Which one?!

One's 18, low mileage and needs running in a bit.
One's 25, meduim mileage, cracking bodywork, good trim and, er, fantastic ride
One's 40, but the best cared for - Many previous owners - high recent mileage mostly clocked up by me - will keep going forever.

Make your choice...

Very nice looks clean but it could do with some alloys  ;)

Can I get a test ride er i mean drive on 25?  ;D

LSG1 - It should have alloys but i have the feeling he swapped them for a full set of brand new tyres some time ago  >:(

Should't really affect its sale value...

Should't be too bad, no side airbags to worry about just the pretensiors

Mrs TheBoy's brother tests car safety and durability etc for a living. That means crashing cars and setting off airbags all the time. Now thats my idea of a job - non stop destruction :D

I was told when I fitted my seats that if goes off it could take your head off, whether there is any truth to it i dont know but I took the necessary precautions anyway.

Good Luck with the seat removal I had fun with one of the seat floor bolts and in the end needed to drill it out as the head of the bolt didn't like the star bit I was using.
