Title: Going but not saying good bye
Post by: Paul on May 09, 2023, 06:08:17
As some of you know I am in Cyprus.

I am changing my car but not leaving.

Why am I changing my car, well I was a witness in a hit and run court case from 2015 and the defendant lived next door to me and my late wife.

We moved house before the court case to get away from him!

He knows what car I drive and he is now out of prison here in Cyprus, he is the sort of man to come looking for me, so changing my car is going to be a safe move on my part.

The car I am getting is a Dacia Duster 1.5 L diesel, I have noticed as I am getting older the Getz is a bit low for me to get in and out, as well as that it is 16 years old now.

I now and then look in on the new jokes please page as I started that page around 2010.

Gosh, good luck with that plan!
Maybe you don't want to share your next identifiable car details here then....doen't mean you stay as anonymous as you'd like perhaps?

Incidentally I'm new, posted 2 days ago but don't know how to distribute beyond 'General Chat', but I'm very keen to get some guidance if any available before tomorrow on buying decision between Venga 3 & Ix20 SE 2019 (as per my post). Anyone specific I can direct this to that is responsive?

Enjoy Cyprus!

I am not getting the Dacia duster, I did some checking on the vin number and it turns out the car was imported to Cyprus and it had accident damage on it.
Further to say it was a cat N write off in the UK and failed it's MOT twice 2020 and 2021 for the same thing (Tyre ware and ball joint PS), and 4 months after it was in an accident and the report said about safety damaged parts.
Started looking again for a car but not second hand this time!

Good news the dealer has refunded my deposit.
Better news I will soon be getting a brand new Duster 1.5 Diesel.
