Stonkin Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Well after going to see Charlie’s car last night, I am 99% sure that I will be coming back to the fold. Weve met before, and he clearly is a great guy, thats put a lot of heart and soul into the car. Typically it was sunny all day, I got 3 miles from his house and the sky opened up! Great timing. So now I found myself with hopefully a not to difficult task of selling my car, hmmm, I seem to remember myself in this position when I was trying to sell the scooby and buy Mawby’s supra. For me its about being part of the club scene which I have missed very much, I knew the 325, however ‘nice’ a car to drive wouldn’t keep me happy, but it got me over a hurdle at the time. Hopefully all will go to plan. One question I have is around insurance, did anyone that went from a TT to a single find a huge jump in premium. Im 27, with 7 years no claims and was paying around £850 for my TT, but that was 18 month ago. Christian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonkin Posted July 29, 2008 Author Share Posted July 29, 2008 Cheers Jamie. I havent actually agreed verbally with Charlie that i will have the car, but it seems something in me has already made that decision I'll call later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul mac Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 nice to see you back mate, tbh the insurance does start to rack up a bit once you start declaring everything, phone em first and get a rough idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonkin Posted July 29, 2008 Author Share Posted July 29, 2008 Cheers Darryl, i know its a good car, but is still very daunting for me owning such a thing, think i have a whole load of new stuff to learn about, but then thats all the fun. Just wish i had my old wheels! nevermind, time for something new perhaps.. Really hope mine can be sold in time and this doesnt all go tits up!

turbonut Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 yay!! good news hun Didnt think you'd be able to keep away from the mad house forum for long Fingers crossed you go ahead with it. There are a fair few single owners here so I'm sure there'll be plenty of advice if you take the plunge. Lx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonkin Posted July 30, 2008 Author Share Posted July 30, 2008 Hi Linda, mad house it may be, and long may that continue Nic, i knew when i posted that it would find its way to you somehow, hope you are well mate. Ed, well, what can i say, but i do think the active insect remover would be more up to the job Burna, lets hope once this deal is done we can meet on the roads again, and hopefully the pesky beemer drivers without indicators will stay out our way Cheers everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burna Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Burna, lets hope once this deal is done we can meet on the roads again, and hopefully the pesky beemer drivers without indicators will stay out our way Was just thinking about that the other day Was a funny encounter, the outcome will certainly be different next time when you get your single Nice drive from mine to Cornwall, think I might do a weekend down there soon if the weather improves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
