Can't decide what to do, so we want your opinions please :D

Do we keep Charity as the off roader and leave Cherry as the shiny truck?

or

Do we sell Charity and modify Cherry?

All views welcome 8)

keep them both
as mentioned if one goes a bit pete tong you've got back up.With cherry's recent problems you can see where I'm going with this.
Besides means you then have 2 vechicles to go and play with  :wink:  

Also you need to have a friend for cherry and a friend for charity.
One will get lonley with out the other  :cry:

Just to put the cat among the pigeons - a disco is not the ideal vehicle to rep around a city centre, which is what I do!!!!!

Currently we have the 2 disco's and my 2L Primera.  We will only have 2 vehicles shortly - so which one goes???????

I cannot be without a car, and Cliff has a long way to go to work - 2 disco's = reliability  :?  :?

Maybe it should be Cherry and the Primera :?:

Sorry Charity - yours days are numbered  :twisted:  :twisted:  :twisted:

you could sell your cherry to the highest bidder on an auction,what price would you sell your cherry for :?  could you possibly give your cherry to the right person if they came along? but dont let anyone take your cherry if you really want to hang on to it

Think that you should keep both, Cliff has been through alot with Charity and devoloped a bond with all the bits that have been lovingly repaired
(violin time) :cry:

Equally think that you should definitely keep your Cherry as shiny and new think a Disco is ideal vehicle for rep'n as can get more demo stock in back

So i vote keep Charity and Cherry (his and hers  :lol: )

I sell transport - can't get a 40ft artic in the back!!!!!!!!! :(bigshock):

Did find it handy for getting up the kerbs next to factories today though.  I must not race off the lights like I used to (still went faster in the disco than the little yellow thing that was next to me :oops: ).  It is not right or clever to race. :wink:

And what is wrong with a disco in towns. Sell the nissan if one has to got. If a disco dose brake "very rare" easy to fix and we know 3500 "give or take"people who will help.  :wink:  :D  :D

Keep both, you can keep Cherry mostly nice and shiny and then you won't break her equaling much better reliability than maybe you have considered.  

At the same time having both means that if Clif does break Charity your weekend plans aren't totally snaffuuuued.  8)

Least thats what I'd do.

(Also you can nick bits off his if yours breaks....)

 :oops: Have done already.  But then Clif did break the part.  :lol:

Coming to the conclusion that the Primera has to go.  Just need to get Charity fixed first. :?  She is sat on the front garden doing nothing while my Primera is in constant use.  :shock:

Will decide at the weekend exactly which is going - watch this space.  8-[

I am glad I had my rover when the disco went pete tong on the way to a camp site with the caravan behind me but luckily it wasnt anything major. The auto box oil temp light came on but found out it was just the switch had rusted through and shorting the light on.

Everyone says to me get rid of the rover and have just the disco but I am adament on keeping both so I have a back up car if either go tits up on me and both can tow the caravan too :D

I say bye bye Primera.

3 cars is expensive to run. I did it last year for 4 months. Wasnt planned!!!  :shock:

Mental note - Buy cheap, get Cliff to "fix" something on it, whatever it may be, he breaks it, and I get the one off Charity. :lol:  :lol:

Like your style Karen.  :wink:
