Some things just can't be placed elsewhere. Have you been speeding and got fined? Or spotted a nice new Volvo on the web somewhere? All non-480 messages can be posted in this part of the board.

Hi Murf,
I'm looking for a headlamp washer pump, part number: 340 22 05 - 3.
I am wondering if you have one, and if so, what would you ask for it.
You can pm me, or post here on tis topic.
Regards,
Wiljen
Greets,

How can they do that? Was the private land yours or did the land owner request they be taken away?

Was in the spacious private car park of my flat. Both cars were untaxed as they were on private land and SORN.
It was either the council that thieved them or, later in the week, i saw a DVLA truck with a couple of confiscated cars on it.
Never found out for sure where our cars ended up

I think you should write a stern letter to them Murf - sending yet another 440 up into the sky with such useful bits
the b*stards!

It just disappeared? I would have looked into this and not just let it go, that was worth a lot in parts. I think you should find out what happened to them and who took them.

Holy smokes, sorry to hear that Murf. I'd phone them and say your not too happy and ask what they're going to do about it. Gutted.

In fairness ... it was in the spacious private car park of your
old flat!
Rohan's car was in loose pieces and therefore deemed dangerous, but not the 440 ... the local residents must have asked they be up-lifted as abandoned vehicles. If the council yoink them, you do get them back for free if you notice within a week!

Indeed but who was to know i'd moved out?
Cant be arsed chasing it up as even if i got it back i'd still have nowhere to store it!
One thing is that i was going to store my MR2 there over the winter, thank fuck i didnt or that would have gone to the crusher, my 440 parts car i can deal with but £4.5k down the tube would have been a bit harder to swallow!!
