Unhappy Well Guys I'm Considering To Sell Mine As Well

Well guys I've decided to sell mine as well... nothing wrong with me or the car I just simply need to reduce my out goings plain and simple.

Most of you know the car I'm looking first at selling complete and later if needs be I shall strip the extras off. Don't go like a pack of vultures on me for parts as some of them are already promised to certain people if need be. I'll list what's available as and when.

MY00
55,500 miles
Cam belt service by API in Jan 06.
Ace Motorsport intrim service in July.

















I've a figure in mind for complete so if anyone is interested pm me please.
Initially I've just dropped this in here for you to see but I'll be doing a full listed for sale thread in the next day or two.

Kev, now Si selling up........next you'll be telling me the world is ruled by an elite race of lizards who have assumed human form and have taken up positions of authority in the major government powers around the world!!!!


....my mistake, that was David Ike.

But, never-the-less, WTF is going on.

Just a timing coincidence here as simple as that... I'm not looking to buy anything else I just need to get of this rollercoaster for a short while and let the money pot recover.

I'm not leaving you can't get rid of me that easy !!!

Si, I'm stunned.

All the hard work you've put into the car keeping this in a mint condition, though I can see your point about saving money as since I sold mine you just realise how much you save.

Next it'll be Daz & Simb selling up.

Anyway good luck with the sale mate.

Right, here`s the story.........

Me and Palmer went to Nottingham to pick up my lovely new Evo 6............
Im in my diesel Ford Focus company car, Palmer drives the Evo back for me........
We decided to make a quick stop at the first services to have a bite to eat.....
Palmers in front as we come down the slip road and approach a big huge roundabout, we need to go right to the services so Palmers in the right hand lane.....
He stops as traffic is coming round the r/a/bout........
I shoot down the left and use my momentum to come out behind the last car coming round, now im in front of Palmer but im technically in the wrong lane...
So, I floor it and my wheels are screeching and burning serious rubber as I go round the r/a/bout........
My windows down, its a really hot day.......
I hear screeching coming from my right, lots of screeching!!!!
Its Palmer, he`s coming round sideways in my lovely new Evo 6!!!
He gets in front of me and then has to go off left into the services......
But not with out a big wobble and a slide though!!!!!
He gets out and says "I wasnt expecting it to do that"!!!!!!

Gutted for you Simon, must be a hell of a tough call to give the car up ... its the first time give had to put the sunglasses on when I got out of my car as I parked up next to your scoob The light reflecting of your scoob made my grubby black scoob look a lot better.

As we discussed I know what you mean about the costs though, there are times when mine is living on borrowed time !!!

Thanks Gareth... was you at the friendly last week I did not see anyone running the line
And yes mate needs must I'm afraid.... I've had 2 Sports and this turbo total of around 5 years of ownership so time just to step off for a while and look at the bigger picture for five minutes anyway

The new owner will not need it valeted that's for sure

We were both really . can't believe thats two of you now.
Hope we will still get to see you plenty, I know we are new comers but you both made us very welcome and I don't think things would be the same without you and your beauty's.

A friend of ours is looking for a scoob and i shall pass the sales on, not sure what sort of budget he has but I shall tell him about both cars.

I'm thinking of just that Danny.

Don't worry Gem I'm still going to be about and I'll be coming to the meets and the events it just means I'll need a lift for a few of them.
I simply need to reduce my out goings for a while
Not an easy step giving it up but needs must
