The Scorpio I looked at a the Auction - pretty dismal - went for GBP 2100 pounds

One at the auction - last week - 45,000 R Plate 2.3 ULTIMA - yippee

When I started it - Engine was rough - no MOT
Paintwork - uneven - had a lot of work

To top it all whist engine was running - I was looking under the bonnet - car locked itself - after pneumatic bag was used to pry open door - no locks were working - sun roof problem - steering pump leaking etc etc etc

It went for GBP 2100 - I did not even bother to bid

Now on the forecourt local garage GBP 3965

The interior / exterior etc was not as good as the one I originally owned

Someone is trying to make a tidy profit

Hi Nick,
run it through...

http://tinyurl.com/
Then come back in and modify the post with the new url and it will come back inside most people's screens (800 x 600)
I use 1280 x 1024 so most times it doesn't affect me much..

I didn't realise there were "how to" instructions on the main site. I thought it was an exclusive Cry

Anyway Craig... if you still want instructions put in my kind of english, give me a shout.

I'm thinking I may bid on the blue one myself yet, but I believe it is an R or S reg rather than a T plate.
