I put a deposit on a flat that has a reasonable amount of parking, therefore I’m keeping the compact! It’s insured as of next Monday the only issue is it looks like this...

Guna do the two little patches of welding and bolt it back together. Not guna paint the new panels yet because honestly I dont care that much, I just want to drive it and get it mechanically excellent. Shes a good runner as is so a nice start out for a project. I see engine swap in its future.

Ye’, up this neck of the woods there aren’t the options that are available further south.

I hope it works out for you and you settle in peacefully.

You’ll have to e-mail me the address to send a house warming present to.

Yeah I applied for a lot up here and had a couple interviews close to York but the opportunities in the south are much better. Thanks man thats really kind of you, I’ll let you know when I get the keys in August.

I knew Britain’s economy was in trouble, but now people have to put down deposits on flats ? Are they anticipating cuts to road maintenance?

Cool man. Is the flat furnished with white goods or fully furnished?

One of the guys in our car club here in the States swapped in a M52 6cyl motor. The thing’s damn quick now.

I would love to do that. The compact is prone to lift off oversteer which means hilarity when you add power.

Comes with an oven and washing machine but nothing else. Got it for an okay price for the area though so worth buying furniture.

It spins the tires in 1,2, and third gear. It’s hilarious to drive
