Hi guys...

Favour time / deal time

Can anybody move a car from 1 part of Boston to another part (a friends house who has the space) so I can store it there till I get up to trailer it home
or
A free Activa TCT Donor Car to the person who gets it from Boston and trailers it to me in Somerset ? (take the donor Activa home with you)


Cheers

Yep....I have taken a bit of a gamble.

.....not sure if its worth it as I do not need the engine and the other parts sound "used" vrs the ones on mine.
There is a fair amount of pipe corrosion/leaks etc......but maybe the gearbox, rack and some suspension parts to referb for the shelf I hope.

310000km sounds a pretty 'wearing' mileage to me [emoji1]

Thats a good few return trips to Lithuania.

300-odd Kms is nothing for the engine Mike.. Condition of the rest of the car will be interesting though...

My Activa V6 donor engine has done 205,000 miles and I know it's good...

I am reminded of my grandmother (curiously, a former resident of Winston Gardens, Boston). Her glass wasn't just half-empty, it was more like "Call the police! Someone's stolen half my drink!"...

There is bound to be fun and goodies had out of all this messing around with the subject car. :)
