Re: Narrow body project
Hi thanks guys!!!
I did wonder when I got it home yesterday what have I done lol but nothing ventured.
Yes live just outside Lutterworth car was only about 5 miles from me. Went to see it before the auction, got outbid, original bidder pulled out so I was the lucky/ unlucky one!!
Car was brought new from Storm Lotus in Leicester and comes with loads of bills etc so although I know it wont be straight forward I think its worth saving
