I didn't sell much but I did aquire some stuff I was after:
Wheels and many tyres
Corsa-B epas with ECU
Mk1 Nova snowplough :D
Full height rear 3dr cards (Nice one Dave)

None of that was from the actual jumble though! It was all pre-ordered stuff from other club members lol

Not much as usual! More a case of the usual social event seeing people you don't see often and have a catch up, and pick parts up you've agreed to get over the last few month

bought today
gsi fuel pump rubber holder things
Filler neck inlet hose
Press pictures
Spanish nova cabriolet brochure
And a rare stereo adjuster to do the right/left fade on the stereo

Think I struggled to spend more than £30!!

Picked up
Irmscher front bumper
Irmscher twin headlights
Clear glass set
1.3 wiring harness
rear anti roll bar

took full advantage of Lee taking his sprinter van!!

£100 towing fee and £160 release fee. If I tax it and drive all the way back to Coventry to prove I've taxed it, I get the £160 back lol.
I hate taxing cars I think it's a joke with the state of most roads.

Yeah but your still knowingly driving to club events illegally, if something did happen an accident etc your insurance company can invalidate your insurance as the car isn't taxed it's not going for mot and therefore shouldn't be on the road, I hate road tax too but not worth the risk of an in10 on my licence and at least 6 points and a whacking great fine.

i used to work in insurance and have seen policies invalidated for this!

I got pulled last night and my tax disk is in my glove box lol. They simply asked to see it and said no more. I was more surprised that the only thing he asked about my highly illegal headlight protectors was what the little sticker was (euro deflector bits) once I explained they were a part of the protectors and couldnt be removed he said no more about that either. And the reason for pulling the was I apparently went the wrong way down a one way bit ( no signs to say so). Guess we have nice coppers here

Poor headlights won't affect you as all you'll see is the tail lights homie.
