Well, you will never have Car Karma then. My wife was given her first car by her sister. Suzuki SC100.

A bloke off the internet that i didnt know gave me a mk2 cavalier I tried to give a Rover 216 SLi to my brother in law. My father in law gave my son a mk4 astra My wife gave my daughter a BINI I tried to buy an allagro vandom plah off my grandad, but he gave it to my uncle who never drove it and scrapped it as soon as his dad passed away. Mostly the gift of car has been within family, but i might be tempted to give a car to someone I didn't know if they were weird enough.

loserone Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I gave away my first car to a lass I knew who had vanished for a year or so, then reappeared shacked up with a lad with three kids whose mum had passed away. It took him to work and the family around for 18 months or so then got them a financed Punto through scrappage. T911AJR New POD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, no I must have not been clear enough, I meant without offering it me! I actually gave away a car of mine away earlier this year to a lad in work who's clutch had gone on his car. No I'm all for giving them away if it helps out a friend or family member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife just bought a working, tested and freshly cleaned Peugeot for two ton, but that's life for you. Guess who just paid for new fuel filters for her too.. like plastic pigs, scrap value is approx -50 quid cos disposing of fibreglass is a wank. there fore all invacars are worth -50 quid. just like taking avocado coloured fibreglass baths to the tip.you get charged. same/same. cheapest car i had was a $20 1986 navara 2x4 dual cab. needed a windscreen. i do miss that old rammel. a proper autoshite car. it had 4 wheels see.....

paulplom Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I gave away a spare metro convertible a while back. In return the guy was meant to give me a lift to Glasgow for a gti I'd won on ebay and pay the tax on the metro. He turned up at mine when I wasn't in, Took the car and left the tax money with my ex. He'd worked out the tax money to the exact day and pennies. Wanker. BorniteIdentity and stonedagain 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will admit its funny hearing you say that when literally just the body shell (so literally JUST the fibreglass components) of an Invacar just sold on ebay for £695 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/133077005975 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HMC Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Well I do hope Demio ended up achieving his aim. Any updates? I understand it was to provide material to write about cars, but trying to dredge the depths of gumtree for a bargain could provide material for primatology research.

You will go all quiet on us, tell us nothing, put it all in print, and expect us to pay for it. I'd rather read Jim Mystic Mall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
