Hi Guys and Girls,

As you will no the Camaro and myself are off the road till 2nd week of Feb....

However I am going to need to get around for work etc in January. I am putting out the feelers if any of you know of anybody that would like to make a bit of cash for a few weeks after Xmas. They will need a car and licence and I will obviously pay all fuel bills and leave them with a full tank at the end of each week as well as £50 a day cash in hand. I will need someone Tues/Wed/Thurs from about 12pm to 9pm (sometimes earlier).

Regards

Phil

Are we gonna queue to see who's gonna cost him the most in fuel bills? Mine is struggling to get above 13mpg on mixed driving. That might be an expensive month if your paying fuel (Vpower) and £50 a day. lol.

My sister has just returned from Australia, she's been out there for 9 months and has just returned. No job yet, and no cash so thought it might be a way of her getting a few ££ in her pocket. Not sure if she'll be up to it though. She has a Hyundai Coupe so it's not the biggest inside!

Lol. I've always said that people who might struggle to run a Ford Focus should consider down sizing to something like a Gallardo.

Out of interest, what are you getting mpg wise?
