bunglebus Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Ah now you're talking! Right up my street although those SDI engines are not exactly a powerhouse. Bring it round for inspection some time!

DoctorRetro Posted May 13, 2021 Author Share Posted May 13, 2021 Fucksake, why do cool cars always come up just after you've bought something!? Got a chance of this.... I'd have to either get rid of the Metro or run a third car though, so I probably need to shut my eyes and hope it sells quickly. It's 'oop North' too, so a pain to collect... crad, Coprolalia, privatewire and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wants £500 He said 'Nearest train stations are Barnetby, Habrough, Brigg, Grimsby, Scunthorpe. ' However he updated the post on FB yesterday with this: 'This car knows something is up. It's broken down near Stallingborough if anyone wants it. Top end sounds really bad 😂' It wasn't advertised yet, it belongs to someone I know.
