Drove to dealers in Hereford yesterday to look at a 2009 90 TDCI in Stornoway, was really just looking, this caught my eye as it was £21000, fsh (checked) 12 month full warrantee, absolutely spotless, sold by them originally, came in as a p/x 56000 mls they kept it bcause of its condition, went over it with fine toothcombe-well as good as I could, wrote down things to check which is the advice I read up on here, pick it up Tuesday !! how can a 53 yr old still be excited about something ?? I thought that went with age, so train up Tuesday drive home nice and slow, now all I have to do is learn how to use it !.
anyway thought I would let you all know

Nice and glad to hear you got a new toy.

Get good security and REMOVE your postcode from your location.

Cheers

Congrats, two things
1 get some security upgrades and a tracker.
2 take your postcode off your location as Google maps displays your street (assuming that is your real postcode)

Hi Pete,

Good advice would be a physical lock, ie a Disclok and also a tracker, ie Skytag.

You can only do so much, but as vehicles were stolen in Lane end a few weeks ago, please be careful, do nto want your joy to turn to pain.

Cheers

Why does everyone type faster than me
Have a read of the stolen section for some inspiration and I'm afraid to say other peoples complacency
