welshlad Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 The wife says the car has to go! all because of the times it and the one before it havnt started and ive had to push them etc. Absolutely devastated but i see her point ive always said im going to sort all the little problems but i take too long so i only have myself to blame and it doesnt help that i have a motorbike in the garage with the side casing off and not 100% working etc. Im not going to take no less than £1000 for it tho ive told her otherwise ill cover it up at the side of the garage, got a complete car nearly in spares apart from the shell, doors, gearbox, shocks/.springs and driveshafts and a spare new hub, new rear tie bars, etc etc anyone want it send me a message Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RScab Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Not good news Tony but don't be fooled thinkin newer cars r better a m8 just got himself a 18 month old Golf - gearbox just took the knock the bill so far 3k I'd sooner have a motor that's easier to sort myself than pay silly money to some dealer just to plug his laptop in.

Skittles80 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Fix the bike that's then one less thing to moan about then sell it and with the proceeds do some more jobs on the escort when she sees progress she may well change her mind once there are less problems to moan about on it good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Ollie Posted November 28, 2013 Admin Share Posted November 28, 2013 as above newer cars just expensive to run and repair focus just cost me £800 for service n oil diafram just run the cab as you do and sort the important things first modifications etc can wait good luck with what ever you decide Ollie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshlad Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 thanks for the comments guys it's gotta go tho I'm getting too much aggro I'll get her a car she wants then she will calm down and I'll get another one hopefully a aqua colour in concourse condition I'll be gutted to get rid of my spares tho but if I don't I'll never get roughly what I want for it £1000 and it owes me £1800 ish with the spares Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CoolCab Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Just hide it for a while. Take the wife away for a trip and she'll forget about it. You'll regret losing it. Spoken from xperience !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
