Well that's the 405 off the road and SORN till next year then

Predictably the V50 needed a jump start so glad I went armed with some decent leads.
The old girl was spotless last week but I've been driving round some extremely rural and narrow lanes the last few days so it's filthy. We went up by an Iron Age hill fort that's not too far from home but not somewhere any of us had gone out for a wander near before, the views were stunning

The old girl got a wash underneath too as there's a Ford near there where the stream bed actually forms the road for a number of yards.

I'll go back up there and give it a clean and wax before it gets put under cover.

Forgot to post these from the other week. That age old myth about what you find at the end of a rainbow has finally been busted

It also happened to be the exact spot that a patch of special shrooms happened to be which was a bit bizarre.

Hard work this one. Seller is virtually illiterate and any info is bare minimum. May walk away yet.

If I do get it the V50 is going.

I think Junkman is still trying to sell his.

Cheers but took a punt. Wish I'd have known earlier but hey ho

I'd have thought one looked after by him would be pretty good.

Sunroof is fucked and was sealed in but silicone has given way, headling is totally gone, signs of a water leak engine wise, been topped up with water, cracked aux belt, guessing the cambelt hasn't been done since at least 2005 looking at the history, if ever.
Radio is present but not fitted and doesn't work apparently. Keep fit windows and a stained drivers seat. Scratches, dodgy repair by the fuel cap.

Bargain

Comfy tho, apart from the sunroof rattling.
