sold but not forgotten

[jonicox]

So. After a great 18 months my FL disappeared off to Fontain, via Tootle (given Bit_evi's experience, I'm glad I did!)

Anyway, it is on their website straight away and the next owner will be a lucky one. Fontain were going to put a new set of tyres on, but if you were looking, you might want to haggle about pads as it is on the original set.

What prompted the sale if you don't mind me asking? What's next?

[jonicox]

Sale is just that I need to make use of the money for other things in the next 12 months (house refurb). I have a W124 Mercedes that I have never been able to bring myself to get rid of that I will use as a daily drive, but I have gone the other direction for future car and have put a deposit down on an Alpine A110.

Alpine - good for you. I hope it is going to be excellent. I understand the RHD cars have a bit of a delay on them, its going to be a big build up to arrival.

W124 - sensible car... built from single piece of granite.

A single piece of granite, that needs maintaining . Got to love it though. 3 litre straight six with the sportline suspension and steering (all relative of course!) that you can carry a ton of wood in the back of.
