whats everyone else
Evening all! Sara is a two litre v6, she had 68500 miles on the clock, she had one owner, and cost 1570. Costs: insurance 980 odd pounds, big service 250 pounds, tyre 88 pounds, and MOT and struts next week about 380 pounds. No regrets though; she has given me access to this forum, and laughs aplenty with that, plus I've met some great people at the meet too. I would like to go further afield for the next meet though, so any suggestions?
