Nothing to do with me ... I am tempted, but just cant have another at the moment.

Thought someone might want to know about it!

Indeed it is , sadly 371 miles from me. Had I been ooop North I think I'd have tried to bag it :)

There must be someone up there who will grab that quickly for parts ?

Your kidding. It has no mot & no fail list. 150K miles without a proper service history. I bet the new rear tyres are about all thats salvageable. If it drives I'll bear my arse on the town hall steps. It's also metallic Gold. Long may it rest in peace. :)

I really wish I had the time to go round and get a video of me driving it :lol:

This is why I need you J.J. I sat for an hour, thinking about buying it. You're cheeper than therapy. I'm going to try and get at least one 944 on the road before I buy another.
