I've owned 100 cars since 1999.

On 1st April I will be collecting number 101.

 

It is an economical car, that has 11 months MOT. It is pre 2001 and is the higher tax bracket.

 

No more clues until tomorrow evening...

Remember the rules

 

1) food shot of some sort

2) petrol station shot

[loserone]

9) poo count

[eddyramrod]

3) The Woolard shot.

I iz disappointed. The thread title made me think you were getting one of these.

 

 

[Amishtat]

I thought Vauxhall Victor until I read the higher tax bracket bit..

[volvoman]

Surely you jest.

Buying a car on April fools day?!...It just cant be done.

I adore those. One day maybe...

[DoctorRetro]

I'm confused though, when does poo count begin? The day of collection? The day you agree the sale?

If we are counting anxiety poos, that will be a high number, especially as I've agreed to buy a car I haven't even seen a picture of!

Me too, I used to drive one of these years ago in Scotland and have always wanted one since.

Whichever happens first.

[purplebargeken]

So, gotta be deasil.

Not necessarily. I once owned a 1.4 Fiat Tipo with 234,000 on the clock.

Glad I’m not the only one that suffers anxiety poos. I don’t suffer anxiety in any other form, other than pooing in great numbers before anything out the ordinary

[DoctorRetro]

Pick up confirmed for 8.30pm tonight. 

Insurance changed over.

Anxiety poo count = 0

Although I have had to take some heartburn medicine, could be related?

 

There's no way buying a 25 year old car with 209k on the clock that you haven't even seen a picture of would make you nervous is there? 

 

First clue: Engine capacity 1904cc

[Supernaut]

Economical but engine size dictates higher tax bracket. Gotta be diesel.

 

1,904cc though. Hmm. XUD was 1,905.

VW TDIs seem to be 1,896cc according to wikipedia. Unless it really is an XUD but with a typo.

[Jim Bell]

XUD Peugeot 405.

[Fat_Pirate]

XUD BX!

Oops. Not an XUD that I'm aware of though

[DoctorRetro]

I'm wrong again. It does indeed have a N/A XUD engine. 

[320touring]

Rover r8?

[Lacquer Peel]

FSO Caro.

[ProgRocker]

Citroen Xantia Diesel?

 

Edit: erased 'turbo'.

[GeordieInExile]

306. Base with grey bumpers and no PAS.

[DoctorRetro]

Clue 2: It is being purchased from a member of this forum...

[Hertz]

Pug 405?

[Jim Bell]

205 innit clart.

[DoctorRetro]

Seller has brought collection forward. Leaving the house now.

 

Poo count: 1

[Shirley Knott]

Ooos! I love anything that involves some NA diesel action, I'm 100% behind you on this purchase.
