hehe As the title really. I bid on this last night when I was drunk, cant retract my bid within last 12 hours. So, if I win this landy will i regret it, will I find a rust bucket or a peach? biggrin

I won't reveal what i've bid in case anyone fancies sneaking one in! I really get annoyed with myself when I bid without seeing cars!

At least the colour hides some of the rust!

Don't say stuff like that. It says "chaise good" - so I reckon it's a good 'un. hehe

As far as I can see, there wasn't a bid places last night?

Might just be me being stupid.

Are you current high bidder?

It's like flipping a coin. It will either go craptastic or extremely well. You takes your choices, chap.

I won't, not my style. I'll stand by my bid, been on the look out for a disco since I had an off road day last month. The only bit that worries me is bidding unseen - utter madness and makes me a total twonk.

hehe - I am the current high bidder, I put the bid in last night with some software (delayed) and only realised when I got my "email notification" after bid went in at lunch today. Must have thought - "I can bid then retract in morning". smile

Dont forget your dust-pan and brush to collect the rust when you stop.

Just don't put anything too heavy on the floor of the boot.

That'll be fine. Probably. Maybe.

Sold a 320000 miler last year for £500 with no MOT and I declared that the boot floor was knackered, ABS fault and worn synchros. It did look tidy though.
