I'm down there on Friday night and all weekend, if thats any help?
Well, Krewkerne, 5 minutes from Bridport.
You need something checking out or collecting?

Sparks69 · 07-26-2011, 05:21 PM

I be in Taunton

Tunbridge · 07-27-2011, 01:45 AM

Sadly not as it's a much nicer part of the country than Teesside, however a lack of work for Electrical Engineers means I won't have a job.

I am however having a weeks holiday down in Poole during August. Fingers crossed that the sun comes out!

Woo......cheers guys.

Well, dont really want to put any of you out at all but if anyone was close enough, was wondering if someone would eyeball a wee 320 for me?

Im not talking test drive or owt like that, just a good lookover the general condition of a car. There seems to be plenty of shit out there and mechanically, the car should be ok (maybe famous last words) but the bodywork is something thats hard to gauge over pictures.

It would seem that I am chopping in the Clio to get another 320d as we actually cannot find anything that we (read as my wife Helen) like. So i say, go back to what you know.

Place is @ Cliff Corner, Burton Bradstock.

Is that close enough to be handy to anyone?

Its no biggie like, as I say....I dont want anyone going really out of there way. It would be just nice to have a headsup before I even consider flights etc.

Cheers

Are you going for a 57 plate with ED this time? I'm not sure I could get back into a car with a mitsu turbo being where you've been...

jinjur · 07-27-2011, 03:28 AM

No bud, finances simply do not allow it.

However, lower mileage, full BMWSH (which the last did not have) and a 2 year warranty do help stomach it.

And if it fails, lets face it......im the bucking expert now

That is actually a big part of it, I know the car inside out you see.

Hah hah, Burton Bradstock, I was planning on taking the dog to the beach there for a run! No bothers, I'll go and have a gander for you. Is it a traders?if it is, I think I might even know exactly what garage it is. pm me the details and I'll sort it out for you - I have a pretty keen eye for bodywork, so I'd like to think that if there's anything dodgy
to spot, I'll see it.

Thank you guys.
As I see it, there's no point forging 'online' friendships if you can't back it up with a 'solid' once in a while
