The Fleet

[leeds_182]

Well, after a couple of failed eBay attempts I've now got four cars which are currently all taxed and insured.

I've got the a4 which the wife uses everyday which will be staying;

I'm in a bit of a situation as I don't want to run the evo over winter so could do with keeping the golf for daily duties over winter. The Rallye just lives in the garage so that will be sorn from the end of the month and I've only just got the evo so don't want to sell that!

Literally running at £100 a month in tax direct debits!

Yeah, broke down on the third lap but managed to get going again!

The fleets looking good Jim. Evo looks spot on.

Cheers bud. Brakes are squeaking like a b**ch and possibly sticking on but should be able to sort it with a brake service... Hopefully.

I bet your neighbours love you. Four cars you lunatic.

I'm pretty considerate! One on the drive, one in front, one in the neighbours garage and one on the road.

 

[Matthew]

Its the fact one lived in next door's garage that gets me...

 

[Typhoon]

That rallye looked bootiful at CSS.

 

[Stefan.]

Lol at keeping it in the neighbours garage

I thought you were selling the 106? And the golf?

I tried but failed! Golfs still on the bay but the Rallye didn't sell.

What's the details of the rallye (price/spec etc). I have a friend that's looking for one...

It's on the Rallye register dude.

 

[cat171]

Don't sell the rallye!!!!

 

[daveski]

I still want the Rallye but I don't have a neighbours garage to put it in (or my own garage!)

Neighbours garage really does come in handy!

I bought my wife one of those A4's cracking estate. Perfect for lugging all her crap about and the dog!
Even though I had to shell out for a new power steering rack last week. Was not cheap...

Yeah, it'll of been the wife on her way to work probably.

 

[Matthew]

@leeds_182 Im also now running a fleet. Three cars I've now got. It's ridiculous.

 

[Tim.]

And not a Clio in sight! At least the Rallye is French...

 

[thedjse]

Audi seems to sit nice im looking at them atm what kit is it on pal?

 

[Mr R.]

I'm going to view a 190 bhp 1.8 t sport tomorrow for the wife.

It's just the s line kit before s line existed. I forget what it's called. Kind of makes it look a little rs4 b5.......kind of.

In order to rid of first...

• The Golf goes. It has nothing 'feature wise' that the Audi already doesn't. Nothing particularly outstanding about them either.
• The Audi goes. Get an ear-chewing off the missus, but it should at least have a decent resale value to line your pocket with monies.
• The little Pug. Highly desirable - anyone with a hint of petrol obsession coursing through their veins would want a go. Possibly a bit fragile from the comments dann2707 mentioned?
• The Evo. Get rid and you'll feel like me. A little bit of me dies every time I think about it...

 

[leeds_182]

Out of the list if probably rather sell the Rallye as it doesn't get used. The golf is my daily, the Audi is the wife's and the Evo would be the weekend motor.

Like that golf estate. I'm after a cheap diesel estate now.

Love the rallye too, although for a basic small car they're unreliable! Well at least mine was!

To be honest, for a 20 year old French car it's not too bad! Few niggles every now and again but nothing major (touch wood).

 

[Danith]

Ha yeah but when I had mine it was an L reg in 1999. My first hot/warm hatch and I loved it even if it did bleed me dry
