J0N's (Jonnyjonjon's) LCR. Gone But Not Forgotten.

[J0N]

Thanks for all the comments everyone, at least I'm not feeling as bad as the cat lol. I'd love a set of winter tyres for the LCR but I reckon I could get a half decent winter car for around the £500 mark. I've been considering getting a banger for the daily commute for a while anyway.

That's not a bad idea Jon

 

[Willie]

WAY more hastle than winter tyres for me, but each to their own

 

[AntneeUK]

Buy one with a few months MOT, run it over winter, sell it afterwards

 

[J0N]

It's not just the weather though, it's the price of V Power and the mileage that I'm racking up.

TBH Jon, I'm looking at a job where I'll be driving between Mansfield, Newark, Sheffield and sometimes even Hemel Hempstead, and since my LCR is already getting close to 100k miles I'm thinking about looking for a low mileage diesel, depending on whether I get the job or not. The question is whether I can afford to keep the LCR at the same time or not... I hope I can!

I can understand you wanting to keep the mileage down

 

[J0N]

Could'nt resist.

Looks good, don't show DK though as he'll be very jealous

 

[Mashburn]

Nice!

 

[J0N]

Lol, I think he's beaten me to it tbh.

 

[AntneeUK]

Should look good on the car Jon

 

[J0N]

Well I should be dropping the car off tomorrow and picking it up on Wednesday so fingers crossed.

 

[RS6]

[J0N]

Cheers Mate. Dipstick now sorted though.

 

[Mashburn]

And for a fraction of the price.

I'm so glad i didnt fork out for the Nuespeed one!

Could'nt resist.

Looks good though Jon

Got the car back on Thursday and I'm delighted with it. Beautiful spray job,
perfect colour match, everything is straight and lined up correctly but best of
all, no more stone chips. Just need it to stop raining now so I can get some
decent pics posted.

 

[gezmeister]

Good as new! Bet you're happy to have it back?

 

[jonathan_phang]

Jonny, that looks great!!! Well worth the money eh Nice to see her in good condition again. Oh, and let it keep raining! It helps to get rid of the b@stard snow !!!

 

[J0N]

Cheers. I must admit, I never thought I'd be happy to see rain.
