was told it was standard?!?! :laugh:
-
looks f**kin wicked! better than i was expectin to be fair :tongue:
cabs are the way forward....an joe i need rims, sort it out son
-
850 squid :shocked: Looks and sound like the bargin of the century :cool: Whats wrong with it???? Big holes in the floor? Big holes in the roof??? No engine!!!!??? :grin:
Stu
-
VERY nice han
sure ya lovin the roof down winter effect
-
mechanically its sound, with recent clutch, cambelt, water pump, fuel filler neck.
bad points, bit grubby - needs hoovering, no heater matrix but its booked in for one! (been removed in the past but pipes are connected to each other so no leaks!
and i have a slight fuel leak when i brim the tank, s that cud be the over flow!
tbh its a bargain!

Its got no roof! bloody silly cars these cabriolets. Dont know what your thinkin han :tongue:
Actually, it looks quality. Pleased youv got what sounds like a goodun. Enjoy!
-
deffo a bargain..looks better than ur description..was expecting summit cacker.. :laugh: :smiley:
Dinx :kiss:
-
Does look like a bargain. I doubt the fuel leak is the overflow because as far as I know, there isn't one. I've always been able to fill mine to the very top with the old filler neck and the new one. If it's when you brim it then I'd get them to check the fuel filler neck. Do you know if they put on a cab filler neck or have they used a tintop one and had to clip it together as they are different sizes ?
-
its gettin looked at tom,
diane ye of little faith!
-
no..i just thought after those ones you had shown me previously and with you havin all that money burning a hole, you would buy one of the nicer ones..
i mean those you have mentioned before, be a little bit dearer, have sounded nicer than this one..
that last black one you said you were goin to see looked uber :cool:
Dinx :kiss:
-
yep and i bought it!! :) :grin:
-
no..not that one! that one you showed me a pic of! m3 style rear lights etc..
Dinx :kiss:
-
was that the j-reg one? ohh the one that was wayo expesive... nice but i was already done, wanted something i could do! :smiley: well jon could do for me! :smug:
-
but i thought you had the cash?! :undecided:
always costs mroe to do stuff urself than to buy summit with things already on..
but if ur doing it to u taste..fair play.. you having a dub project?
Dinx :kiss:
-
:afro:
-
i must admit from how you described it it looks much better than what i thought!
you decided what you are going to do with your money from your driver yet?
-
Finally Han :D looks like a decent set of wheels for that money good haggling :)
-
who did the negotiating?
-
looks better than i imagined...... get that filler neck/fuel tank prob sorted, on 1 of my old mk1's i fitted a new filler neck and it still leaked when over half full.... tank was rotten....., also id make sure all is watertight espesh round the fusebox/windscreen area otherwise you will get eleccy probs in the winter months....
looks good though, just hope its as reliable etc as what your expecting it to be...
:cool:
-
FINALLY!!!! im happy for ya han it looks awesome. you will be pimping it at the shows next year i bet you cant wait. :cool:
-
going in to get checked over tomorrow on fuel tank and neck, new matrixfitted, and theywill have alook at clutch asreverse is tempramentaland sometimes pops out! but it has had a new box within the year!
i did the negotiating, he toldme wanted £1200 i rangdadwhosaid dont gomore than 750 so i offered him 700 knowing damn well i was guna ignore dad, he said 900, i said 750,he said900 (phonecall to dad no 2 - dad said no more than 750 again) so i offered the guy 800, he said900, i said 850 and he smiled, i ripped his arm off and thenranginsurance company beforegiving him cash!
