Title: My Day Out
Post by: Timbuk on 23 June 2007, 19:19:27
I'm in the mood for a few projects so last week i picked up a 1997 ' R ' 2.5 CDX saloon in grey with a few problems, that one is now sorted and in the hands of a fellow member of this forum :y

Today i picked up this one, 1998 ' S ' 2.5 CDX in silver, 80,000 miles with leather, again with a few problems, nothing that can't be sorted , had to do a few miles ( 300 round trip  :-/ nowhere near as many as Markie is doing today though  :o)for this one but i think it was worth it, hired a trailer this morning and off i went, got back about 5, guess what i'm doing tomorrow ::) got to keep them on the road :y

Sell them on for more than £155 and I'm sure someone round here as a cheap set to replace them with.
