Back_For_More Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Up at what the fuck o'clock and underway. Fellow shiter awaits far yonder. What delights will this morrow provide This pile of demi century tissue needs not much at this hour So into the night with gilet - but which polished bonce cover to have discerning ladies fawning? Boy racer beanie or Farmers day out in the smoke? and my body clock is correct.... Far too early to be up and about Living out of streetlight catchment just means I sneak up on foxes Ah.... Civilisation First wheels sorted And a check on the plans as we trundle off Ah BOLLOX......... 🙄 Let's see what we can do about that then.........

Back_For_More Posted November 12, 2022 Author Share Posted November 12, 2022 Almost forgot PC: 0 And we're off..... Southern comes to the rescue as I'd left the phone hooked up to my duff cable.... So 10% warning. The car was advertised here for small change and with life getting in the way I forgot all about it...... A fellow shiter grabbed it eventually and I'm now paying a bit more - but for a roadworthy steed. Collection point clue: taming and interr I've wanted one of these and it was this or Alfa4s rat SAAB but I was away and missed out. That is now bean tins apparently 😞 but the hunk of wonder that is now mine fills the gap plus has 4wheel drive 😁 GagaStan, JMotor, mk2_craig and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back_For_More Posted November 12, 2022 Author Share Posted November 12, 2022 Just dawdled through Stafford Station. Missed grabbing a pic but there's a full West Rrailways restored engines and carriages buffet special sitting ready to head off.... Couple of monster diesels each end. One ended 676..... Pissed I missed papping it but Google says it is Spirit of the Lakes. What a beauty Floatylight, davehedgehog31, outlaw118 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back_For_More Posted November 12, 2022 Author Share Posted November 12, 2022 Smart man Mr Hairnet..... Shrewsbury it was. Collected from said station by Scott 83C of this parish in the Fabia vrs...... Thanks fella. Met the family, whooped the girls at the gymnastics competition 😁 and had Harry the Lab my new bestest friend. Docs done online..... And I'm away in the new (to me) shed/workhorse. I trawled 100s of the BBW sites but Google led me a right dance. Couldn't find bring-back-woollarding.com to save my life (or relationship) So you lot have to suffer. Forester S Turbo Manual...... Wanted one for ages but most seemed to be autos. Happy to pay the extra for an MoT on it after original owner Mark had it sitting a while. Scott has got it a ticket and I'm enjoying motorway cruising on my way back down south. Happy customer.

Back_For_More Posted November 12, 2022 Author Share Posted November 12, 2022 Apparently my stopover didn't publish.... Damn it. Rugby Services..... Scrum on in you say - alrighty then. Volvic flavoured water, mango and pineapple chunks. Not worthy of posting as not real motorway fodder. Land rover looked a meaningful bit of kit.... apologies for terrible shadow pic All good with the boxer Already home - 200miles without too much bother, nnone of it from the car. Can't stop opening the window to listen to it. Tunes to be sorted - Scott warned me. Deep clean and she's a good'un. Clutch is low, but no trouble and after I work her hard and put her away wet I'll treat her to bits n bobs now n then. Sun shone the entire way down. Chod-god smiling down upon a lonely disciple.

I love the burble from the boxer engine..... This has a Sebring tailpipe that gives a sousense of added je ne sais quoi to the final result..... Not intrusive at all but a nicer bass to it. I'll give it a proper going over in the coming weeks and add the rest of the fleet here.... Turn this into my ongoing fuckups thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
