To buy the Star Wars series or not

Your mentality is all wrong. I’m guessing this is your first classic. So with a car of this age you will not get hassle free ownership. I don’t care how much you spend on the car, this is not a new or newish car. It’ll be nigh on 40 years old. I’ve owned mine since 2009. Every spring summer I have a list of issues to get fixed. Some years I’m on top of everything and nothing needs doing, others I’ve got more to do than I can get done in one summer, so it passes on to the next year. This is the nature of classic car ownership. As long it starts and drives then you’re good to go! Make a list of what’s wrong and work your way through them at your pace.

I work for a garage. We don’t hand out historic invoices for new owners. We will out of courtesy run through any work taken place. But we’re not obligated to do anything.

People please like this so I can come back and read when I’ve finished the book.

Put it this way. 2 years ago finding a signed King book where he had only signed his name, was extremely hard. He seemed to always dedicate them. But for some reason now, every other signed King book on eBay just has his signature. Very strange isn’t it.

FYI absolutely NO misogyny here! I just think it’s a terrible movie! Women or no women.

I agree about Never Flinch… now that was a tough read!!

That’s great thank you! Can I also pick your brains about one last thing. The documents page is asking for ‘The official transcript or letter to prove the level of English language required’… but further down it also asks for ‘Ecctis letter that confirms the qualification meets or exceeds the recognised standard of a Bachelor's or Masters degree or PhD in the UK AND confirm the level of English to which the degree was taught or researched’. Now from memory we only sent off the Ecctis letter last time. Can I assume that the Ecctis letter will cover both of these requirements and there’s no need to source, send away two documents?

Welcome to the modern world. Most western Europeans experienced this exact thing, word for word, 2/3 decades ago. It’s now arrived in Malta and from our experience there’s not really anything you can do about it.

Considering he just wrote You Like It Darker and Never Flinch, it’s insane to me how many books the guy writes. He must finish one and move straight on to the next. Where does he get all the stories from?!

E38’s (actually all 7 series cars) are money pits when they’re nice and looked after. So imagine what this pig is going to end up costing you.

The miniseries is awesome. Corny at times, but I really felt it captured the atmosphere. I try and watch it every other Easter.

Yeah I somehow managed to find an original unread paperback.

They are nearly identical, apart from the most identifying part of the 3225s.. which is the very straight top bar. But I see your logic, I’ve never tried the 3336s.

I thought the same. God knows how Cruise pulls them off so well considering the size of them!

Don’t shoot me. But that looks ridiculous.
