imminent departure

[stewartwillsher]

La Gata Negra has gone in for a service and check-over ready for sale.
Sadly only a very few kms have been added in the last three and a half years.
Since the beginning of the COVID lockdown in March 2020, here in Spain, the only journeys of any distance have been using the Jag estate and then subsequently the Pug RXH; mainly due to stress, because both were/are automatics, which age (mine) now prefers.

The last eighteen months have been particularly difficult with my wife's health and needing to make regular distance trips for consultancy and chemotherapy then surgery and post-operative appointments.
Subsequent radiotherapy has been closer to home and the runabout (108) has been the appropriate choice.
We shall look for a Mini Auto which my wife desires and then maybe dispose of the 108.
I am now awaiting results following local surgery.

We are both getting very close to eighty and cars are becoming less important, as long as our ability to drive continues.
Driving the RCZ the short run (one km) to the workshop was nice and crisp, but it is not to be.

Many thanks.

LGN has had a revision (small service), oil change, filters, etc., and a pass with no advisories at ITV (MoT).
The bossman (owner) at the Pug taller (workshop), a friend of ours, is getting photo's taken and will go up on a car sales web site.
There are odd rules on advertising cars here, so doing it properly.

Hope you get a good f
Price for her and if you get any photos from the garage post some on here. Take care..Les n Co

Sad day to lose your beloved RCZ. I fully understand your reasons though.

Mine only did @320 miles between MOT’s last time, but I am loathed to think about selling, but I’m coming under increasing pressure from my OH due to the rising costs of having/running a second car.

I hope both you and your OH have improvements in health, and that whatever car you get fits your needs better.

As Les has said, you are welcome to stay around and contribute on here, we would miss you if you left completely.

Stay safe, & let’s see some last few pics of your lovely RCZ.

Thanks for your kind words.
When/if I locate the advert and photo's, I will try and post either a link or copies of them.
Our instructions to our chap are simply to get as good a price for the RCZ and purchase an auto Mini for similar amount, with the proviso being it should meet the Euro 6 emissions standard which are used by many cities here to restrict access.
Both the RXH and 108 meet these requirements, and have the windscreen disc that prevents being fined.

The advert is in, for LGN; here it is, with loads of photo's.

Great advert don't think it's going to be around for long

No nibbles at the bait, so dropped the price a bit.
Will still buy equivalent value in an auto Mini, so no big deal.
