What colour? What condition is it in? Any scratches or dinks? How many previous owners? Service history?

May be able to trade for a 30mm M6 coach bolt.

its a light green colour with a plaster coat paint covering, its in ideal condition and was featuered on pimp my clip. its had one careful owner and a full history, it was once used to repair winscreen washers on that famous land rover to get it through its mot,

do we have a deal?

Belly button fluff is significant to me!

Okay, now I know the game, I have a set of 6 Georgian crystal glasses I could swap for your light green paper clip. That said, they were a set until one was lost so now there are only five, and three of those are chipped or cracked. Not to worry, that still leaves two perfect ones, pristine in every way apart from the fact they are not actually in the strictest sense of the word … “glass”. Two were replaced in 1978 with modern lime green acrylic versions from a Harrods picnic hamper when the cat knocked the last good crystal one off the patio table on the flagstones shattering it into a thousand pieces. Well, when I say 'pristine', it's only fair to mention that last year 'er indoors drilled a number of ¼” holes in one when she utilised it as a pot to plant a miniature indoor peace lily, and the other melted when it found itself alongside a particularly high flame on the hob when cooking up a beef teriyaki sizzler. Managed to salvage it though as I had the presence of mind to quickly mould it into a Rubic’s Cube before it hardened.

So, obviously can’t let you have the one with the lily (which by the way is still doing very well you’ll be glad to know – I recommend a dose of Baby Bio once a month and keep it out of direct sunlight), but if a beef teriyaki fragranced, non-functioning Rubic’s Cube copy in lime green is any good to you, I’ll swap yer!

I haiv a set of bofa4x4 stickers that I will swop for yer clip.
Brand new and un used.

tom, the storey alone must be worth a paper clip ill get you an orange one

i have a light blue paper clip here that i could swap for some stickers

I'll hold you to that, orange paper clips are sooooooo hard to come by.

Hold on K, you're not supposed to be giving them away, thought the game was to increase in value your 'swaps'? Same goes for the Bofa stickers!!!

you have a point tom right one orange paper clip reserved for tom in exchange for the green rubix cube that smells like beef
Andy bloke, still on for your swap?

and bill i do beleive you owe me stickers already

:farao:

thanks to a certain log on a certain green lane of doom, i have a nice hole in the battery box floor anda hole in a tyre to fix

paper clip for a new tyre anyone?

I have been telt that I haiv a spare tyre Keiran that I want to get rid of.
You will get to view the said spare tyre on the Rally's LOOOOONGGGG DARK SLEEEEPWALKINGGG NEETS

i have plenty of spares about 5 of them all the wrong sort of rim/tyre

does anyone want to buy 4 x disco alloys, 1 x batterd offset 8spoke tyre / rim, and a random tyre with no rim that we have no idea where it came from?

cheers kieran

ive just spoke to the fathership,
£10 per alloy, plus we will through in a free tyre with no rim, and a battered up rim with a trashed tyre for free

Not so fast Andybloke, you didn't ask the vital question ...

Plus a paper clip per wheel or just one for the set?

I did hope that I'd be able to get a couple of paperclips and an alloy for £10 and a 30mm M6 coach bolt... If the tyre's any good, I may even throw in a couple of 10mm nuts to go with the bolts.

the spare tyre with no rim looks to me asthough its never been used, i had it on pinky for about 2 weeks at most when i had a flat tyre untill i got a new set of wheels

cheers kieran

Result Kieran, looks as if you've got your nuts you nut!

Now if you can persuade Andybloke to come down from Leeds in a couple of weeks for the 4x4 Market at WildTraks, Newmarket and you meet him there, you'll have your alloys/tyre and we'll have a decent Landy Rally display! SIMPLE.

Even better, I can collect my orange paperclip.

In fact it gets even better. Come down Saturday afternoon, I'll supply the 'refreshments' for a memory lane session Sat night.

im not a nut im a almond :rabbit:

hey dad, do i get comission for selling your wheels?

Kieran i can get them halfway to andybloke lol just need to get em the last little bit up the M1 lol

i reckon if i go fast enough i can lob them out the window and theyll roll the rest of the way
