Oldy coming back lol

Post by pug406gtx »

Well it's happening soon, should be getting my 406 either at the weekend or sometime next week.
Silver again and a 2000 plate HDi executive saloon got it for a rediculos price of £700 :cheesy: bodywork needs a bit of TLC but not a problem, I actually nearly bought toots 3.0 v6 exec on ebay but somebody outbid me in the last seconds :evil:

Will get the pics up as soon as I pick her up and will be good to be back 8)

Oh and Welton cut out the post whoring you sure know how to go way off topic with a thread lol :roll:

Well I bought a freelander as the wife had just passed her test so thought the Scooby would be a little bit too powerful sold it to my brother less than a week later it was like this

Think it may have been a bit too powerful for him too would have been netter of letting the wife loose in it :?

Ok so it went sideways into a Halfords shop ( :P ) with enough force to destroy the front wheel and fold the rear hub, but what's that wrapped around the remains of the front alloy?

Nice one mate. A slight difference from a V6 but think of the savings in the fuel bills :cheesy:

Cheers mate not sure on leaving it standard but it will certainly be more subtle lol.
Would have preffered the V6 but with missing Toots and at the price I was offered the HDi I would have been silly to knock it back :wink:

Oh christ I remember now. Yours was the one with that hideous great wing stuck on the back wasn't it? :P

I should really shut up considering how hard I'm pondering a spoiler on the back of my saloon (albeit the oem one). Wonder how it'll affect economy and (very) high speed stability though...
