I did once, but he changed his mind, which I didn't mind him doing since it'll always be his car to me, if that makes any sense..

Well if he ever does decide to let it go, I'd be very happy with first dibs, or at least a place in the queue

As many people have correctly mentioned, I do indeed have a digit. It's not in the greatest of condition, and will need some fairly serious work to restore, including a fair bit of fabrication (I hate to use the term welding.. the welding aspect is the easy bit), a complete respray, and some general mechanical reconditioning.

This is a bit appropriate at the moment, as I am now having to move house. 8 years at the same place with plenty of space and no need to move stuff on has meant that I now have waaay too much stuff for one person.

Consequently, the question of the Digit raises it's head again. If there's someone out there who can give it the restoration it deserves, then it's available. Talk to me.

Oh, you utter bastard!

Do I really need another car in my life? Have I actually got any room left for another car?

These questions and more will be answered in next weeks enthralling edition of "owning far too much crap, mostly bus sized, some of which goes, most of which probably never will again".....

Its not JUST a car is it, its a Digit!

So you know what you should do!

I wouldnt mind it but as its beyond my capabilities as you cant polish new metal on.

I know what I'd like to do, but whether or not I actually should is the bit I'm a tad stuck on..

TBH, the question of what to do with it can be delayed if I can find another hidey-hole for it for the time being....

Would you all shoot me if I considered the possibility of a 19TGD estate Digit?

Well, sounds like the dash has got to come out anyway!

Seriously, I adore it and hope its future can be secured.

Yes, and I have a gun!

This car has to be restored by someone sometime, its so so rare now. hence probably why David has held on to it, if it were just any old BX I expect it would have been bean cans a while back!

If my missus knew I was sitting here trying to think of a way to do this she'd probably leave me! sell the valver is all i can come up with and I DON'T want to do that!

Post by **docchevron** » Wed Aug 18, 2010 12:32 pm
