Title: Yet another
Post by: Elite Pete on 22 April 2010, 17:54:26
Just got back from the Principality after picking up yet another project car but luckily this one doesn't need much doing to it. Its a Facelift 3.0 Elite in Midnight Black metallic and it looks stunning. Its got all the toys, leather and Sat Nav now the problem is do I keep it for myself or do I service it and put it up for sale as I originally intended, cant make my mind up. Anyway some pics ;)

Glad you got it okay Pete! :y

Sorry that I wasn't about today (as already explained), but that's the law of the sod mate!
Being a local car, I don't recognise it however. ;)

Any other time, then the kettle will be in full steam :y

Can you make a healthy profit on it now? It maybe nice but, will you still be able to make the same profit soon?  :y

That was not a deposit, that was the total amount, including interest over 60 months...... ;D ;D
To let you make even more profit you can replace the 'sweaty bum' leather and put some nice plush cloth seats in.......... :D :D :D  Deal????

Well, she almost ready for the road now. I have spent the last two days fitting an ABS ECU, power steering pump, thermostat, rad removed and cooling system flushed, all the filters have been changed, new oil, cam cover gaskets replaced, breathers cleaned, and 6 new plugs. All i've got to do now is collect the new 6 spoke latest MV6/Elite alloys and get it mot'd and it will be up for sale ;)
