SteersWithThrottle Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Time to go and collect the Insignia from @Jazoli and I set off from Hebden Bridge train station an hour ago. Sadly I seemed to have picked Chav day to travel; that or I accidentally got on the Millennial/Chav carriage.

SteersWithThrottle Posted October 30, 2020 Author Share Posted October 30, 2020 It was full of noisy shell-suited ne'er-do-wells, with nought better do than play shite (bad shite, not good shite, sadly) music, talk shite loudly, and not wear masks, while consuming shite food ie McDonald's etc. Still, I made it to Preston station without murdering anyone, now just have to wait an hour for the next leg of my train journey to begin.

Jazoli Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I drove it to work today after using the golf for a week, I'd forgotten what a nice place it is to sit and so quiet compared to a creaky 20 year old VW Its peeking round the corner at me, it knows its time, like a dog when you take it to the vets for the last time.

SteersWithThrottle Posted October 30, 2020 Author Share Posted October 30, 2020 Pretty sure the Veccy knows its days are numbered too, it flashed a bunch of warning lights for a few seconds on my way home from work on Wednesday, the clocks died for a few seconds also. I need to get the V5 for it (only had it 3 years, gimme a break) so I can sell it to some worthy forum member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteersWithThrottle Posted October 30, 2020 Author Share Posted October 30, 2020 Back and sat at my PC, none the worse for wear. Made it to The Lakes only a few minutes behind schedule, and thankfully it wasn't raining. Met Mr Jazoli, and had a chat (about cars, what else?) while we sorted paperwork etc, thoroughly nice chap, even made me a cup of tea. The car seems pleased to see me, it's smiling! djim, theshadow, privatewire and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazoli Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Nice to meet you Anders and glad you managed to beat the Kendal traffic I'm sad to see the car go if I'm honest as its been brilliant for me and I'm regretting it a little but onwards and downwards, I have a £24 VW Golf for the winter!

SteersWithThrottle Posted October 31, 2020 Author Share Posted October 31, 2020 It'll be posted for sale as soon as I receive the V5. I'll get the V5 shortly after I remember to apply for it (3+ years and I didn't remember yet, don't hold your breath). It'll have a short Boris MOT and a list of niggly jobs needed to pass, some of the parts will be included (rear arb D-bushes for example).

Sounds like it would be safer for everyone if I had the Vectra instead. No need to thank me, we all have to contribute and do our bit. 😁 Cavcraft and SteersWithThrottle 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
