Title: 8.32 saved from the scrapper Post by: HF_Dave on 16 January, 2011, 08:52:26 PM I Heard about a Thema 8.32 that is to be traded-in on the goverment scrappage scheme. I went to see it this morning, it turns out to be an exellent example, The body work is perfect and the engine runs very smoothly with no noises or rattles. The clutch feels good , the only thing is the ie warning light flashing on the dash. I made an offer and it was accepted. I'll post a few pictures when i get it home, I mean sneak it home. (She dosen't know about it yet) ::)

And it's blue. Being a gentelmen's forum, I am unable to convey my next thoughts.... ;D Title: Re: 8.32 saved from the scrapper Post by: Duncan23 on 11 February, 2011, 07:56:41 PM Wow. That's absolutely beautiful. So glad you saved it, so hard to believe someone would scrap it.
Title: Re: 8.32 saved from the scrapper Post by: HF_Dave on 18 February, 2011, 11:38:30 PM I was very lucky to get the Thema, Kevin Mc Bride put me in touch with the mechanic who looked after the car. I spoke to him and he diden't want to see the car scrapped, he passed my number on to the owner, I diden't expect to get the call but I did, as usual just over Christmas no money ect, bit I had to go for it. I am a jammy sod ;D
