Post up some pics of your new one! Also definitely get some more info up about the old oneI'm sure someone would be interested! Where abouts are you from?
Hi Scott.
The old one is a "P" reg, 3 door (think they all were) TDS. Done 180,000 miles. The most reliable car I've ever owned (and I'm pushing 50, so you can imagine, I've owned a few). Shame the axle has gone as I reckon it was good for 250,000 easy. If anyone is interested, even for spares, please note the axle is proper gone - don't think it would repair. That said, if you have a replacement and have the time I'm sure it would make a decent car. It ran out of MOT and tax at end of July, although I moved it up the drive today and it started first time. Seems a shame to scrap it but time and my back won't allow me to repair it. Cambelt and water pump done last year. Recent new starter motor and radiator. Even has quarter tank of fuel ! I have tons of history, bills, Mot's etc, original bill of sale too. It's going to break our lass's heart to see it go. As you'll tell from that last line, I'm in Yorkshire. Beverley, in fact, which is between York and Hull.
Cheers for now,
Grezman.
