ive sold a engine on ebay to a chap in essex never thought he was comeing for it as he took ages to pay and kept making excusses,but last night phoned and said he would be hear tonight,gave him directions as hes about 150 miles away.now he speaks with a non english acent making it very hard to understand,but hes just phoned me and hes lost.hes got no sat nav or map and from what i understand hes gone about 50 miles past me and still traveling north.
cant belive he would set out without a map and hes hired a van as well.

My friend who collects Citroens broke a Xantia and had someone pick up the XUD to make a generator out of.
The man is probably doing laps of the M25 as we speak, looking for the Dover turnoff.
