Live collection thread! Amelia's Adventure begins

[Amelia]

Off to collect my next car!

Breakfast was honey hoops and coffee (forgot to take a pic before I finished).

Poo count: None but should have gone, running out of time though! 🤦‍♀️

Updates to follow!

 

[High Jetter]

Looking forward to this 

[grizz]

Oh shit. 
 

Always poop before you leave. 
 

Chodspeed indeed. 

[Amelia]

Important things first, outfit choice...

I have changed the boots to more sensible comfy ones though!

[Dobloseven]

FFS ,we want to see the car,not you!Get on with it!

[Amelia]

On the train now. I faffed around too much so there wasn't time to get the bus to the station 🤦‍♀️

So one last adventure for Jade..

Parking at station way cheaper than getting a taxi. 

Oops. Apparently I have --- miles of fuel left, and no electric 😅

Well, that's tomorrow Amelia's problem 🤣

[Amelia]

No guessing yet?

Clue 1.

It's the most modern car I've owned (company cars obviously excluded).

 

Ps. Typically, I haven't yet gotten to a cash machine, hopefully I can find one on the way...

Cars that cost the same or less than the ATM limit are always the most interesting, I've found...

 

I'm going to guess an end-of-the-line Proton Persona Compact from 2005?

[EyesWeldedShut]

Punto or a Panda.
No logic attached to that at all.

 

[JJ0063]

Invacar, limo, black cab or a Renault Kangoo with a wheelchair ramp.

Luckily I have more than one account to draw from, and I also visited the cash point yesterday, so it's more than 2 cash machine withdrawals, but less than 3.

Also I once owned a 2007 Mini Cooper, so that should help with the age thing.

Not a Fiat. 

Clue 2. It is very small.

Invacar - not if it was the last car on earth.

The rest are good calls, but none of the above. I'm being sensible for once 🤣

I want to see a picture of her lying on the floor, with a torch, looking for evidence of rust repair or evidence that it's not been through a chop shop and is in fact parts from 3 cars. 

This is Autoshite and I'm expecting a change of clothing on route into dungarees.

I do need to change at some point as I'm heading to a 5 a side football match in East London at 6pm, and not sure I can make it home in time to change. 

I've brought my football kit, boots, gloves, shin pads etc with me.  

[Amelia]

Next clue.

73bhp. 

[Tommyboy12]

A BL product of some description is my guess!

[castros_bro]

Trabant

With a Wollard in matching year Deutscher Fußball-Verband der DDR kit.

Dacia?

[Amelia]

Train WiFi is shocking and signal is intermittent. So updates may be sporadic. 

 

Destination: Leicester.

 

Train snacks acquired

Another clue: It's a bit of an animal apparently.

[Agila]

Whatever it is? it will be mint, hopefully there will be no holes in it.

If that's too big then  one of those Up! things?
