Hi Guys,

I never thought this day would come, but 'Rupert' is going up for sale. I'm nearly 75 years old, and can't really afford to run two cars, having lost my part-time job to Covid, so having to fall back on the cheaper A Class, which is a nice car, but no S Type. However, was looking on the Forum for a sales section without success. Anyone here got any good suggestions for somewhere I can advertise my old friend where I'm not likely to be plagued by timewasters. Rupert is in a locked garage, so I don't have any time pressures in making sure he goes to a good home. 

What do you think?

Regards to all. Keep safe

Hi

I'd advertise it on EBAY, as a Classified, as it gets the widest audience

but now may be no the right time to sell, values will be lower due to the current covid !Removed! up

may be worth sitting on it for a while, if you have the space, if if you do, get a smart charger on it, or you will end up will a low battery and loads of module issues

just out of curiosity what engine is it, as it says 2.6 in title and they never made a 2.6, assume 2.5 petrol or 2.7 diesel,

post some pics up, some one may be interested on here

cheers

Joe

Hi Joe

I presume one has to plug the smart charger into a wall socket. My garage is away from the house in a block and is without electricity. Thanks for the advice, though. I'll put some pics up on here in a bit.
