My New Yee - haw Pick Up Truck

[R3k1355]

Put a tenner in 2 days before and did 30 miles driving home

Put a tenner in 2 days before and syphoned 12 quid back out an hour before Jim got there.

 

[Willo40]

Ha ha, I just messaged the seller and told him that if he sells that white truck he might want to put some fuel in or at least tell them to bring a can.

‘The fuel station was only 5 miles away’

Yeah, I made it 4 miles mate.

‘Well, I put a tenner in 2 days before’

I don’t think £10 of super at £1.60 a litre goes that far in a 6.6 litre v8.

What a f**king moron.

i bet it used £4.50 pulling off the forecourt.... what a pleb.

 

[Howell]

nowhere near 5 miles from where you picked it up to where Tesco's was........


2 miles at the most

Yeah, it didn’t seem that far to me. He implied I’d gone on the motorway before trying to fill up!

We’re not friends anymore.

 

[McGherkin]

Tell Dale to go crash into another fuckin wall at 200mph.

 

[botfch]

Too complex just call him a Nonce.

 

[Donny_Dog]

Dale smokes c**k, pass it on

 

[leeds_182]

Dale smokes c**k, pass it on

Dale likes tail.

 

[Robbie Corbett]

Who the f**k is Dale?

 

[Clio_fool]

Who the f**k is Dale?

Chips bro innit.

Daily update;

Walls the recovery agent who are supposed to be moving the truck had a better offer today so won’t be getting moved.

The RAC are gonna see in the morning if they’re free and then look into alternatives if not.

Its now 6 days since I broke down and the truck has moved a grand total of around 30 miles.

I have also had to say goodbye to my c1 - it will be missed.

 

[Matt Cup]

Is that C1 hearing aid beige?

 

[leeds_182]

Is that C1 hearing aid beige?

It stinks of piss and lavender inside.

 

[Clio_fool]

That is a hearing aid. What an absolute s**t show this "recovery" has been so far. Get the sen on watchdog.

 

[Stefan.]

This is gonna be the longest vehicle you've owned if this carries on.....😅

 

[Cookson]

Can you sell it from the recovery place?

 

[R3k1355]

Why has the C1 gone back, it's not like they've bothered moving the truck yet?

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

Hold on, so they aren't delivering your car, and they're taking away the rental? Man, they really are shite.

How are you not losing your s**t over this? Or is it because you're going to sell the truck as soon as you get it?

 

[McGherkin]

He’s got his mate Kier on it

RAC: "Yo, where's the Citroen?"

Jim: "ah well you see it's at the compound, and it would be here, but they've had a better offer, but I'm hopeful it will be here soon"

 

[Robbie Corbett]

I know the AA are equally shite at times but at least they own their own big flat bed trucks.

 

[Robbie Corbett]

Can you sell it from the recovery place?

"We told you sir, we can't deliver it today, please stop asking"
"I don't want you to deliver it"
"oh, why?"
"I want you to take 12 high resolution pictures capturing all the best bits. then in 7 days time I will have 'moved house' and also changed my name, you can deliver it there"

 

[leeds_182]

Can you sell it from the recovery place?

I would if I knew where it was!

 

[leeds_182]

He’s got his mate Kier on it

He’s already told me it wouldn’t happen under a labour government.

 

[RustyMojo]

Personally wouldn’t have released the rental car back to them until I had confirmation of when it will be delivered

 

[leeds_182]

I don’t think the C1 offered me much leverage.

 

[RustyMojo]

I don’t think the C1 offered me much leverage.

I think you are wrong personally, the rental
Company will be hammering them to get the car back. Doesn’t matter if it’s a C1 or a Merc E~class. They will have it forward booked.

New Truck Update…

Walls were apparently on route with the truck BUT apparently that was not correct. The RAC man said that the head of Walls had given his personal guarantee that it will be delivered tomorrow.

Yeah, right.

So, I wasn’t happy with that so we are now going for plan F. The RAC are going to move the truck today - one truck to the midlands and the second truck to York.

Let’s see how that pans out!

 

[R3k1355]

Trucks going to end up in Exeter isn't it?

The RAC will claim it's arrived in York, Walls will claim it's still in their yard.

 

[Donny_Dog]

It’s been collected.

Hopefully by the RAC!

Throwback

 

[leeds_182]

Thomas is apparently going to pick it up.

Should be collected by 5pm.

I’ll keep you all updated.

 

[Mr Underhill]

I'm with the RAC but am seriously thinking of binning them after your saga. What a carry-on!

 

[Matt Cup]

Thomas is apparently going to pick it up.

Should be collected by 5pm next Thursday.

I’ll keep you all updated.

EFA

 

[leeds_182]

Driver one has collected the truck and it’s on its way to Birmingham.

 

[Clio_fool]

Driver one has collected the truck and it’s on its way to Birmingham where it will be stripped to a chassis before it's on the next flatbed.

Shame.

 

[Louis]

Driver one has collected the truck and it’s on its way to Birmingham.

My condolences. It'll come back with a fresh MOT and clocked back 10k atleast

 

[Donny_Dog]

Go Tomacsz

 

[Flat Eric]

Any updates?

 

[leeds_182]

Any updates?

All quiet on the Birmingham front.

 

[leeds_182]

After categorically promising me the truck would be delivered tonight…..guess what….it’s not.

Spoke to them and it’s now in Walsall and they can’t give me an idea when the next leg of the journey begins.

Tried to escalate the call to a manager but they apparently don’t have managers or supervisors in the call centre.

So fucked off. I can see it going into next week.
