Wow! you finally shifted the Monument! How sad is the loser exactly?
The Bronzit Beige car has exactly the same spec as my old '84.
Is it a rusty heap or not too bad? I need MORE pain in my sad little existenz

The victim who bought the sapphire turd (for £450 !) was a half swedish ginger from middlesborough with a stutter who worked in the 'security industry' ! how's that for a bad hand, i thought i'd been dealt a wrong'un but i got off lightly in comparison. He paid a £75 deposit about 7 weeks ago by cheque after spending 3 hours crawling all over the turd. He then rang me the following day to plead with me not to bank the cheque because he wouldn't have the money till next week !. To cut a long story short he finally picked it up after about 4 1/2 weeks of excuses and BS . He called me about 3 days later fffing and bbbing saying i'd sold him an unsafe car, it transpires he had been pulled by the 'filth' for a defective brake light, he had tried to change the bulb but ended up breaking the tail lamp lens (i told you he was thick ). I fitted a bulb and a good lens foc and made it clear to him that this is a 20 year old car and the warranty expired in 1986. The last i heard he was heading up to middlesborough the weekend of the bad floods, i hope he 's alright !
The bronze turd is a driver the engine ,box, interior are all good , the car isn't rotten but is a bit tatty. It could live again but probably best to frag it, the front struts and BBS front spoiler are good as well. The car still has some t+t .

You don't half pick 'em Hiab. It was unbelievably good of you to fit new tail lamp FOC. After he phoned you effing & blinding most of us would have put the phone down, and left him on his own. I hope you gave as good as you got.
As you rightly pointed out 20 year old £450 cars do not come with full parts & labour warranty.
Why do life's unfortunates end up in your front garden?

I want to sell the 735 complete rather than the aggro of fragging it . I want about £300 . If i found a victim for a few big bits ,i.e struts, interior, front bumper, ecu etc i may frag it but rather not . It is a taxed and mot'd driver.

[QUOTE=Ringa320] I drove the heap of sh*t back
last night.... [QUOTE]
But to be fair..........
Lovely engine (£200 all day long)
Nice autobox
Silent diff (LSD?)
Nice Buffalos
Couple of good Metric covers
Would drive okay once calipers are freed off.
