ST185 making way for...wait for it....a transit!!!
« on: May 08, 2009, 06:36:09 pm »
I will now be selling my crate to fund a cheap transit and the purchase of my carpet fitting tools  :(

I have been going through a spell of having work and not having work and I cant stomach it anymore.  Im a trained carpet fitter so thought, hold on, im being a kn*b.  I have been offered a start with a local carpet firm, full-time, and im going for it.  So the crate is going asap to fund it.

The good news is, i should be earning plenty enough to save up to buy the CS ive always been wanting, and ill be careful to buy the best one I can find.

it has an easy life really, own private long term parking in a very big garage, that also happens to be a tuners, never has to go anywhere, must be dirt cheap on fuel and tyres.

In all fairness, that's not really the cars fault. I thought I was bad until I met Paul, who REALLY will buy anything if its shiny.

You need to use a mitsi legnum for a week, I couldnt believe the sheer amount of fuel it consumes.  Had mine for 2 years and although they are immense fun, they cost absolute fortunes to run!

If you like shiny things, my missus has a nice shiny bullet shaped thing   8) 8) 8)
