Dat's de one. Typical of Rover to drop something good. The Pug diesels
are just as good, but I suppose there was deal struck.

**** my old boots! Have you seen what they're fetching these days?
Just took a quick looksee on autotrader and FFS
1978 S reg - £2,150
1983 A reg - £4,800

**** that... I'm not adding one of those to my collection of SOCs (which
currently stands at just one VW Golf <g>).

 

It's a 1993 (phew, just in) 1.6LXi, as everybody else seems to have year and
engine size in their.

Cheers.

Mindless sheep.

**** I can't. My first 3 cars each cost less than 75 quid.

 

This is a bike newsgroup.

A bit of car banter is fine, but a sig list is not really in the spirit.

 

Thrilling.

 

It's not about being miserable, it's about being appropriate. Can't you
have this list in uk.rec.cars ?

Agreed. Whilst I am obviously contributing to the thread, I won't be
acknowledging the number I have been awarded in my .sig. I don't think
it's appropriate for a bike ng.

Hasn't it already been decided that just about everything is appropriate
to UKRM? - if you're going to get picky about this, then why not about
all the other off-topic stuff, then?

IMHO, however, it is appropriate, as the decision to have a SOC is often
influenced by the decision to spend our spare cash on bikes and related
items.

 

They'd be unusual. It's perfectly possible to pick up a legal and
roadworthy snotter for much, much less.

Because a car is specifically not a motorbike. Very much not.

Bollocks. You're just justifying this idiotic list. You're like Des -
posting a load of bollocks no-one cares about in a pathetic bid for
attention.

 

90-odd percent of traffic on UKRM is a load of bollocks no-one cares
about - which is what makes UKRM what it is.

If you don't like it, why not just kill this thread?

 

You can pay what you want for one - some ex-Owners Club ones have had a
lot done to them and the prices reflect this. There are plenty around
which have been through a few hands and deteriorated a bit but are still
sound enough (and cheap).

That didn't answer the question. Still waiting for the answer please, or
don't you have one?

Utter bollocks. Maybe you can't afford both - others can. That doesn't
justify your list.

 

Erm, you've met porl right?
