So when I posted about the frogeye before I actually forgot about a tax exempt 220D W115 Mercedes which I missed by a couple of hours, until it happened again today!
Late last night I found this on the bay:
www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150734701754?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_500wt_1202
First thing this morning I ring the guy up, ask him if he's looking for cash or to let the auction run, he wants cash and we agree a price and he says he'll hold it for me.
The car is in Wigan, 150 miles away and I can't go get it until tomorrow, so I arrange some insurance and a ride to Wigan
Then a few hours later I get a call to say someone else went round and bought the car tonight
I can't believe I've now missed 2 of these cars in my price range. I really want a diesel but they're so hard to find in pre-minor change, tax exempt form, guess I'm going to have to resort to plan B and make my own after I clear a couple of other projects.
Still gutted though, but to end on a high note, here's what I have in mind:
One day!
