Ta Digger I've just had a butchers.  That smokestone 4x4 made mid estimate but I thought the silver one would have fetched a tad more.  Having said that the silver isn't IMO as good a colour as the rare smokestone colour and the description (or lack of it) didn't do it any favours.  You have to view in person to get a proper indication of condition. I liked the silver personally |

It's a week on Saturday. Only two caught my eye the Capri 2.8i with only 2,300 miles from new (lady owner) and the Focus RS with only 14 miles on the clock.  To rich for me I'm out.  |

Both pretty pointless cars to own as using them would increase the mileage making them just average type of there breed, they're more of an investment for a speculator than anything else. |

The new RS Focus is out now I believe (not seen one yet on the road  ) and they are cheaper OTR than the reserve of that green one. |

Are you going on Saturday Digger?  I can't make it to much going on with Family etc. I would like to go sometime this year if possible. May be when it's warmer if we get a Summer that is. Or even dry weather would be nice. I have the day off, BBC say the weather is dry and I have the use of her A3 on Saturday, so its odds on I'm going H and H have ditched Buxton for Donnington so all cars now under cover |

Must be right if the Beeb say it is.  A50/A52 Route is shorter. M6/A14 etc longer and won't save anytime IMO through Brum (Roadworks). Donny probably cheaper that Buxton. Easier for you anyway and makes no difference to me time wise about the same. |

They want all cars under cover |

I've got one but I prefer to use my road knowledge or follow my nose (LEAVE IT ) . I'll use a Sat Nav if I'm lost or need a diversion route I'm not familiar with. |
