Mean Green 206CC....MOT pass

[chancer]

Bit of a last minute dash...left home at 5.30am...roughly 400 miles in already.....taxi, plane and train so far....first I've had a chance to get onto phone

PC 1

On the basis of what's happened recently I'm guessing a Renault Safrane. GLWTB.

[grogee]

Hope it's a SEAT Marbella. 

Safe travels. What did you have for breakfast? 

[chancer]

Not a Safrane. I've just realised that I've packed nothing but a phone charger for the journey home. Just under 450 miles....am I doing this properly?

No breakfast yet, one strong coffee is all I've had. Aww I wish it was a SEAT Marbella

Poo count?

Random guess from the for sale listings and the picture clue provided; you've bought  @wuvvum's Ampera.

One, as per first post. Poo count has been restricted by necking 2 immodium last night, and a further 2 this morning. That is probably the most preparation I have done for this journey

Wing it to win it. My man.

Living dangerously; kollecshun with digestive disturbance. Clenching to reach the next motorway services lavvy often results in excessive speed, and that's just in the corridor at Welcome Break.

Wee Glesga guy is hoofing it this morning

[rml2345]

What sort of Volvo is it?

[chancer]

One more stop

PC still 1

[loserone]

Roof down all the way please 

[grogee]

Brown Visa? Hope you get clear of the Wicked City unscathed. 

[bangernomics]

[chancer]

80 miles under its belt already...absolute peach...more reports later...cig lighter don't work...cant charge phone 🤣

[Stinkwheel]

nicely collected, hope your phone lasts 🤣

[Pieman]

A Shitting Peugeot (tm)!  Is that the one that was sold on here a while back with extras including a free Fray Bentos pie? 😂

[beko1987]

Thats awesome, a fab little summer beater! 

That you've bought just as winter is about to start... 👌😂

[chancer]

Southwaite services achieved. Car gets better as the miles pile on it, even the cigarette lighter has startedworking. This is my first stop since putting fuel in. 350 miles into the journey, the end is in sight

[chaseracer]

Top bombing, sir 😎

[chancer]

And home. 450 miles covered. Only stopped 80 miles in for fuel, and 350 miles in for a piss....straight up the road, nae fuckin about here. Big thanks to @grizz for sorting out arrangements for collection. Currently standing at the bar with a cold lager. Well earned today

[somewhatfoolish]

I have to say that is a very random guess - the for sale thread for the Ampera hasn't been updated since January!

[grizz]

Brilliant. 
 

I am sitting here in Hannibal Missouri having Cajun Catfish, fries and corn bread with Dennis whose birthday is today. 
 

I expected nothing less from the car.  
 

Glad you landed safe.

You look like you should be riding Harleys rather than driving, although that Sierra is a very acceptable mode of transport in itself.
