    Default Good news and Bad news!

    Well the good news is that im posted to Cyprus in August for 3 years with my job. But the bad news is...I will have to sell the car
    I could store it at my dads house or something but its only going to depreciate further so it looks like I will have to sell her. Sad times.

    Without being cheeky, Is it really going to loose that money with the age of it now?

    I see you've spent quite a bit of money on her.

    Or what about taking her with you?

    I think taking her with me would cost too much, ive had mates out there who looked into taking their cars but its just too expensive. I will prob just get a runaround when I get there.
    Yep I think I may get more money if I sell the mods seperatley guys so look out for a for sale thread with all the bits closer to the time. It wont be nice stripping all the bits off tho
    Never mind, hopefully I can get something just as nice when I return to the uk. Ive no idea whats available in cyprus, or the prices of motors. Will have to look into that. Although I have heard that it is ridiculously easy to get a motorbike license out there lol, maybe I can get a bike to cruise around onin the sun

    I would say store the car at your dad's place, cars depreciate all the time, so i don't think that it matters too much, what matters is how much that car is worth to you and the amount of work you spent on it. Plus the mileage will be left untouched until you get back, unless your dad is going to run it now again for you.
