Title: Time to go, booo hooo hooo . . .
Post by: Mister Rog on 23 September 2016, 21:49:45
I'll be putting proper details in the For Sale section when I get some pictures taken and get relevant info together. Plus I don't want to get knuckles rapped for making this a full advert  ::)

But, I've decided the MV6 must go. Just before leaving for France in July it started playing up, engine missing and management light on. No time to get it sorted so I bought a Volvo from my mechanic. He then had the MV6 and said something about water in the plug wells, not really sure. It was ok for a while, but now the same thing. I just don't do DIY and I'm not going to spend more money on it, so it needs to go. Two problems, it's not running right still missing and still light on, and It's in Carmarthen, a long way from anybody. I'll be offering it with a complete sets of decent spare wheels that I bought from Joff.

Details to follow soon. Just giving a heads up. Be a shame to just scrap it  :'(

Are you going to try and find the engine before you sell it?

Oh ha bloody ha  ;D It's all there, and goes like shitoffashovel, when light is not on. Only last year took it in a 2,500 mile jaunt around Frogland, no probs

Well...I don't want to burst your bubble...but......you seem to be quite attached to it, and you'll only get pennies on here.

Yep, I know, right load of tight gits  :y  But not too bothered about squeezing every last penny.

This is an OLD picture, taken about 3 - 4 years ago

If I showed you a picture of my car 4 years ago, it would be brand new. It's not now...if you see what I mean  ;D

Would you consider a straight P/X for the bile green Astra?

Mr Rog may be tempted. :)

No he wouldn't. He's thinking that the money that he doesn't spend on the MV6 would go on a sporty runabout for him and Mrs Rog. Maybe an older Mazda MX5 ? ( IF Mr Rog can fit into one !  ::) )

What if STM0 offered you the bile green Astra plus £1000.

Could you be tempted then?
