buying back your old car
I've bought back my old y reg vectra 2.2 sri. Back in 2001 I payed £16k for it. This time round I payed £140 for it . I'm going to be breaking it for spairs . It has a few mods on it that should sell on easy.
This is the first time I've bought back an old car of mine.

Am I a light sleeper or a heavy sleeper? Well that depends on how much I've had to drink...

Re: buying back your old car
The car was going to the scrap yard to get crushed. They were going to pay £140 for it. So i said ill pay £140 too and take it away now. I should get my money back from just the wheels and tyres alone. It's got low miles on it about 80k I think.

Re: buying back your old car
The engine is the all alloy 2.2 16v one. Can't remember the code.
The wheels are 17" 5 spokes. I'll have to get a pic or 2 up of the car.
Edit.... on page 23 of my work in progress there is a pic of the car from a few years ago.
