Pete Posted February 2, 2009 Report Posted February 2, 2009 It's subject to VAT, so £345,000 at the present rate or £352,500 when it goes back up again.By contrast the asking price of The Terrier is £500,000 plus VAT, but they will consider all offers.I'd say The Lion is generally a much better and more valuable location, but don't know how the sites compare from an actual pub income point of view.£500,000 plus VAT plus the price of reparing the walls around the car park, the last time I went passed there they were falling down.

Every other month you get a car hitting those walls, they might as well just give up and knock them down completely.
Pete Posted February 3, 2009 Author Report Posted February 3, 2009 Every other month you get a car hitting those walls, they might as well just give up and knock them down completely.Are these cars leaving the car park or are they just passing?
Blank Posted February 3, 2009 Report Posted February 3, 2009 Are these cars leaving the car park or are they just passing? I'd be worried if they were leaving the Terrier and then smashing into the walls!Nah, it's normally caused by t*** pots who think a 30mph road surrounded by houses and that runs past a green where kids play football instead of bricking windows, is for doing 70mph on because it's a nice long bit of road. Then they get to the corner and wonder why they've ended up through a wall.

Pete Posted February 6, 2009 Author Report Posted February 6, 2009 Saxo VTR man, belta and that.DId you ever get rid of the custard pie
Denzel Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 DId you ever get rid of the custard pie Finally sold it via Carcraft Pete, got almost £3k for it so I was more than happy. Mind you it had new inlet and exhaust valves, fanbelt and exhaust so it was as good as new. Still not a patch on my 'sportscock' though.

Still not a patch on my 'sportscock' though.Considering getting a new one myself as mine is nine years old this year, I have always bought Vauxhall but I am not mad keen on the new Astra shape. Mind you it has only done 53,000 in nine year, the biggest millage it clocks up is when I come to Bedlington as its roughly 215 miles from where I live.

Can you not walk to the shop like?
Malcolm Robinson Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 Hang on a bit Pete, you might be getting a new car with a packet of cornflakes soon!

Pete Posted February 8, 2009 Author Report Posted February 8, 2009 53,000 in 9 year? Can you not walk to the shop like? I live approxamatly one mile from the Park and Ride so theres two miles a day as I use this service monday to Friday, much cheaper that taking the car into the city centre. Don't use it much more than that really apart from shoping and the likes.Usally clock up near a thousand miles when in Bedlington as I like to get around visiting places, mind you that includes getting to Bedlington and back home.
