fincially buying them the easy bit..it`s getting somewhere for them to go..

I dunno maybe i'd think about restoring the Diesel and running it as they are so rare.
Buying these cars is never a problem, picking them up and strage is.
I reckon that if i had a Breakdown vehicle, i would probably make quite a bit of money on the side picking up cars for people.

Even if you've got storage you would have to make three trips unless he let you break them there and you hired a van and loaded it up .

Well I have a 4.6 Range Rover a big car trailer and could easilly fit them in my workshop with my current cars so i dont really have to many excuses Rolling Eyes

.....except it would cost me about £400 in petrol by the time i had finished (Rangie only gets about 12-15mpg when towing)

Although my girlfriends Laguna diesel estate has a towbar and does 50mpg.... Question

......

Personally I really hate breaking cars tho and I need another restoration project (never mind three) like a hole in the head so i think I'm gonna pass..... if only they had been closer..
