Selling my van :(

[Sham Courtney]

Hey,

I've decided to head home back to Ireland and see how I get on. Over 5 years in NZ and I need a change plus I've missed about 3/4 weddings, and a lot of 21sts, family birthdays, christenings, funerals.

It's too expensive to bring over with me so I've decided to sell Connie!

Put a reserve of $3500NZD so see how it goes. Have had a good few calls and texts since I threw it up this morning!

Might look into buying one at home because they are a great vehicle but we'll see.

Hopefully get some work at home too, that's the big one!

Cheers CHOP!

There is a girl involved in the move home aswell! 



I think you're right about finding another van as good as Connie!

The job situation will be a tough one I have friend looking for something to keep me going for a few weeks (labouring) and I have a phone interview this week for a Electrical Engineering role in Cork so fingers crossed!

Not the greatest time to be going home but I'll get 2 summers this year!

[>>CHOP<<]

HAHA...yes two summers ..you are a lucky fella...ahhhhhh theres always a girl involved...well she will keep you warmer than the van ever would...higher maintainance cost though..so hope you get settled and find a job soon..if your a electrical engineer it shouldnt be so hard....GOOD LUCK

point him in direction of forum as we can sort out any problems he might have and keep you in touch with what happens to connie

[Sham Courtney]

I passed him on the details and he sounded keen on having a look, will see.

Great to be back in the Emerald Isle, got offered a Electrical Engineering job in Cork City so everything is falling into place, on the look out for a Ford Focus now

Good stuff
Thanks for the advice on my van

All the best back home

All is going well in Ireland, working hard and staying out of trouble!

Bought a 2004 Ford Focus TDCi with 103,000 miles on the clock. She is a goer!! ha!
