Roffle no longer required

[DoctorRetro]

Right, I've landed myslef in the proverbial, by bidding on something I really can't afford. 

So, let's do another multi-prize roffle eh? 

£6.50 tickets, 3 for £18

In the Red corner, we have the mighty rescued 1987 Mazda 323, complete with carb trouble and 11 months MOT. - NOW SOLD. 

In the Silver corner, we have the latest forum bike, the 1999 Nissan Almera 1.5, complete with scrapes and scratches and 4 months MOT 

And the newcomer, in the Gold corner is a lovely 1992 Rover 416 auto, with 6 months MOT. 

Any takers? 

 

Just to clarify, the winner gets to choose the prize from the three above cars.

416 only MOT'd until January, not that it should affect the value much.  Unless seller is putting 12 months on before you collect it?

[ThePollitt]

#06 #12 #37 please and thank you.

Is that 323 driveable now?

Yeah, just running rough and vacuum advance doesn't appear to be doing its thing. I'd not want to depend on it for any distance though

Oops, my bad. Amended

[Mr_Bo11ox]

I really like that 323, it looks a very cheery little thing. If its effectively a non-runner though, trying to shift it 160 miles (with no current A-frame capability) is probably beyond my current available commitment levels

[spartacus]

I'll tow it with a pole if you win Bo11!

[spartacus]

I don't want or need any of them, but I'll have 6 and 26 please.

Collect car, attempt heroic drive home, breakdown recovery if it shits itself.

That's how we got here in the first place

Isn't that the modus operandi on here? I never buy a car at an opportune moment - I try to ensure the drive is full, I have lots of other things going on in my life, and then bid on an unseen crock. 

For fun *. 

[purplebargeken]

I'd go for the Mazda personally but I'm sadly not. 

[95 quid Peugeot]

If anyone goes for a direct purchase or a rapid roffle. Storage at stowmarket available   post. Purchase/win

[vulgalour]

Mr Boll, can't you just wedge the 323 in the back of the Dodge?  Easy win that way.

[Dan_ZTT]

Amazing 

 

I'd like to be sure I haven't won the MGF before entering... will have a random if still some available after that draw

 

For the record, I'd have the Rover 

[sutty2006]

Fuck it. Put me down for #25 if it’s available. If not a random. I don’t need or want any but I like a laugh. 

[garellikatia]

Is the 416 drive able? If so stick me down for a random . That's a beauty 

[djoptix]

Fuck yeah, I'll have 17, 44 and a random please.

[DoctorRetro]

Just to add insult to injury, the landlord has pulled me up on the fact I'm using too many spaces. I only have 2 cars, so need to shift one fast! 

He's got a point, as we technically only have one allocated space per flat.

I’d also like to be sure...but where’s the fun in that?

I’ll take three randoms please

[sporty-shite]

Go on then, I'll have three randoms please. 

[DoctorRetro]

So that's 15 claimed out of 59.

Im not sure that's quite going to save the Rover situation. 

 

I'm also willing to take a hit on the Mazda to get it off my hands, so 250 quid takes it. ?

Not in a good place right now, but that's just my shit I have to deal with. 

[BlankFrank]

Whereabouts are you located? Considering the Mazda myself but wondering about the distance for the trip home.

Cheers, a bit far for me to A-frame it. I'll text Wingz to see what quote he might have for delivery.

 

[Wingz123]

Can 95QP hold onto one to ease tensions between landlord? Or if taxed can you park it anywhere else?

[BlankFrank]

Doctor, I'll have the Mazda on saturday for 250. Wingz has probably filled you in, or will do shortly. (essentially, i'm buying it via his delivery to me)

[Wingz123]

I'll square you up Doc ?

PM'd you doc
