Russian roulette?

Be prepared to change all the wheel bearings though?

It's not a proper clio unless it's got gaffer tape around the sunroof

Point taken, but grass covered in fox piss stinks out the interior worse than fag smoke

My daughter is with Barclays, they're far from perfect, but they've been very good at sorting out her online worldwide purchasing nightmares. I'm with NatWest. When I got £2700 scammed out of my account by some French woman you'd have thought I was complicit from their response!

I've just found out how much a skip costs to hire, and with that in mind, the next 'smoker' may be a van?

I've heard good things about them, whereas HSBC?

Just edited this for you Personally, if I have to view hundreds of cars every week, I want to do it in a nice warm auction hall drinking coffee with my mates!

Same here. And i thought buying at the block was risky? Although if you have a small specialised shopping list and can afford to invest the time and miles. But still.....?

Would it not be better to pay someone to do the campers and you stick to the cars?

Totally agree. There's always been con men, nothing new there? I'm guessing that if you regularly source stock privately its one of the downsides. Apart from wasting hours driving around everywhere?

+1 Usually sorts the wheat from the chaff

Looks like it's driving out of a 'traveller site'

Although they failed to leave a dozen red roses on the drivers seat?

I don't drink or smoke either but my 'luxuries' are not motoring related

Is it speed limited?

He's left a deposit on it!

I'm with you. Sadly, the cars I sell easily are of no interest to me other than profit. Cars I'm love are now way too valuable and inappropriate to 'smoke' around in. So I amuse myself by using whatever is safe and comfortable and stands me in the least! Bangernomics, I'm in! PS: Although if my present old Focus requires new o2 sensors it will have to go

99% of the time it runs fine but, randomly it will go bad. Do you think its strange that both front sensors have failed together?

I suppose your right to the keys is trumped by you not having the 'right' to use the road. Driving is not a right but a privelege. But its an interesting position all the same.

Are they sure it's the cooler not just the pipes? https://chryslerbreakers.co.uk/

Been smokin' around in yet another old Focus 2005 and been hammering up and down M1 last few weeks for various reasons racking up the miles. Yesterday it suddenly developed a stumble at idle along with flat performance that comes and goes (I thought it might be MAF). Codes are p0133 and p0153 "Oxygen Sensor Circuit Slow Response". Some research has shown they could just be 'lazy' but it seems weird that both should fail together? What does the CDM collective think?

Engine mounts

I'm with you 99%, just not the Pagoda/Merc bit. In fact I've owned a 70s red 911 and I've been in a CV8 (nice noise). My first love is and has been classic Lotus. I've owned and driven most of them warts and all. But, as I've mentioned before I wouldn't want to sell them. These days I HATE having any money in a smoker. It's a standing joke in my family, the old shitters I tend to drive around in. Scat?

Another point to make is that personally although I love 'classics' I'd never want to sell them!
