took long enough
After nearly 2 years and 4 other cars I've just bought my old 406 back.

Excellent Any pictures?
How much did you sell it and then buy it back for? And how many miles have been put on it in the meantime?

sold it as a non runner for £100 and just paid £850 to get her back. Its done just under 4k miles in 2 years and has had over £1000 spent on it. Will post picks tomorrow .

Sounds like a bargain, well done 
Look forward to seeing the pics. 4k miles in 2 years is nothing.

<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang
