Default Do you live near Boston Lincolnshire?

Are you an '8 nerd like me?
Do you love the smell of burning final drive oil in the morning?
Can you spot expensive problems?
Well maybe you could spare some time to sniff round this car http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1334089.htm

Petrol money and public genuflection at the next owners meet if you can spare the time.

It looks pretty nice mate.

If i am not mistaken, it also has the blinds and rear electric heated seats...

Good luck and hope it's what you're looking for

For the first time I have actually managed to be a bit of a git bargaining over the phone so They are prepared to sell at a reasonable price. Talking to insurance companies has de humanised me . Being able to quote accurate trade prices, model history, service requirements, known foibles and offer hard cash helps.

I would feel guilty but if I'm going to be shafted then I'm sharing the joy.
