Thanks for letting me know - Off to Yorkshire tomorrow & the following weekend, longish trips don't bother me...

I wouldn't disagree - now that my car is not working properly again :twisted: I called his mobile earlier, and the answerphone message was hardly cheery... Anyway, I may have to brave the experience to have a look, as my other half's not stopped talking about Volvos since rust forced me to get rid o...

I sent an email to the guy last night offering to make an offer (which I now don't need to do as my car is working again :D ), and his response was: My experience of selling on EBAY is that it is full of Wallies! You have my mobile and are welcome to inspect this great car which I am happy to keep. ...

1) I'm near Windsor in Berkshire. SL4. 2) Photos as before. 3) Garage who had car quoted £800 (!!!!), but this car needs less welding than my last one, and I had a quote via a different garage for £200 on that. Can't really take the car anywhere to be looked at, due to the suspension strut, and the ...

Hello all. As you may know, I had a problem with my 360 at the end of last year, and I've now decided that I need to move her on. I got her at the end of September, had her serviced & then drove about 2000 miles on holiday & to visit my dad in hospital in Yorkshire & the car worked a treat (bearing ...

That's told me!

I'm becoming interested in BXs (don't tell anyone ). Roughly how much are you looking to get got your cars, Carl?

By the way, Merry Xmas and all that!

Is your red car a GTi too, Carl?

Good morning all. Won't be a moment, just got something to say: As you guys might know from my recent posts, I've been having car trouble for the last couple of weeks. My original reason for getting a 300-series was to tow the caravan I was given earlier in the year. Once I bought my 340, I stumbled...

SOLD!!!

No tax or MOT, I'm afraid. Needs some welding underneath. Engine seems a little strange - it had been sitting for a few months when I got it, but got me 200 miles home okay, although the exhaust is blowing & the engine cuts out after motorway driving. Needs looking at, but I didn't bother because it...

**UPDATE** - the car's got to go. I've been told to move it, or else... Don't know how long I've got, but I need to get rid. Free now, if anyone's interested - I'm sure there are parts on this car which would be useful to people - I've had a few bits off myself (parcel shelf, boot carpet etc). Benne...

Didn't check on here last night, so might be too late...

Caravan needs to go down to Portsmouth from Windsor area. Don't worry if you've already set off, but let me know on 0787 675 7327 if not maybe??

Thanks,

Andrew

I've got a mobile mechanic friend-of-a-friend coming round to have a look on Sunday. He normally welds bin trucks, so should be strong enough!! Will update when I have information from him.

Thanks for the offer, pettaw. I'm going to see if I can organise anything sooner, because their last day in the house is the 9th, so I'd rather get the caravan out of their way & off their list before then, but I'll come back to you.

Andrew

Thanks Dai!! Brought the car back from the garage last night - we both really like the ol' girl, so looking to get the work done. Will update you on the rust situation later on - only 3 mentions on the fail form - both sides withing 30cm of body mountings of the rear, plus another mention at the rea...
