Purchase Imminent - 4.0 Chim
Discussion
Hi All,
Spent a while lurking and soaking up all the excellent info on here (and the encouragement to get stuck in and buy one). I've taken a lot of inspiration from the 8K Chim thread and am going a similar route i.e. buy it then spend on getting it right.
Obviously I have only seen a poor advert but a long chat with the owner and my inherent immaturity means it's almost a done deal.
Off work next week so hugely excited about the train trip to Nottingham and really really hoping I will be driving home. I have no idea what I'm looking at (and I've read all the lists of things to check) but if it goes and stops, I'm sold.
It's had outriggers done, suspension refresh and upgraded leads etc. What could possibly go wrong???
Got a long drive back to Ashtead so will be taking the AA paperwork and a fully charged phone.
Pic's to follow, really excited to experience some of the stuff you lot have been raving about.

Lovely image you portray!
Seller has advised I go to Long Eaton (for 1pm) and has offered to collect me from there. Unless Long Eaton's on your way, shall we meet at the seller's place in Stapleford?
If you were to relax on Monday night with a glass of something, what would it be?
I'll PM you my number right away

Just amazing.
Wife heard the car before she saw it.
Horrendous traffic but the car coped beautifully. I will be removing that second spring from the accelerator as suggested.
Noticed a brilliant quirk on the way home, headlights (side lights) and dashboard lights come on when the brakes are applied. Dashboard switch makes no difference.

Well aware of my obligations and will be using all 24 of those hours!
Daughter's birthday tomorrow but I'm off work so should be doable.
And you're right, Qbee is a real gent and asked some great questions.
This community really is amazing, I have my work cut out in finding a way to make my own contribution

Ged, I've got a cracked and delaminated dashboard with an intermittent radio. I can live with the dashboard condition but your head unit is the best I've seen after a week of looking. Where did you pick it up from? Haven't got the model number to hand but that's the only on I want!
I'll probably end up with a new pioneer fruit machine....
