Phil's 28k mile white 16TGS auto ON OFFER

I kind of understand Tim, but in all fairness I have been open to offers for a while now, and the guy I met from the CCC wasn't able to move on it, so no takers. I can't afford to wait as, apart from anything else space, time, security (I have a two week holiday coming up) and insurance costs all count against me.

Anyway I have some serious BX-enthusiast interest so will keep you informed!

Aye, when it's got to go, it's got to go.

Make sure you vet him well Phil, credit references, bank statments, check with the local constabulary, does he have a garage etc etc

SOLD!

SOLD to a BX fan. Picks it up tonight if all goes according to plan. I will of course encourage him to join the forum!

Then, for the time being I'll be BX-less for the first time in four and a half years

Phil if you want I can send you pictures of my car regularly aswell as a course of pills to help you through those long evenings.

Don't rub it in, Tim

Well, the guy was true to his word. A happy chappy I think, as he drove off into the sunset

So I am BX-less. But a few quid better off... And with a holiday imminent, that's no bad thing.

He did say he'd register on the forum as soon as he got the chance.

Good man, Phil dont be a stranger now your a non bxer!

I've always been a bit strange. As for stranger?

No worries, I enjoy this forum too much to give it up.

And I can't believe that TGS will be my last BX.

Ahem.

So: Phil's had a lot of pleasure out of that car, it doesn't seem to owe him any money, and a fan has taken it away. With a bit of luck the forum will gain a new member too.

I don't see any downsides - except for Phil having to put up with a ZX for a while

You want to sell it to my girlfriend, don't you? We'll give you £100 for it

I'm sure it won't be your last Philip. Glad to see the car's gone to an enthusiast and look forward to them joining up here.

Just happened to have my copy of Haynes handy, Stuart!

Not now you won't! I reckon I'll run it until mid-spring next year, then ask me again!

(£100. As if!
