Anyone going anywhere near Bristol in the next few days?

[wildoliver]

As above really, got a car to collect form Bristol. Being the ever keen environmentalist (I really mean tight) car sharing is ideal, if anyone is going that way happy to stick a tank of fuel in for a lift! Anythings better than British Rail!

I am in Gloucester on Monday - but need to be down for half 8 in morning only half hour from bristol if thats any good?

[wildoliver]

Might well be, Can I let you know by fri night?

Kind regards

no worries

Many thanks for the offer but the chap seems to not want to talk to me about the car, only by email, and wants a deposit on the car before collecting.........Me thinks not.

Currently looking at a pair a bit closer to home too!

Oliver, I'm going down that way Thursday 10th if that's any good.

[wildoliver]

It's ok Stu unless another car turns up that way which is unlikely then I won't need the lift, I think this car is a scam to be honest, although it's a pretty queer one.

I'm hoping a car I'm watching on ebay will be mine tonight though and that's much closer to home! And hoonable!

What car WHAT car WHAT CAR??

[wildoliver]

Not saying anything till it comes off.

And you'll never guess either.

I think I'll start a thread if it does come off but it looks like it has.

911.

[wildoliver]

Nope lol.

I will say it's another banger, but an unusual and quick one.

Oh and it's got a horse on the front.

That one at the last pub meet gave that van a run for its money.

[wildoliver]

Well just to keep you all in suspense a little longer done a deal over the phone, off to collect it tomorrow. And hopefully go to waddington and see the vulcan fly!!!

[AL...Ease]

So you're picking it up from Lincoln...

[wildoliver]

Indeed.

Me and a couple of others are probably going to the show tomorrow, fancy meeting up for a chat? (and a drool over whatever you've bought :P )

[wildoliver]

I won't say it is hugely drool worthy mate!! It's a nice car though and a step up from the Audi Bangernomic it replaces. On a side note if it performs half as well as that Audi I will be overjoyed with it, smashing car that was and turned a lovely profit!!

Meeting up sounds good, not been to Waddington for a couple of years now, must admit it is the Vulcan that is drawing me this time, there must be somewhere we can meet up for a drink and a bacon roll (and probably dry off with this lovely weather).

I'll Email you my phone number just text me when your there and I'll let you know when I tip up and we can sort something from there, I'm planning on picking the car up around 9-10 so should be in the show by 11. Of course the car could be a total pig and I'll be leaving without it!
