Ive replaced the '6...

Post by jameslxdt »

... With this

Image

:shock:
im giving up using the car for as long as possible so i can save up to buy something better as i really hate my '6, its not comfortable as the drivers seat has collapsed, there's so many things not right with it, its damn slow, and just uses so much bloody petrol and to make matters worse the battery gave up this morning, so im on the bike untill i can afford something decent
so my '6 will be for sale soon, the mot and tax is due end of next month so once those are done it will be up for sale

Thats bad news, but i know were your coming from. If i can get away without using my pug then i wont. For a start off im lucky enough to be able to walk to work it only takes 5 mins if that, so sometimes the car sits in the same place all week till the weekend when i use it to visit my parents.

Cars are just to damn expensive to keep on the road somtimes.

Loved our old 306 D Turbo. Kept it for 6 years and was gutted watching it drive away when we sold it.
