ebay + booze = T5 purchase

Post by Welly » Thu May 29, 2014 7:21 am

Nice story about a guy spotting, buying and collecting a Volvo bought on ebay (ignore the first page and a half of misunderstanding it does get better): http://autoshite.com/topic/17013-220ish ... he-result/
Cars in my care:

2005 Volvo S40 T5 a bit pampered, now lacking boostage, under investigation
2010 Citroen C4 1.6 HDi turbo de' explosions, injured leg but now recovering from shock
2010 Renner Twingo refreshingly simple, now with fresh MOT, no advisories
