Default Got one!

I have bought a V8

This is the right time of year to buy a bargain
I spent a month or so evaluating current dealer stocks and doing some really hard bargaining.

I Turned down a ZTT estate in Chester although with TLC and some paintwork repairs it would have been fine and with hindsight perhaps I should have bought it!

I looked at a really odd one in Grimsby which had started life as a Green MK1 car and is now a Black MK2 even so I would have bought it if they had accepted my very low offer

Then last weekend one popped up on Ebay A saloon which I bought at around trade plus £100 it was cheap enough that I can keep my ZTT as well if I want to.

More pictures to follow once I have cleaned it up a bit

July last year it has done 2899 miles now it has done 40,000 so it is well run in now!

Previous owner was a globe trotting Dentist the fuel bill he has paid over the last year must be frightening I will only be doing about 5000 a year in it myself if that!

I have not decided on a name yet maybe "Boris"
