Well peeps, she's gone.....
« on: 16 October 2006, 20:09:18 »
Yes i'm afraid to say the MV6 has left my ownership  :'(

I sold her today for £900, which sounds like tuppence but in reality i think i did fairly well. If i had put her on fleebay i imagine i would have only got about £600-£700 for her....

So on to pastures new for me, but i'll still be around and try to help people out when they've got problems  :)

Day off work for me tomorrow and a day of car shopping! Should be interesting  :-/

PS, the bloody EM light flickered on a couple of times today and that was a contributing factor in making me decide i've had enough of fixing her!  ;D

Sad to hear it's gone, but glad you'll stick around.
By the way; did you pass on this web site to the new owner?  :y

Yes i passed on the website  :y lol

The thing i thought was funny was the guy he bought along to 'examine' the omega was a mechanic (wearing his overalls!) and thought he knew his stuff.....He didn't even look at the bloody oil!!! He was too busy testing the windscreen wipers and lights!  ;D He obviously knew franky break all lol

No the mr2 didn't happen, the last i heard was that it was getting hotter than it should and the guy 'didn't want to sell me a shitter' so it didn't happen. Shame really because it did look nice.

I'm looking at a bug eye shape Celica GT tomorrow, sounds quite good and he's only asking £1300. It has done 130K but it's just had a new clutch, not sure if the head gaskets ever been done though, i'll have to ask.

Thought it'd be good to stick around, share my wealth of knowledge  ;D Who knows anyway, i might end up with another one of the bloody things somewhere down the line!
