Got the wheels from Gemrnay via Dubmeister website, they are something else in the "flesh", the pics really dont do them justice.

Thats is my real number plate, the police are none too keen on it though, so the back one is totally legit, with a legit front one for "road use"  ;)
I don't own this anymore - I just can't be arsed to change the picture

I don't think there is any doubt about mine being worth more than I paid for it ;)

Rich, you got one hell of a bargain with yours mate, but I dont reckon you can put a price the amount of love and work you put into your cars.

Cheers Ads, hopefully I'll be saying the same about my mk1 GTI tin-top in a few years time...........can't really go wrong being that I didn't pay anything for it ;)

I hope you are right Adam, I paid slightly over the odds for my Rivage last year, but the cabs do seem to be holding their money these days  ;D
I keep an eye on autotrader every week for rivages and sportlines but I dont think they are quite up to the prices of the specialised magazine prices.........yet  :D

Nice looking sportline by the way  ;D

hi

this thread has really got me thinking!!!!! my mate about 5 years ago bought an absolutely mint 90 gti cabriolet!!! which in looks was is the same kit as adams red one!!!

over the years it has had a few srapes and bumps and he recently rolled into someones tow bar!!! so it is is need of going to the body shop really to be sorted!

no wthe best part hes looking at scrapping it or selling it on for next to nothing!! ie about ?500 i reckon its an 8v and is in the mettalic royal blue colour! after reading this thread i think im gonna invest in this car and sort it out as it runs fine and make it into its former glory once again!!!

what you think???

me thinks im gonna give him a bell i reckon!

i might even get it for free as he was talking of scrapping as he doesnt think its worth anything!!!! the car is straight as but needs some cosmetic loving to sort it!!!!!! bit of paint here!!! new bumper.... oh and it has no rust!! and has a new hood
