Just a feeler to see if you're interested before I seriously consider it:

I have a 2003 Peugeot 106 1.1 Independence in blue.

New driveshafts 10k ago.
About to get new brake shoes on the rear.
MOT until late June.
3 months tax (£74~ for 6 months).
Cheap insurance.

Was bought as transport to a new job before I relocated, I did 10k in it in 3 months and it never gave me any problems. I've now moved and it's lucky if it gets used twice a month.

Only of it covered in snow.

The more I think about it the more I probably shouldn't from a practicality stand point. Sorry, I can remove these 3 posts if you like?

Shifty noooo. Don't grease the wheels or I'll crash and burn!

I need to get the one I already have done! The fact the 106 is dull as dishwater is spurring me to finish the Mini.

(I appreciate the offer though :proud:)

The best motivator to get a car finished is always to buy another one! Its a technique i've been using for years!!!

Get this one, chuck some paint on it and then you'll have loads of breathing space to get elliot done!!!

You can never have too many cars!!
