Thought you were never selling the landy!
What changed your mind?

1. Cost of fuel, not viable to use it as everyday transport
2. Want a new heating system for the house and various home improvement things
3. Prices for them have shot up recently, I got $5500 no haggling either sold within 3 days
4. Would spend 95% of it's time locked up in a garage doing nothing, kind of pointless really and just a waste of it
5. Fed up with working on cars and have moved back into my RC planes again which I enjoy so much more

Have just bought a little Fiesta for £325 as my daily transport quite like that, costs so little to run...

To be fair, from the pictures it looked worth that all day.
Lovely looking thing.

Gotta love a Fiesta for £325 though. Sounds a bargain.

Now that is bargain motoring.
