Title: Here to stay
Post by sector-9 on Jul 3^rd, 2006, 6:48pm

Looks like I'm lumbered with my car, which in turn means you're stuck with me! Now the ABS light has gone off and stayed off for a few days I'm going to risk keeping it (hope it won't need much for MOT); of course, in typical Scorp fashion something else has broken now to maintain the status quo... :'(

Good for you , but if you feel like pushing the old girl over a cliff and

you've £1700 to spare, check out E-Bay No. 180002745467.

6 year old and 24K miles. Ok, it's not to everyone's taste, but neither is The Scorpio. A fine big saloon with all the Gizmos.

12 hours to go, I'm keeping my eye on it.

Aren't you worried about all that pink smoke?

If I had a couple of grand to spare I'd buy a Discovery or a Rover 75!

Good luck with bidding though if you do - I had a brand new Hyundai Santa Fe as a hire car for a fortnight. Was nice to drive and had 5yr warranty, but it couldn't disguise the fact it felt cheap inside (switchgear, plastics, etc.) Looking at the ebay pics I think this might be the same, still, you don't buy a car based on how the switches feel...

Good news Darren, I saw it had disappeared from eBay and hoped you had decided to keep it :)
