With those mods it's definitely sellable :y

Yes he'd might get more with a no reserve listing on ebay. Although saying that, I did that with the Mondeo, it went to £155, the buyer didn't make contact and later cancelled via ebay.  ::)

Does anyone sell LPG anymore?  All the places round here where I used to fill mine up have stopped selling it.  :-\

I saw some for £1 a litre the other day. Yeah, right.  ;D


Pretty much all the Morrisons forecourts still sell it around here for a quid a ltr

Trouble is if it’s £1
A litre it’s no cheaper than petrol to run on

I paid 129.9 a litre for 8 litres ( just short of 2 gallons) the other day. Hopefully enough to last until February or March.

Sadly the jack went through the chassis when I tried to jack it up so imho, unless somebody wants a welding project its now fubar  ;(

There is a hell of a lot of good parts on it but and some of them will be pretty rare nowadays so i'll ring around for scrap value and then go from there.
If somebody on here is interested, let me know.
Obviously I would love it to stay in the OOF community.

I just want to say a massive thanks to the lads on here past and present.
I joined when I was in a pretty bad place in life and the help and advise I got with my omega's and other stuff on here was incredible.
Some stuff you don't forget  :)

All the best

I wrote mine off six years ago now.  :(. But, as it was only a humble Desmond it doesn't really count to the glitterati.  :-X ;D
