jims-terrano · 17-07-2012, 00:27

Well have any of you lot missed me then

Nah probably not.

The old Girl's in for her MOT in the morning so fingers crossed.

How much do you guys reckon she's worth?

"R" Reg 97
27TDi LWB SE Touring with 140k on the clock.
Recent clutch, Starter and Battery. Had all the bits welded that usually need welding. Starts every morning, just took her for a stroll down the motorway to Sheffield Parkway and back tonight and run's nice n sweet.

Haven't made my mind up yet as it depends how much I can raise to put too and also what else I need to replace in the house.

Course we missed you, where you bin, Rick

Hi Jim

Mine is a 98 but i have not seen a T2 has good yet even 04 taty inside engine bay looked like it had not been serviced for years. On Autotrader all the best T2 over 200 Miles from yorkshire.

Glen

jims-terrano · 17-07-2012, 07:29

Well she's in the garage now awaiting them to finish they're bacon sarnies and get started.

Rick - busy with another organisation and can't see it getting less busy but hopefully a worthy cause.

Glen - Yeah I know what you mean about the T2's for sale. Would love a younger model but similar ideas to you (other post of yours). Trouble is insurance man hit me where it hurt!!! NFU £744 but have got it cheaper but wife wants to get car through MOT before we take out a policy then we don't get stung with cancelation fee's.

clivvy · 17-07-2012, 07:59

very wise to wait on the MOT. best shop around too, insurance is getting a shake up soon....watch this space.

I hope it passes, should then giev you the freedom to make a decision about the car under a mor relaxed atmosphere. I still reckon £1500-£2k comparing to autotrader/Ebay, which is most people bench mark these days!!

briggie · 17-07-2012, 08:41
