[EDGE]

i rekon we just steal his car and do it all.... kinda like over haulin but im NOT two tone-ing it on big chrome rims....

[Gator]

thats buggered it, the crank will be exploding through the block now hes worked on it

[philoldsmobile]

got a quote today on a sequential LPG injection system, not too unreasonable at all at £1700

once the alfa is punted on, i'm gonna have it done. might inspire me to keep the car a while too..

[EDGE]

wont it take you a relly long time to get your money back on that though ?

what's your annual mileage ?

[philoldsmobile]

dunno, its a lot less now i have the sanya, that should be in use by next week..

[FUBAR]

LPG???!! you sure you're going to keep the Laxus for that long?

[FUBAR]

Quoting: FUBAR

Laxus

LOL that was actually a genuine spelling mistake but its kinda funny so i'lll leave it in

[philoldsmobile]

Quoting: FUBAR

LPG???!! you sure you're going to keep the Laxus for that long?

absolutely not...... i'm now hoping it will be gone very soon, as a *potential* plan has been hatched.

its a staggeringly good car, i cant deny that, but its just *so* boring..

[philoldsmobile]

Quoting: Fieldy

Lovely, lovely motor there....Thats far more like it.....

no, really its not...... not even a little bit. its like driving a library around. very quiet and comfortable, but not exactly soul stirring..

i need to make some phone calls tomorrow.......

Pastamobile expires... now he's got the Bookmobile!!  at least you get a huge free parking space behind the library in CMK

[HardRockCamaro]

Is it worth putting LPG on it, especially with the mileage on it and the fact you're running a bike now as well?

Just a thought!?

If your gonna buy a cheap car, it's gotta be cheap-cheap like less than £500, that way it's just disposable

[Roadkill]

Quoting: F Body

Yeah, exactly.

Like the wind . . .

yup, but thats philo

[Cunning Plan]

Quoting: ianjpage

IMO you'd be daft keeping either the stang or the alfa...both have had their problems, both have had more than 1 chance.....i'd rather spend money on something i want (i.e. the V6 alfa you want) rather than spend MORE money on either of these then it eitehr goes wrong agian or you end up trading up to the v6 in the future - fix em, sell em, px the lexus job sorted.

Quoting: Roadkill

I say hold on to it until both the Alfa and Mustang are long gone . . . then start trading up.

Well said,

Sorry Phil, but why? Like others have said, unless THIS is the car you want to keep, why do it?   You just love cars dont you

[Roadkill]

And now he's selling it !

He's like a one-man soap opera !

Nah, A soap opera gives you A chance to get up and go to the toilet without missing something......

[philoldsmobile]

well, dont squeeze one out now, coz the new car will be here either today or tomorrow!



this car has just turned over 70,000 miles, is absolutely mint, 99 model, and has a full main dealer service history. oh, and an engine note to absolutely die for..

This story beats any dull soap opera, it's more like good theatre ,I'm just worried about how much the bill will be at the end of the show

Not an engine note that sounds like it's about to kill you, no ?

[HardRockCamaro]

Or a note from a dying engine?
