Wanted -

[Guest stalwart]

another good place to look that I scouted regularly when looking for a Hood was findit.co.uk - try here

That's very cheap if it has been SVA'd and is not still a Sierra on the V5 which it could be as it's advertised as 1988 but worth a look

[Guest micky bigthumbs]

It says that it is MOT'D untill o5 so it must be ok , it must be pre sva like mine . as mine is a 1999

[Guest mickmellors]

I've sent the guy a text message to his mobile phone but not had a response yet - fingers crossed - will keep searching - let me know if you spot one ! ! ! Ive made note of the mileages from Mick and Terry and with mine at 143 miles I am going to get the map out and try to work out where in the country it is.

[Peter Bell]

It's 85 miles from Bedford Mick if you need another ref point.

Hi Mick

 

I was bored at work this aft, so worked it out for you.

 

Place is 1 mile from RH20 4DZ, which is Pulborough West Sussex.Cheers

Lee

[Guest Andy W]

The car is in Storrington, it is sliding piller front suspention

[Guest micky bigthumbs]

Given Micks budget he could still afford to change it

Mick

[Guest mickmellors]

Storrington it is !!! Post code RH20 4LW - WELL DONE LEE !!!!!! Its even got a Hood related Postcode !!!!

 

I have contacted the seller and I'm on my way down there in the morning (Sat) with my lad, Jack, a bag of bacon butties, a flask of tea and a thick wad of twenties in my rocket in case it is as good as it sounds. I have no reason to doubt it, so I expect to be returning home without the wad of twenties !!!!!.

 

AutoTrader says 143 miles - AutoRoute says 192 !!!!! HMMMMM !!! I'll see what the trip meter says !!!!

 

About a 12 hour round trip, but hopefully ending in a fruitful outcome - you have to be prepared to put yourself out a bit when hunting out a result. I did over 2000 miles hunting the country before finally chosing a Range Rover 12 years ago.

 

I'll report back here on my return.

 

Thanks for the tip offs so far - VERY much appreciated, one and all.

[Guest micky bigthumbs]

Have a safe jurney and good hunting

thats a bit risky telling the world that you will be wondering around with cash like that after what thet bloke told us about your street

[Guest chris brown]

Bill

thats a bit risky telling the world

Trust you to think of that.

It’s just the way the criminal mind works

 

Mick

Best of look but at the price you can afford to change any little bits you don’t like

[Guest chris brown]

Come on Mick spill the beans and let us know! Are you the proud owner of a Hood or not?

[Guest rizla]

[Guest chris brown]

I think he's gone all shy Riz

 

Just like you did when you were getting yours
