Weird Car Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 So as some may have read in my Getz for sale ad, I recently received my payout from the insurance company for my written off Fiat 500, so we all know what that means, NEW DAILY TIME!! Currently waiting for a wee Cooper S with @calebaaront behind the wheel to show up then we head off for a 3 hour drive to Bedford to collect said motor and hope this collection thread hasn’t cursed us! progress to follow Poo Count currently at 1 Matty, AnnoyingPentium, Tickman and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
