So off home we went. Suddenly that evening another "minter" popped up, again in North Yorkshire! So Sunday morning off we went again oop North. Turned out to be a stunner and the guy was a mechanic who took a "liking" to the shitty pug 106 diesel I had driven up there and knocked me £150 off the Astra so he could use the pug as a daily driver. Didn't have the heart to tell him I was gonna ask him to scrap the pug lol
At least you got a good result in the end!
