Fabergé Greggs Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Lads, lads, lads. Its been ages since I bought a thing, and I LOVE BUYING THINGS. I couldn’t sleep last night, for instance. I feel great because buying vehicles SOLVES ALL OF LIFE’S PROBLEMS (apart from parking permits). Anyway, I just agreed to buy a thing, with collection commencing today or tomorrow. In the meantime, let’s spy on the vendors house on street view shall we? My little bundle of joy is tucked in behind that rather tasty 164.

Crackers Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 That Alfa looks a bit smokey, I'd be concerned about its service history if I were you. BlankFrank, wuvvum, chodweaver and 5 others 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bramz7 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 I'm assuming that it has a Bosch pump. Either some old diesel Fiat or a BX Estate. Fabergé Greggs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMC Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 As people who like Alfas can be fanatical, I’m thinking behind the 164 is another Alfa, or at least a Fiat. Am I warm? Fabergé Greggs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fabergé Greggs Posted October 14, 2019 Author Share Posted October 14, 2019 Well, we're on for a tomorrow morning collection. The collection mission will be undertaken entirely by bicycle: 13 miles to the opposite side of the world (London). bangernomics, Jim Bell and Burnside 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bramz7 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Okay I've called it as a Citroen BX19 Auto Estate. I haven't seen one for sale or anything, but it has to be that. It has to be. I will be livid if it isn't. chodweaver and Fabergé Greggs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, plus the smoke cloud doesn’t look big enough for it to be a van or Mk1 Scenic etc. Slightly curiously, that looks a bit like my road and I’m over the other side of that London, but I don’t think anyone here has a 164.
