I was hoping he'd give me a third reason but Rob beat me to it Laughing to be honest 1 reason would have been enough for Rob Wink

Just had a look on the DVLA site and the kid who bought my S has taxed it for 12 months so thats a good sign, and it was as about the same condition as yours when I started on it Smile

ThumbsUp £225 for the S thanks to a tip off from Rob, and I think it was £250 for the one before that, but they were both auto's so they're always cheaper

Our cars are cheep enough to personalise and still be fun. I love to see individual cars be they Jons, Fils, or yours. At shows I much prefer them to concourse.
I'd only sell if I wanted to do a new project...

It's hard to do it that way without facilities like Jon And Fil, it gets expensive too. I look forward to progress reports.

Are you going for yellow caliper covers? I'm off to Thailand at Xmas and if we can get them to be delivered to my Thai address we could save £££££

I did love the GT feel of running an Auto, but I have to say that the manual is so much more fun, I'd kind of forgotten how much fun til I bought the '44, been enjoying it so much that I now need to sort out the knocking from the o/s front Laughing
Still think that Mrs Mav hit something putting it sideways on the way to the stables the other week when I wasn't in the car but as I wasn't there and value the peace & quiet I'm saying nowt Cant bring myself to part with it ! - Page 2 45783

Sorry I really shouldn't mock the afflicted, but the guys over the pond on the 924.org site really were being suckered in by the guy! lol

Wouldn't mind but I even tried to for warn them about that kid Laughing

Looks like he's taking a few of the guys at TIPEC for a ride as well right now as well.

And that is a great looking Purple 924 you've got there ThumbsUp Razz
