I actually like it.

Good colour, and in side profile has nice proportions.

Also, seems reasonably good value with the price of cars today. And being a derv 58,000 miles is sweet f*uck all. I imagine the diesel motor will still be running long after you own motor has stopped for good.

Thanks.....I think

That old derv lump could last anything up to 3 years, so I'm on pretty safe ground thinking it will outlast you.

About as long as the Scalectrix Jaaag battery then

There will be much wailing and gnashing of teeth!

Going to pick it up now

Good for you. Looks nice! 

Did he take your Astra off your hands?   

[STEMO]

Got it home, so now I can STFU for a while. Getting used to a manual box will take a while, esp approaching roundabouts from 70mph 
He's gone to Birmingham so left me the keys in a safe place. The Volvo keys were also in there, and it was parked next to mine, so I'm guessing that's sold too.
The Astra is sorted and parked up in a stable yard, ready to be hauled away.

I drove a manual box the other day and it's a bit like riding a bike......something you don't forget.

That reminds me. Did you have to push the clutch (the pedal on the left in ) to start it. Not something we used to do.

Have to say I really enjoyed it.

I think this will prove ideal for you and Muttley in the twilight years.

Yes, I think so too.
Usual things to sort, one key and a bottle of glue. Space saver ordered and Timpsons will do me a key for £150.

Oh....and an extra £19 on my insurance.

Looks a very good buy Steve..👍

You have to blame the famously stupid, incompetent and lazy litigious Americans for it being 'necessary' today.

[STEMO]

No, not on this one.

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

No, not on this one.

What sort of warranty did they give?

Cheers, Mick.
