    Yes a long steep hill the grand children call it BIG ONE HILL !!!! and yes we were very lucky that it didnt hit anyone as this is a very busy hill

    YES FC my dear friend you were there in spirit kicking the tyres, revving the engine and tapping the paint work, checking heaters and blowers .... and what a good choice you made

      ...

      no well done you for staying the course with my demands and needs lol ( dont you feel sorry for terry lol )

      i hope so
      I got lots of receipts for works down plus a full history book from previous owner, all the main things been done in the last 18 months, brakes, exhaust, cam belt :dbgrtmb: his wife has MS and cant drive that much now..... had a long visit.. chatted lots gave them the £900 as this is £100 less than it was advertised locally for yet still above their reserve ....
      they live on a farm so even have an offer for manure any time i want to go down for it lol
      a few rust bubbles but i poked and tapped them and they seem to be just on the surface so i will sort those out before it becomes an issue no knocks or bangs that can be seen so hopefully a good little run around

          Buying any car is a big decision, so your demands and needs are totally understandable.

          Sounds like an honest little motor that shouldn't be asking for anything too major in the near future :) - the offer of manure is great, not only for the garden, but it also suggests that they know the car is sound and you are not likely to turn up with a load of problems :blue thumb:

            Kaz, I noticed on the ebay auction page it says the remote locking doesn't work using the key fob. This is quite a common problem and you should be able to fix it simply by following instructions found by googling. Firstly it probably needs a new battery in the Fob, then follow these instructions:

                You're forgiven, providing you had a good day in your plot of course?

                  *hints to mods* FC deserves a *Brum Brum* medal for the amount of time spent on this - if you can make one hehe :dbgrtmb:
