RobVal 1 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Hi everyone I'm Rob, the very pleased owner of this lovely 55 plate with cream interior and 58k on the clock. Needed to cheer myself up after some unexpected and unwelcome news concerning my health. So far it's doing job as I hoped (which is just as well as it cost enough!). I'm as sucker for convertibles and chose this as Toyotacars have a good reputation.....and there's room in the back for the dog too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It is worth getting a peak at this stage ............. MOT wont be an indicator of what its like unless its horrendous . Maybe you'd rather not look ?😁 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Welding ?...........what welding ? ............ what medication are you on ?. You need to be less aggressive or no one on here or any other board will want to advise or help you . Now take care of yourself . I wont be commenting any further ! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobVal 1 Posted January 29 Author Share Posted January 29 Oh dear, well the rest of the members have been fine. Oh and I should of said, it was £177 because I swapped my NCD from my other car. I am on medication as it happens, but it doesn't affect my cognitive abilities. In future try to think more about how you approach people you don't know, it's a little impolite and tends to annoy. After a while try something like "Hi mate, hope you don't mind me advising but they are prone to rust issues. I'd get it checked out if you haven't already." Take care & stay safe.
