    Default Need help from Beyonders, LF free or almost free car.

    So our receptionist here at the dealership may have seized the engine on her vehicle. She is the nicest girl in the world and works really hard for us however she doesn't have money for a new car, she has a tough enough time making ends meet with all the high costs involved with living in Calgary. Unfortunately we rarely have cheap trade ins that come in so I'm hoping there is a beyonder on here who has an old vehicle that still runs that they dont have a use for anymore. I remember kevie88 giving away a nice civic a while back so if you have something that is decent and runs that you wouldnt mind parting with for free, $100, $200 whatever, please let me know.

    Thanks guys

    Update
    Due to the overwhelming response of people willing to donate and the difficulty I'm having finding a "free" decent car I will include some information to make it as easy as possible for those wanting to donate.

    Funds can be donated via paypal @ [email protected]
    They can be dropped off at Lexus of Calgary (22 Heritage Meadows Road S.E, Calgary, Alberta, T2h3c1)
    Or they can be mailed to the above address

    If you do drop off the funds I may not always be around or available so please make sure the funds are in an envelope with my name on it:

    Ryan Dandurand

    I will leave instructions with the receptionist to have all incoming mail for me dropped in the safe.

    There is no minimum amount to donate, $1, $100 anything will help, that being said I appreciate everyones help wether you're able to donate money or not.

    thanks everyone

    Ryan

    These are the kind of threads where we as a group can all band together and make a difference in someones life.
    Can you imagine if we all donated even $20 to this person what effect it would have on her and her outlook on humanity?
    I do not have an older vehicle that I can donate but why not start a fund for her?

    Redlyne: I am in for $100.00 towards her vehicle.

    Kudos to Redlyne_mr2 for helping his fellow employee!

    Wow that's great of all you guys, im2fst4u I really appreciate tha cash offer, I feel bad "collecting" money from people and I'm hoping that I can benefit her by finding her a car and benefit someone else by getting an old beater off their driveway. Her Tercel always burnt oil and I should have told her to keep track of the oil but I never did which is probably what caused the engine to seize.

    Edit.. wow some super generous people on here, if you guys would really like to donate you can paypal me at [email protected] , I'm in for $100 and I'll ensure that the money gets her a "new" car or a "new" engine. If I find a car for free I'll refund all the money.

    What kind of car did she drive?

    Possible that a bunch of Beyonders could drop in another engine and get her up and running again?

    So....it's all your fault then? J/K

    PM me and I will arrange with you to collect my donation.

    This thread is going to grow and grow......perhaps we as a group could donate a vehicle to a needy family/person once per year? A new Beyond tradition may have been born!

    Damn, I used to have a beater that my parents gave away too. It ran pretty good too.

    I'll keep my eyes peeled for sure.

    My roommate has a 99 accent parked in front of the house. Hasn't moved in a year.
    I would actually be highly motivated to sell it as how it is my ex's old car. If it were my car, I would give it away for free. lol
    It DOES have a check engine light on
    I will check how much he wants for it.

    Since all the ads have been annoying everyone, we decided to send a donation to the car fund. Good luck on finding her a new vehicle or fixing her current one.

    See guys? Its worth putting up with all the ads!

    HAHA yep I wasn't sure if Kenny wanted to keep the donation quiet or not but thank you kenny as well as Beyond.ca for the generous donation. Our receptionist was in tears when i told her we were all involved with helping her find a new vehicle.
