Even when not single, no woman ever dared try to tell me what car to drive, in fact in my house, *I* dictated the car choices!

Hi guys
Thanks for highlighting the auction. I've sold it this evening which I must say took me by surprise in terms of I felt slightly emotional about it. However, I've got it til next Sunday (21st) so a few miles of enjoyment yet.
To cut a long story short, no my missus hasn't said 'it has to go' - the opposite in fact, even though she's driven it about twice. No, as mentioned in the advert, I've got the opportunity to purchase a rather nice (and inexpensive) Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit from 1980. Yes, I did say 'nice', 'inexpensive' and 'Rolls-Royce' in the same sentence - it's through a family member, hence the low price. I'm just not 100% sure yet on using it as a daily driver, that's what's holding me back - plus that it's got it's MOT to get through next week... So, if that doesn't come off I need a bit of inspiration: I know they're a bit of an old fart's car but I've always had a soft spot for Rover 75s and despite a rather naff experience last time round, I'd consider an Alfa 166 again... I was considering a high spect Renault Vel Satis or Avantime before but their values are starting to creep upwards, so unless someone fancies parting with a Citroen C6 nice and cheaply that'll be me without a Gallic car for a little while. C5's just don't hold enough interest for me
Anyway, the new owner says he's frequented here before and I've pointed him to look more frequently so say hello if he pops on again
Cheers
Keith

Hi Keith,
Well good luck with whatever you go for, the only trouble i would have with a cheap roller is resisting the urge to drive it into a swimming pool............................
