When it rains it pours

Post by Daniel2019 »

So after getting a free barina..

My uncle is now getting rid of a ute apparently, and doesnt want anything for it if I grab it off him.

This will bring the total to a GPX, a (soon to be) Mivec GR Sport, a Barina, and whatever ute this is..

Pop has also been in talks with getting an old ford (late 80s) with like 40,000km on it which has been garaged for years..

Plus theres this van next door which is yet to be handed over.

Between 3 people that can drive, we may have FTO, FTO, Altise, Sportivo, Barina, Ute, Van, Ford Laser.

:facepalm2:

Someone buy some of them please.

Silver GPX for $3,000!

Not sure yet. Havent made progress on the van yet. No signs of getting the ball rolling anytime soon. Also not sure about the ford. The ute isnt rego'd and needs work apparently. I havent seen it yet. Guessing its manual. Van is manual, ute is manual, ford is auto.

Fkn cars.

Well im not really fussed too much on condition - i can fix whatever up which will probably bring the car down to a better looking price tag for me.
Let us know when you do decide to let an auto go - hopefully we havent spotted something else :)

GPX for 3k!

Will do. Only auto would be the ford and we would probably keep that because its from a little old lady across the road and it wouldnt be right for us to just buy and sell as it was her late husbands and its been covered up for the past few years.

Unless it will be the barina but again, would be reluctant to sell that as it was given to me.

Again - fkn cars.. :facepalm2:

Dan I have no idea mate. I'll see if I can get around to his over the next few days to have a look.

Just FYI it's unregistered and he said "needs work". Im assuming its an old work ute of his but again, not sure. Will let you know when I find out.
