Got one!
I have bought a V8
This is the right time of year to buy a bargain I spent a month or so evaluating current dealer stocks and doing some really hard bargaining. I Turned down a ZTT estate in Chester although with TLC and some paintwork repairs it would have been fine and with hindsight perhaps I should have bought it! I looked at a really odd one in Grimsby which had started life as a Green MK1 car and is now a Black MK2 even so I would have bought it if they had accepted my very low offer Then last weekend one popped up on Ebay A saloon which I bought at around trade plus £100 it was cheap enough that I can keep my ZTT as well if I want to. More pictures to follow once I have cleaned it up a bit |

Previous owner was a globe trotting Dentist the fuel bill he has paid over the last year must be frightening I will only be doing about 5000 a year in it myself if that! I have not decided on a name yet maybe "Boris" |

You may have noticed that Tim has not been posting much in the last few hours....
Unfortunately, he fell off his chair when he saw that someone had knowingly and wantonly driven their 260 into some mud! He has not yet recovered from the shock, but should hopefully be back soon!
