Heh - not far off - a brief spot of google mappage says 371 miles.

Andwww.skyscanner.netisyourfriend for finding the cheapest cheapie
flights.

Sorry JackH :-)

For what?

Has he bought it, then?

No m8 it's all yours if you want it - Hide quoted text -

Ok. :-)

I get paid on Wednesday, and I can pay a deposit then if you wish, or
just pay for it in full on the Saturday when I come down to collect
it.

Well I say Saturday... I'm tempted to just get a coach down on the
Friday after work, so I can have a nice quiet drive back in the
evening, assuming you'll be about.

But anyway... will definitely have it, but *please* state any obvious,
imminent death faults now, as whilst I appreciate it's sod all for a
Mk3 GTi, it's still a right PITA travelling that far only to find an
unusable shed when you get there.

Well the car belongs to my brother, and he uses it for work every day, it
drives fine, and it pretty solid its had a new back box and water pump
recently, but other than that it just keeps going.

MOT till june or july, couple of the tyres have very slow punctures, but
nothing major, they are all legal, even if you break it its worth more than
150, he just needs shot of it,
Ok, all sounds good.

So I can put your name on it?
Aye. Definitely - I may be moving to Sarf London soon, so that looks
like an ideal old shitter for what I want from a car (1)

I'm going to come down next Friday after work - more details in the
email I'm about to send you. :-)

(1) Cheap enough to not bother me when the inevitable dents and
scratches mysteriously appear when it's left parked up outside where
I'm living all week long, but not *too* naff in terms of how they
drive (2). :-)

(2) Cue: Steve Firth extolling how he drove a shit Mk3 in the past,
ergo they're all shite. ;-) (3)

(3) See that? That's a smiley, that is

Are they any good? The mobile phone company called yesterday and offered
one for nothing if I sign up for another year.
If they're anything OS wise like the 6680 I had a while back, avoid.

Ahhhhh... maybe I'm being blonde, but no obvious email addy.

Can you ping me with an email at the address I'm posting from to here,
and I'll get back to you.

The sooner the better... would appear I can get a coach down there for
6 vs a train at 62, if I book it up today.

Go on, list all the phones that were made in 2005 that had a 5MP
camera built in.

This should be interesting.
Groan, they're up to 10mp phones now, the 5mp one is the Samsung SCH-S250

If you get one, first thing you do is get rid of the branded firmware.
