Post by: Kate on 01 March 2016, 19:01:29
Hi all.

I'm looking for a very cheap Omega estate. I mean very cheap.

Preferably free. ;D

I'm back in Cornwall and need a miggy for this project I'm doing.

Hope you are all keeping well. :y

Any estate would do as long as it moves. I'd rather avoid buying from anywhere else other than the oof.

I was joking about it being free!! ;D

Yes it's mad how many times I've moved. I suppose I am a bit mad really. I read this book about minimalism as I was having a clear out at the time and it said that experiences are much more important than possessions. Since then I own a lot less stuff but crave new experiences. Nice to hear from you too. :y

Harris K Thingy is selling an Estate, ad in sales plus numerous other refs to it in other posts, price is dropping by the hour - if you hang on long enough it may be cheap enough or even free :o.  He has to sell it as his mother said so!! ???

Engine and gear box good, alloys and tyres scruffy cos I have nicked the good ones for the other car , never let me down, been stood for a few weeks now but its got to go so yours if you want it :)

well in 2014  the insurers set a value of £10 on our 1997. Last year it was £110, hopefully in 5 years time a few more 1's can  be added

Nah. He just laid her across the bonnet and had his way with her before she left. They do that kind of thing in Wales.
God help the poor girl if she'd have been picking it up in Lincolnshire. She'd still be there.  ;D

I've always got round that by not having a drive and just parked my cars in the street. Which means the neighbours get to have a free moan too ;D
