MOT passed!

dcw · Aug 5th, 2013, 16:43

Morwenna, my 480 Celebration, passed her MOT today.

There was a slight issue with emissions, but the tester had time to spare so we added some BG44K, I gave the car a quick run around, came back and this time she passed just fine.

So, now she's up for sale in the For Sale section - I have loved owning her and looking after her but it really is now time to move on to a new toy (C70 convertible purchased last week that now needs the same sort of TLC to get back up to a suitably high standard!).

Well done on the pass David, just a shame you're selling up.

Hopefully Morwenna will find a happy home... Just not with me, I've got enough!!

Is that the next step for 480 owners? C70's? :P

dcw · Aug 6th, 2013, 13:58

You'd noticed the trend then...?

And I only knew about Dave's once I told him about mine, so we acted completely independently!

It's bloody weird how we both ended up with C70s without knowing the other was getting one! I wasn't even in the market for one. As you know I was really after a BMW E30. After the 480 sold someone offered me a 318i 4 door as a p/x so it could have been a very different story.

As Steve says it is a shame you're selling up too but as this is the 3rd time it will most certainly be the last! Or the wife'd have you I imagine!

Are you two psychopathically linked? Hehe its a funny coincidence though
