its an import, so it may not come up on confused .com.
itwas imported in dec 08 from Ireland. this plays no affect on the insurance as its been imported from the Uk,

Previously registerd as YJI 9063 its from the posh parts of ireland so ibelieve 8)
Altho this cars come from ireland its not been abused, id say its been Garaged most of its life,
Vin/chassis no is VF38BRH2E80865514 feel free to do a car check on it she is koshir tho,

iirc: Steve earwig kindly ran this through Service pox once and got a list up for us theres a thread on it somewhere on the forum, :roll:

The import bit makes sense.

Aye, Northumberland is oop north, I'm about 20miles from the Scottish border, and there's no main train stations mid way between the two, besides Manchester is only 2 hours or so down the road. I shall have a word with my insurance company tomorrow and get back to you, but if it goes via eBay, then so be it.

I'll get onto the insurance in the morning and then stick a post up on here. I should be able to talk one of my mates into driving my car back and I'll bring the 406. It's not that bad driving to Manchester. I drove to Warrington and back to collect something I'd won on eBay about 2 months back and it only took 2-3 hours ish and that was pootling most of the way.

99% sure I'm going to have it, just need to sort the insurance first.

Right, the premium increases by a whopping £31.10 for the remaining 8-9 months of the contract.

Me thinks I will be having this car. Just need to check with one of my mates re lifts, but I'll take it (if it's not gone via eBay already) and can send you a deposit via PayPal tonight if you like? Will try to arrange collection this weekend, but worst case scenario is I can't get down this weekend, but will probably be ok to come down during the week one day.

Figured you might when I saw that you'd already got a bid on it. All very well being nice & not making too much on bits, but £2-300 is a big old chunk to let go out of being nice.

What's the Polo like anyway? Also, bearing in mind you won't be getting any bits out of it & the yard that has it is messing you around, are you knocking the SE breaker car on the head now?

not got the polo yet mate,
Made a deal on it and put a Deposit down with the funds ihad, hence wanting a quick sale realy, owe the Chap £300 on the polo now ,
will be still getting the se. as ive paid for it, so will have to break it to get the money back ive paid for it,

bad month for us this since my Employer decided to go bump and do a runner with the Wages,
if it wasnt for that iwouidnt have had to part with the 406 and downgrade too a shitty little tin box to save a few quid on insurance, ah well thats the way the cookie crumbles aspose :(

Fair enough, I did say that I would put a deposit down on it tonight when I got home if you want to pull it from eBay?

Tell you what fella, PM me your number and I shall give you a ring and have a bit of banter if you'd rather it went to a fellow member!
