    Spare car wanted!!!

    Keeper of The Kitten needs to take Kitty off the road - now!!!

    Therefore, Martin (aka KOTK) needs a spare car - very cheap and reliable!

    When I say cheap I'm referring to a few hundred pounds, an old beater that can still be taken on journeys of a couple of hundred miles without too much trouble. Petrol or diesel, either is fine by me. Doesn't need to be a huge tank - currently, I have a tatty old 1988 Polo, but it's not really good enough anymore.

    I'm based in Suffolk, UK - so if you're fairly local that's great, but all offers welcomed!

    PM me if you think you can help!

    Thanks in advance -

    Time for annual spending spree then!

      Yep!

      Got another block with fresh bearings and gasket, oil pump and stuff (thanks Jay!), bigger turbo, my second RS2 EM, a pile of other bits, and a strong desire to go faster and quicker than before.

      Also spotted a bit of a Kitty leak today so I think now is a very good time to let her take a break and come back stronger than before. She'll be looking for fresh suspension and brakes, new tyres and some cosmetics (new mirror in particular).

      Any more offers, send 'em my way!

              Hi everyone!

              Thanks for the replies (Wab, got your PM).

              Simon, you're easily the most local to me - I could live with a Micra (I can always wear a paper bag while driving it). Drop me a PM!

                  Thanks folks!

                  The 4.0 Jag is a bit too much, I need a low tax motor - and I think the Micra wins on this occasion!

                  Many thanks to all for getting in touch, it looks like I am sorted now
