Scrap prices are on the fall. They were £150/tonne when I called them a couple of weeks ago, down from £170 a month before that.
£110 for a scrap XM isn't much, whats that about £85/£90 a tonne.

Well Franklin, you've had your V6 then!
Nice or not? Listen to a 24v PRV though if you think the 12v is nice... See you at CXM!

Yep, I've got my V6!
Well, not 100% true as I haven't physically got the car back yet and it won't be back for a couple of weeks due to logistical reasons, but will get pictures ASAP and post them up.
They do have a lovely noise and seeing that it's only done around 50-odd thousand miles (1991 J Reg) it's barely run in too.
BTW, does anyone know what's the lowest mileage PRV V6 around in the XM circles?
Unfortunately I don't think it will be at the CXM Rally, but it WILL be at the National Rally...there's no excuse really, as it's only 2 miles away!

...most probably going to be a CX I'm afraid Chris!
It
WILL be at the National though...I think that Matthew T might take a V6 too:
That is good news as it is quite close to us and much easier than last year. Hopefully I can persuade the family to come and bring two XMs!! Look forward to seeing to all there. Matthew T.
Are you planning on coming to the National in your 24v Paul?

That's a shame Paul as it should be a good event with the new location - suppose it is quite far from you though.

Does anyone think it's a bit odd that these two are picking up bids really quickly such a long way from the auction end.
