A new stag to replace my burnt out BRG WJA 767K (RIP)

[alistair260661]

I think I may have a replacement car!

I wondered if anyone knows of it, and any of its history before I yrail the length of the counry to see it.

Its a Sapphire Blue L Reg Auto - reg LVD 42L - its in Warwickshire, and may have been in South Wales about a year ago. It seems good, but history always makes it better!

Thanks in advance.

The vehicle details for LVD 42L are:
Date of tax Liability 01 04 2013
Date of First Registration 21 02 1973
Year of Manufacture 1972
Vehicle Colour BLUE

regards

Hi Alistair, I take it things didn't work out with the white one then?

If you need someone to go and look at it (I may not be the best person but I am happy to help) let us know .

[alistair260661]

No it didn't Jim - the guy wanted too much, and I wasn't overwhelmed by the colour - no offence intended

Thanks for the offer very kind - I would take u up on it, but unfortunately the seller is away working all week - so I'll just have to take my chances and come down at the weekend.

you haven't seen it about then?

Hi Alistair

I guess the above statement says why you haven't emailed the details to me...................Or did Andrew Phillips not tell you he had spoken to us about looking at it for you, I'd got a guy who lives in Coventry and has spent a good deal of his life working on them, standing by to go and look.

I;m sorry. I texted Andy to let him know, but I didn't hear back - will phone him just now.

Sorry if I've inconvenienced you all - I didn't mean to - I'm extremely grateful for your offer - I suspect Andy has been very busy and I'm very grateful to him too for contacting you (and for his offer to come down with me) - I suspect he is looking forward to a blast up the M6 in somebody else's Stag on someone else's fuel!!!! just kidding Andy....

I'm so impressed with everyone's willingness to help. thank you all. Please pass on my apolgies to your chap on "stand by".

thanks again

Alistair

M6 here I come - hope the car is OK...............

Theirs no need to be sorry we were just trying to save you a possible wasted journey..........................It sounds like a typical Andy job...............I remember the time he came to stop with us before we all went off to France, but wasn't due to arrive with us till the early hours, so we left the front door open for him...................................Yes I reckon your ahead of me instead of opening the door he pulled it too, and locked himself out, I did think of leaving the stupid b***** out there but took pity and got up to let him in, after a few choice words.
Hope you have a safe journey and the car is worth the long trip..........If you do need anything or have any problems I'm only about 15ml away, Andys got our numbers.

Ah.......... you obviously know Andy better than I do.............. now slightly concerned about what Saturday may bring - I better do the route finding, or we may end up who knows where.........

As an ex lorry driver he should be able to find his way around.............Hmmmm mind you it is Andy we're talking about!!! Can you PM me the post code.

An evening is not too troublesome for me to go down (I work in Rugby and often go by Coventry to see mates etc.).

I am afraid I have not seen it out and about at all. Only a red car on a P plate and yellow RV8 Stag seem to frequent the roads near me.

[alistair260661]

thanks, but we are just going to come down on Sat anyway................

Good luck Alistair. Make sure that Andy does not turn up with a boat on the trailer. Hopefully we will see it at the next club meeting but not on a trailer.
