Sorry Ted, bout the topic.

Got letter from the council to remove an old car from outside of my mates house (Alarm Packed up) so if anyone wants the car let me know.. its parked up in wellingborough.

6 months MOT left.

if no one wants it its gonna be crushed..

Cheers Steve

Get it to BTaP... drain all the coolant or oil out of it... £1 to enter - "guess how long it'll last till it blows up" - all money goes to charity!

Sad music plays in background

Wouldn't you Like the car to go to Basingstoke College Of Technology, to help teenagers get the education they deserve, you never know, they amy be servicing your car in a couple of years! oh the thought of it!

Hang on... we can use it for this Extreme Tailgating experiment.. !

Graham - my remark was a bit flipant... I mean who is going to remove the damn thing after it's blown up?

More importantly - you got in there first, and IMHO it's "first come, first served".

Hope you guys can sort something out!

[GrahamJay]

Tell ya what, if I get it sorted with the college and Ted give's me a section of the site I will do a kind of diary, It'll be the PistonHeads car, we hope to be doing some kind of racing with it! Lets see what happens!

I could come and pick the car up as my sister lives in Waterbeach near cambridge so it's not that far!

Sounds like a worthy cause...

Slightly better than the 'worthy cause' I found for a quarter decent Scirocco (a brand new Scirocco was only half decent to begin with) I just got rid of...

it went to the local Fire Service for them to 'practice' on

I had tried giving it away before that, but didn't dare mention it on here

Edited for more appropriate smileys

Hi Graham

The car drives fine (1 previous owners) as far as i know i had it for a project but a friend ended up having it as a run about. until the alarm went AWOL.

Moving house so cant do the project i wanted, so if you wanna come and get it sometime on wednesday or thursday would be great. otherwise its being towed away on friday Bloody council.

Cheers

Steve

[GrahamJay]

Yes i'll have the car! I'll see if I can get some time off college tomorrow and come pick it up in the evening!

If you email me with your address I'll get some directions!

Cheers

Graham

The car is perfectly fine just cosmetics are a bit naff but the alarm is f**ked dont know how to bypass to get the car started so either you will have to get it towed or fixed some other way

Can you not diconnect the wires??

[GrahamJay]

Just out of interest does your mate have all the registration documents et al?!?!?!

[stc_bennett]

Graham

I have all the registration docs plus my recipt for when i brought the car a few months back.

6 months MOT
V5

you can disconnect the wires i think but i dont kow which ones to disconnect. i brought it for my project locost project as i wanted the engine and instruments but we are moving and have no garage for the car..

if you want i can give you the webspace or do an online diary for you if you want..

Cheers Steve

[GrahamJay]

Excellent!

I'm just trying to think about this alarm polava (sp.) if it's a case of just disconnecting the wires from the speaker then it should be an easy enough job!

What have you tried??

[GrahamJay]

Is it just an alarm or is it an imobiliser too!?!

[CB-Dave]

Graham, check your PM's...

[GrahamJay]

Cheers Dave, got that, if it's not imobilised it'll be a hell of a lot easier to sort out!

if it is, some head scratching will be done!

Cheers
