I need to raise money by the end of January for income tax, corporation tax, bollox tax, vat etc etc.

The summer was slow.
Still hasnt picked up fully.
Plus some bad luck.
Plus unexpected legal woes.
Plus countless non-paying clients.
Plus my new big new contracts are delayed.
Plus I didnt save, so its all my fault :suicide-smiley:

The bottom line - Im stuffed for money and time. I need to sell something and sadly, it doesnt look like I have any options or alternatives that I can see. It looks like the cerb has to go cry

I never expected it would happen to me

Whats a 98 4.5 worth?
33k miles, leather, aircon, sports pipes, decat, no uprated shocks or chip though.

Sorry to hear that Rob

I'm doing what I can to keep you busy

Trouble is those yellow ones aren't worth much!

Good luck with the sale and hope things pick up to keep you in TVRs soon.

Edited to say £16k seems to be the advertised rate

Cheeers matie

Im purposely not putting it up for sale, hoping the dealer wont need one on his forecourt in the cold january months either, so I'll be forced into keeping it - Just gonna wait and see what happens. It would have to be something unexpected, but time will tell I suppose. Emotionally Ive resigned myself to selling it so im going to have to wait and see.

Meanwhile, enjoy your snotstained greener, and I'll be speaking to you soon

Thanks for the pics Eddie. Ive saved em, thankyou Good times old chum, and it does seem light years away.

But you dont think, if I do have to sell, Id be without a beast forever Course I'll be back, at some point Ive been thinking about an ultima for some time, at least there is something to "upgrade" to after the cerb, depending on how you look at it. Im indecided, not that Im in a position to pick and choose right now though!

Think £16k is a bit steep.
Budaholic's 98 4.5 is up for under £14k.

Yes, I do have my eye on it!
