Thank you kind sir

Ive been driving a VW Polo since selling the 740 as I had to cover 100+ miles daily intill recently and I needed something more economical. Ive now returned to my old job which is a mere 30 miles round trip so can consider something more to my taste.

My saw my brother in law this morning who drove over in the V40 hes bought via ebay not long ago. An outstanding car for £700. The only fault I could find was a slight crease just above the offside wheelarch - hardly noticeable. This got me thinking so I have a quick look at Autotrader and Ebay this evening and thought that I would log on here to look at the sales section. Imagine my suprise when the first thing that popped up was the post about BAY!

Cheers
Ian

As Brian mentioned above ..... good to hear from you Ian , been a long time .
Thanks Mike

Ive just done a search in the completed listings section of ebay for TGN. Cant find it. Perhaps its longer ago than I thought.

According to the listing it had been converted back to combined petrol/LPG with a new main petrol tank fitted. The suspension has been slightly lowered and Virgos fitted. It looked immaculate. I sold it to a chap from the NE and it seems as though it had remained in the area going though another couple of owners.

Cheers
Ian

Withdrawn from sale here.

If a Moderator could close the thread, that would be good

Many thanks

So, three years later and with the special lowered suspension removed and mileage increased it is still worth the same money?

Must check my shares cause they are not doing as well!
