My new Sc430

[RobVal]

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!

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 ?😁

[RobVal]

Well I've plenty of money in the bank if it needs doing.  Was yours bad then?

[RobVal]

No, just relieved that I'm not as worried about it as you are.  Must have been a real lemon you bought.  Did you see my post about insurance by the way?

Oh just that I got comprehensive cover for £277 from the RAC and wondered if it'd be of any use to anybody.

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 !

[RobVal]

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.
