Soz again. I am in and out like no-body's business. A combination of no broadband, all sorts of personal issues as well as my daughter and myself being really quite ill of late has ment no time what so ever for chatting and car things.
The biggest thing on my mind as far as cars are concerned has been the VED. Since finding that out I have been mildly fuming.I can probably just about stretch to it but dammit I refuse to hand over £400 of my hard earned to this useless government. It was agreed by me and my wife to sell the Scirocco (gone
), sell the MG and buy a pre 2001 car that will take a baby seat in the back but be whatever I wanted.
So without much success but faith that it would sell once it appeared in the auto-trader I said sod it and after being arsed about on other deals in a fit of madness splashed out 2K on this:
Yep tis a cosworth. However since buying it more problems have come to light. Mainly niggly faults but poor idling and very rich running plus....... i don't seem to jell with it. The other problem is, I put the MK2 grill back on the car........ washed it and god damn back in love with it. That coupled together with me having to drive my daughter around for hours in dreadful weather as it was the only way she would sleep leaves me loving my MG even more.
Now I have the problem of do I sell the merc (if I can), put the money into the MG, paying the government their blood money or keep the faith that the MG will sell and make a really nice Merc that will cost less (I hope) in the long run.
Stupid to buy the merc before the MG sold and I have dug my own grave but I am severely out of pocket and 1 of them needs to go. Weird that I got no response to the MG considering it was up for £2995 with extras and only 32000 on the clock.
Oh well good to see you all again, you are so much easier going than a certain merc forum.
