Relax - i'm talking bout the fronty not The Banana, i know u all love it.

Been looking at prices for frontys and they seem to be high, Called an advert for a 2.4 estate, M reg same as mine and he got just over a grand for it!!
Off for 3 weeks and if it does not go - ill keep it
going to give it a dam good clean inside and out,
Fix the broken door handle,
Fix the lose trim and interior plastics,
and fix the steering wheel so its straight - been on the *wee wee* for 6 months
Has got a blowing exhaust on it so going to put it in for £850 and see what happens
Taxed till jan, MOT till September ( i think )

Still after a Volvo S80 if it goes for a good price - otherwise The Banana is being taxed for me to save some dough

You could do well advertising it now. People fearing a repeat of last year's severe winter weather might find a 4x4 appealing.

I would like to make it perfectly clear that I do not own a Ford Puma. I do not wish to buy a Ford Puma. I have never driven a Ford Puma (although I have driven a Ford Fiesta which is the same thing). I have never been in a Ford Puma. Wink

Ford Puma........... let me think a bout that one.......... NO

As i said before, im looking for a Volvo S80 or S60, and as RPUK said - people will be looking to buy a 4x4 if the last 2 years are anything to go by.

Buy when cheap and sell when demand is there
If i end up with 600 ill be very happy.
Just got to get the Banana started and chked over as its not run now since August

different reasons for us (can't pull a horsebox with a Puma), but the fronty is a great old bus for the job, and the latest one wev'e got ( '99 Fronty B 2.2D) does about 38 to the gallon Smile

And only cost £850 with a full Ticket, 4 months TAX and a wad of service history Smile

Yes... but it's a Ford with a pipe and comfy slippers... that has to count for something surely?

The ST24 is more Burberry baseball cap on backwards and "quality" bling from Elizabeth Duke, wicked innit?
