Not sure I need to speak to them tomorrow, they called on my mobile and where I work I'm lucky if I get 1 bar signal OUTSIDE. I will check that out though, but tbh I'm not interested in that, unless it's over £900 but let's face it I won't get that. £500 of that money is going to our sofa fund (missus been nagging for months to get new sofa's, but I got the car instead :laugh: ), so only got just over £200 to get it sorted unfortunately.

I did suggest that Danny, but my missus pointed out that we live in a 1st floor flat  :embarassed:

Anybody got a crane?  :grin: I'll dump the Frontera in the living room, rip the front seats out and put a cosy 2seater leather bench in the back  :grin:

What would she have done if they didn't give you 500? Then she wouldn't have a sofa fund!  :grin:

She would have the money we already saved up - being a woman she's seen the £ signs and said "MINE!"  :grin:

Next guessing game for you lot:


How much would my car be worth as Salvage?!  :grin:
