No I don,t think I will be selling it. I am having a lot done to it. Cam belt, oil change,Antiroll brackets/bushes,oil filter,other belts,towbar fitted speedo changed etc etc. I have had radio done,new aerial put in,lights checked and parking pole light repaired and odds and sods. Need a new reversing mirror,but very expensive for what it is.
Underneath is lovely so the mechanic says, so might have waxoil.
It does really good MPG.
I think it will be great when finished. Love it!
We are attending the national bongo do in June, but not sure were not too old for it! Unsure of what to expect.
thanks Guys

Hello Old jimmy, I'm over in Buckingham so will keep a look out for you, what colour is yours?

I do a bit of work over that way, so if you see an idiot in a red inca van waving at you, it probably isn't road rage... just a fellow bongolier :shock:

as for the age thing, I think the thing that makes this forum as good as it is, is the diversity, so I won't worry.... and I'm quite young :? but with 2 young kids, I feel reeeeaaallly old :lol:

Hi John,
The car is black/silver, Ill watch out for you. Your not old just because you have children or grandchildren. But when you have great grandchildren, Then you feel old !
I am going to enjoy the experience anyway, even though my family think it is funny (ha ha!) that we are going to a Bongo Bash.
