Aye, my old girl will be gone before it's next tax renewal (May 09),
buggered if I'm paying £300. Just need to get the credit card down a bit
before I dive in for a GT 1.9, hoping to pick up a JTDm before the end of
the year.
The 156 will have to go before the m***** realise how much they're going
to
be paying in VED from next year. Not that a 2001 156 is worth that much
these days anyway, 100K on the clock, be lucky to see £1.5K
Bit of a dilemma though, it's due a cambelt at 108k, do I sell it before
or
after? If 'after' that's £500 or so for the whole service that I'm not
going to get back on the sale value.....hmmmm
