Seems a little odd, as we all know, if it's the other end of the country you're not going to commit to buying an untaxed car! Looks like someone we know may get it!

LOL, I like it Hugh, it's surprising how sometimes things that should attract a lot of interest are forgotten or missed, sometimes due to poor title and descriptions. Well, as I said before, should it be nearby, as there's a Newtown in Bucks, I can take a look for all who are interested.

I'm willing to bet it's the one in Wales. That's the only place in the country you'd actually refer to as 'Newtown'. I might live in (on the edge of!) Allestree, but I'd actually say Derby.

I tried a sneaky trick given his username...but sadly he's clearly ex-directory....

cheers

Yeah I just looked :) Talk about taking your time to reply... it aint going to go for much due to it being fairly difficult for most people to access. Although its not hugely far from here.. 80 miles ish.
