I still haven’t got all the projectile vomit out of the rear screen when our little one wasn’t well a few months ago, she did feel much better after that though :rolleyes:

I somehow feel you may not have enough stickers on that rear screen?:rolleyes:

I don't suppose you remember the little flag shaped Vinyl stickers we used to get when we had been anywhere and stick them on dad's car windows ? :D

Out of interest I have just put my old car through 'We Buy Any Car'. It was a 2012 C180 Sport with 32,000 mls. I took in part exchange from the dealer sight unseen a figure of £8,000 bearing in mind it was well overdue for a service and the wheels needed re-furbing. Just got the figure back from the thieving ba@stards, £5000 !!. :eek:

I know Phillip Schofield is only doing a job but I now want to punch him on the nose !! :mad::D

Interestingly I put did the same with my Lexus RX450. Not particularly bothered about selling it, more to find out if it's worth anything in the current climate. I was pleasantly surprised that both the company you mention above and another company (Motorway?), who do a similar type of thing, were coming back with offers far exceeding my expectations.

To be honest I'm a bit tempted as the tax and insurance are both due at the end of this month but then I'll probably only replace it with something stupid which will cost a fortune to run...

More decisions. :D

36,795 for mine, they must be having a good laugh!
They seriously don't know how to value more exotic stuff - I'll hold him while you punch Andy!

Just got my new Nexens fitted to 2 of the E class wheels for £10 each by my local garage (Had a puncture last week) . If I have time tomorrow I’ll take the winters off again and swap them over .
Got the boiler man coming because the boiler packed up and leaked water everywhere . I rang vaillant to check parts availability but it’s obsolete :eek: .
I’ll probably need a new one and hope to go vaillant again .

Good money after bad...:p

New ones are significantly more efficient (environmentalists:rolleyes:) so more complex, will cost significantly more and be much less reliable - anyone would think it's a modern car...:shock:
