby. I can drive to Bournemouth in less than a couple of hours.

Just called Visa seller - he's got someone coming to look tomorrow lunchtime, and he didn't want me to jump the queue, but we're next in line if tomorrow's bloke either doesn't turn up or doesn't have it.

I’m glad I was not alone liking the Visa. 
 

Fingers crossed that it makes it way here, I will be buying a ticket if it does. I would offer to help with logistics but although technically it’s not far from me, I have a costly stretch of water between me and it....
