You thinkin of sellin Hurdy?
If so, Im interested!!!!


Im going to see the one I mentioned on page 1 tomorrow.
The seller says it has 3 scuffed alloyrs, and 2 minor marks on front bumper. Here are the pics I received...





How much do you think these would cost to sort out??

He says if its not too much I can either get him to sort it and pay full asking price, or knock a little off if I want to sort it myself.....not sure which to go for as I dont know how much it would cost to repair!

Am deffo interested in the car though...... ;)

The one Im looking at tomorrow is a manual......just wanted a rough estimate on how much the repairs would cost, or whether i should let him do it and pay full asking price of £14,750......

The bumper marks - are they scratches in the paint?

Rims probably £50-150 per rim depending on the finish and severity (you need to ask a specialist really). I have been quoted £400 for all four rims but mine are a lot worse than that.


EDIT: As for DSG v Manual, only you can make that decision. I have a manual and there are times when it's great fun and times when you wish you had DSG (like going really fast round some sharp bends - you need both hands on the wheel!).

I'd be shocked if that were the case as he's spent ££££'s on modding it.... probably easy over  £10k worth of mods on the car.  You better keep hold of it John otherwise, the Mod Squad will be very upset with you  :grin: :grin: :grin:
