Default Selling my car

Well, I've done it, I didn't want to, but I have.

I've finally listed my MG on Ebay (along with my house). I really don't want to see it go, especially as I will then be left with no toy and a house that I am desperate to sell.

Talk about depression. I would have quite happily kept it for another couple of months, but as my OH sold his last month, he feels compelled to nag me into selling mine (just spiteful I think).

Anyway. All sympathy would be gratefully appreciated. If you want to have a look, now is your chance before it;s not mine anymore.

If you do want to get a replacement sometime, check out auto trader..there're a couple of MGs on there at the moment (one is a midget, though).

Or buy this (and promise to let me have a go )

Holy cow DNS thats a beautiful car - was more a fan of the MGBGT but what a stunning example you have. Understand now why you would be upset.

Look on the brightside (both you and Coffeepot i'm refering to here)

You could always build yourself a Factory Five cobra (do a search for them - awaesome kit car company, although you will be gutted to find out that you cannot yet import the kit into Canada for the GTM. Mr MMC very upset to find that out this weekend)

Bung a nice V8 in it and you have something that looks, sounds and performs very nicely indeedy!!



Stuff it heres the link http://www.factoryfive.com/

(already on the list for when the GTM becomes allowed in these parts )

Has he been speaking to Al at Western Canada Cobras? He's a good friend of mine. He could always buy one of my cars if I ever get around to getting it to market!
