Trip to Oxford to view possible FREE cougars

[Mako]

Good summary Al, and I think your plan has merit if we cover fuel costs for whomever is towing. It would be great if we could at least achieve the feat of getting both Cougars off the drive and somewhere that we can store them.

As for the ones at Pangbourne - and I'm thinking well ahead here - if any of them are at least servicable and safe in my judgment, I could book an MOT on the day (which it will probably fail for some reason but would at least make it legal to move) and drive it back here.

On my arrival,, a very exited Matt showed me how solid the sills are on both cars,

I know it's sad, but......

Al's plan sounds like absolutely the way to go. I would volunteer for towing if only I still had that Isuzu but i have nothing with a towbar available.

I'm not surprised you slept well Al after this

saffron waldon, isn't that in Essex though Tony?

Exactly...........

If we can cover the cost of the trailer, transport is sorted.
The volvo will pull these easily as proven with Matts.

Did you manage all that pie Al? It's bigger than your head

..and that's no trickery. That is how big it was . Yes i completely emptied it of all traces of cow but the pastry was a little heavy going. I also ate four chips

Just down the road from me £55 for a day

 

[Pid_16V]

Well it seems like we may be sorted for transportation but i'll let the guys concerned post the details as i don't know them all 100% .

Thanks for all the offers though guys.

Excellent news

 

[Rickysmith189]

I have a lowloader sorted for Saturday (prefer them to trailer) plus I have blew a hole in my intercooler on the Volvo so thats going to cost a small fortune and probably wont be done by Saturday.

You know that garaged one? Tracey is speculating about buying it depending on cost. If it's reasonable and a viable project, she's on it. We will make room.

Thank you - I appreciate that.

I bought Jinxy for her, so she wants to buy a Cougar for me.

Anyway, we do have room (via the family) so I'll do what I can down the line, to take on one of the other cars.

Of course not and it won't be free. But if the price is resonable, T will take it.

You can have the Melina if you can weld

Its going to be awesome to see these cars get rescued. That garden is something i've dreamt of finding for years, and it looks like its going to be a succesful mission for us.
