Oh..and i dont expect to see any more daft messeges either coming through ebay.. ahem... naming no names... :P

Now now boys.. the number i put on the add is an old one, i have 2 phones yer know. :P So far, no odd calls, no rude texts ( shame) just daft questions. Oh and some numpty bid on the wheel nut.LOL. You know who you are :D Im going to look at a car this eve in the west midlands, its another estima, and pretty cheap. comes with mot till feb, tax till jan.That will do me for now. I have to say, with the parts that have sold from my car.. its enough to get the cambelt changed on the next one! Quite a little money machine really. I am getting her towed to a yard later on today where i can finish stripping parts off her, im not going daft and taking everything off her though. just going to spend 2 days foing it. then scraping her.If i get her weighed in, should get another 150 quid for the carcass. It is a shame this has happened, as looking at other estimas around here.. some are just rust buckets on wheels where mine has mint body work. One im going to look at is not in mint condition body work wise hence low price.. but it will get me mobile untill i can get another better car. well..at least Now you all know how to get hold of me.LOL By the way..yesterday.. i went a whole day with no nicotine patch on..and the kids are still alive!!.woohoo!!

welcome back. still mumof4.. i havent lost any yet.lol yeah.. ive been well and truely mangled by the mill and it wont let me out.

somehow, ive managed to place an add on ebay.. lol.. didnt think id be able to with no paypal account and an old experied credit card on file.oops! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...=STRK:MESELX:IT

i need a diesel hun, otherwise it looks ok. i drive 200 miles plus a week when they at school. If you see anything else round your way, lemmee know.

i have to be honest and say that the toyota has one thing over the galaxy. A boot. But i am looking at galaxys aswell.

gregers you barsteward. LOL. Big J.. ive already gone down that route, 365 quid just for the head, then the added cost of everything else needed, like head gasket set.. 50 quid, belt..20 quid..tensioner.. 40 quid.. water pump.. head bolts.. then labour cost for garage to put it all on as timing is crucial... all amounts to nearly 800. not worth it. Big K.. thank you kind sir i do like the head i have now.. and as for being fat.. well.... ive jumped a dress size since quitting.. but now i got no car, im loseing it by walking everywhere.LOL. cyborg.. thank you for the virtual cuddle.. appreciated :rolleyes: Nope, didnt page down the link..just saw 2.4 and thought nope. i just cant justify spending nearly 800 quid on repairing her when she only cost me just over 1k.

you have no idea how hard this has been. Ive had to contend with my daughter in and out of hospital, my own operations, the car going tits up, everyman and his dog assessing our home life to see what help i need as im so stressed out, and i still have not had a fag since the 25th of June. I have been so damn close many times to starting again. At one point i was sat with a pack of unopened fags just sat crying because i wanted one and i was battling with myself. I ended up throwing them away, still unopened. And right now i really could do with one, but it is an ongoing internal battle to not light a fag. I have no choice to stop.. it has to be done for my health.

i have actually.LOL. damn this no smoking lark..

Mines a 2.2 ... as stated in my sig. :( Im breaking her lads, if you know of anyone that might need any parts..leemmeeee know. Kev... lifes a bitch at the mo..On a bit of a downward spiral this evening. No any one reason..just a combination of things. Plus i see my consultant again tomorrow.. my post op appointment where pain management for the rest of my life will be discussed.. and if any.. other options. My cupboard is like a pharmacy stock room full with pain medication. morphine, oramorph, tramadol, dihydracodeine (orrible stuff.. ) various anti depressents to combat my pmt which i dont take as the side effects are awfull.. the pill to combat my hormonal imblance caused by other problems which they cant bloody fix, dont take them either .. sick of it all to be honest.Ill be fine in a couple of days.. downward spiral is hormonal..LOL. gawd..gotta larf

Kev, its a bit like my love life... not that i have one.. but whatever i treat with love and kindness..ends up breaking anyway. :(

Y'know, if the head wasnt cracked, i could of repaired this car... but it would be throwing money in the bin if i got a recon head for it. I have to be honest, it is kinda annoying that this has happened.

It is in immaculate condition..well the body work is.LOL Ive been offered another lucida, that will come with a years warrenty, for 1200. The guy who has offered it to me is a mechanic who has been helping me when ive got stuck on taking parts off and has given advice. The engine is stripped down a lot more than what is shown in the pics. How can i turn down a used car, in a private sale, that he will give a warrenty on for a year? so i know that if anything major happens..he will repair it.. a deal too good to miss.

oops, happy belated birthday wishes guys... :(

Well guys, you all know the timing belt snapped on my car .. heres the result after working on it a few days. I was away flying weekend just gone from the thursday till sunday down in Norfolk and had an ace time. Anyway, heres my engine.. the car is not viable to repair im afraid, new head/valves/cam/timing belt/water pump etcc needed, total cost to repair would be nearly 800 quid.So im breaking her up. Im doing this to help fund a fund to get another car as no car means my kids dont go to school. i got a couple o weeks to raise around 500 quid. The cam shaft was in 6 pieces, the shims once i wiped the muck off them, were dented where they had hit the lobes, 3 out of 8 valves bent, head cracked. Any donations gratefully accepted. :(

she was hedging her bets hun, in the hope that there might of been at least one decent looking guy on here.;)

Maybe she's seen your pic. :D Then she dont know what shes missing. ;)

LOL..gawd you boys, yup, only admin could sort it, and admin sorted it, so im afraid lads, you will just have to tear up yer tickets.. cyborg.. you norty man, never ever tell your mrs you get mail like that and even if you tell her its spam, she wont believe you.LOL.. gawd..funny as feck..and never call another woman love that your mrs cant see, or if she is younger/slimmer/prettier than your mrs. as she will make you pay.. LOL.. gawd love it.. funny. Oh, Judith obviously isnt gay, as i didnt get a pm from her. have to say, im not into kebabs anyway. and by the way again, been busy, still am busy trying to sort me car as the timing belt snapped.. big mucho ouchies at the moment.

Done. her account is suspened. Sorry not been around, been busy, also trying to fix me car as my timing belt snapped, new head/valves/camshaft/gaskets etcc.. ..all bloody good fun. So guys, im afraid you shall have to find fish elsewhere.lol
