Best smoker barges 1-5 large [Vol 10]
Discussion
Firstly apologies, this is well over thread budget, but I thought it would be appreciated here.
A rather clean looking, low mile, E32 750il in red, I can't imagine it was a colour chosen by many!

1st Year Barge update!!
Last year in June I bought a Mercedes W220 S350L for the princly sum of £4,100 following a year in a company car that I hated (and was costing me a fortune!!), 12,000 Miles later and the results are in:
MOT £54
TAX £290
Insurance £320
Extra Fuel Cost (against a 40MPG Company Car) £945
Crank Angle Sensor £120
Duo Valve (Heating) £170
Tyres (2 rears @ 93,000 Miles) £240
Wheel weld *1 & Refurb *4 £350
Wiper Blades £20
RTV Sealant for Valve Cover £20
Exhaust welding £60
Lower Arm (MOT) £95
All Up = £2,684
Ignore Fuel/MOT/TAX/Insurance = £1,075
For comparison purposes my Company car cost me £7,440 the previous year, this one has cost £6,784 (including purchase price) and I now have a "free" car !!

That's textbook barging, no wonder you are Happy Jim.
Wish I could do it without spending silly amounts of money!
It was definitely a bit of a punt at the beginning, but it's waftastically comfortable. Fortunately I can turn a spanner and it's all been DIYable so far - loving it currently :-)Wish I could do it without spending silly amounts of money!

Ok this Volvo T5 has been modified but it still looks in very good condition with a great service record.
£3,999 is pushing it but it should be trouble free motoring.
Sorry for the screen shot only picture. If people prefer just the link I can do that from now on. Tried everything to get a non screenshot of the car but it just comes up with a blank box. Bl**** Chromebook

XJ6/XJS are the only barges I can think of that can carry off DKR.

For the above example, this is what you need to be adding to your post.£3,999 is pushing it but it should be trouble free motoring.

You supply the pic tags and the picture url you have to find within the advert.
On a standard everyday PC and using chrome as the browser you can get the image url by clicking the picture in the ebay listing so it appears magnified to fill the browser window. Then right click the picture and select "Copy image address". This can then be pasted between the pic tags.

The part you need to crack is finding the image's url.

Thank you for this but as you can see the post above this all I get is a small blank box. A few on here have given me tips but still it will not post the picture.
Driving me insane
To uplink the photo like I have above, you must first double click on it to open the image full screen.
Then right click on it and select properties.
You'll see the URL of the image there, highlight it, right click and copy
within the PH post box, right click and paste
Then simply put [img] before the URL link and [/img] after it
Job done

I think you've put the URL of the page in the pic and not the image
This.Open the gallery in the browser, right-click on the image, then click "Copy image address" (or similar).

This is a link directly to the image, which needs to go between [img ] [/img ] tags for the forum to pick them up.
