I'm never on autoshite. I maybe should be lol. If that tt a duties of montrose car it's maybe not even that far from me. It looks a good buy but would have been right at the top of my budget, the 407 I'm getting has the same engine and box and newer for a lot less dosh[emoji39]

I think the 407 coupe is a better bet than either a C5 X7 or a C6 Davie , what's for the takeaway run the 107 .

I'll continue to use the leon for the takeaway until it's tidied up and sold, then the 107 will do it. I shall resist using the 205 or 407 for it but if I have to use one of them then I think I'd actually use the bosses audi lol

Is it obligatory to wear a baseball cap on backwards when delivering pizza in the Leon Davie?

Seems that way down here ;) :lol:

All the above is true lol. Scottish citylink gold coaches are the comfiest, roomiest public transport i have ever been on. Two seats on one side and one on the other, comfy leather recliners, loads of legroom, complimentary teas/coffees and scones and all for a 50p booking fee with my concession card. This particular coach was made by van hool which is, or certainly was the rolls royce of coach makers.

I need to keep the leon for work only, needs big wheels, big spotlights, go faster stripes, all in dayglow orannge cos its black, and a set of ear splitting air horns and speakers the size of the boot to announce my prescence [emoji38][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

I hope you can and do Davie. There's nothing quite like having a goal in life and achieving it :)
