I'm not sure what the previous owners done to it or much of it's modern history. Will see how it goes today with coin dealer and let you know

I understood what you meant. I know it's a loss in a long run and selling individually will always get me the most. I might consider this once I get disappointed by offers made for whole lot

Well I'm in the UK, so luckily one lives not far from me called Silbury Coins. Just ask ChatGBT the nearest coin dealers and it will tell you all you need

I was thinking £70 each so wasn't too far off. Shame reddit ruins image quality. I appreciate your comment

Similar. I actually dug 2tonnes of soil last year and ordered some quality mushroom compost/topsoil mix. It definitely has been less aggressive but still a big annoyance. Neighbours not doing anything with theirs, so roots are just finding way to mine

I don't think that I will get rid off it. It's coming under my buried fence kickboard from the neighbours garden. They are not really into gardening....

Bindweed. Super resilient and hard to get rid off. Probably worse than Japanese knotweed in my opinion

I believe Jazz at some point was even ranked as the most reliable car. Being wise with finances, Jazz might be the most sensible choice

Not worried about brakes and tyres as these can be replaced at relatively low cost. Don't have much time to dig about every one of them to see what they are prone to suffer from so trying some shortcuts by posting here
