Title: Breaking Elite - Big thanks
Post by: JamesV6CDX on 30 July 2007, 18:40:36
Especially to Dave, Fin and Markie... for persuading me to break the Elite.

DEFINATELY more profit in breaking it.

I have sold 5 or 6 items off the car so far, with LOADS left to sell, and it's all going like hot cakes on ebay, I can hardly keep up with it.

How much do you think I've made so far, selling just 6 items?

3.0 cams - £120
leather - £125
Cats - £65
gearbox switch - £26
Cruise - £66
MID £30

£432.


I still have alloy wheels, rear blind, dim-dip mirror, MFD display stalk, Climate panel, heads, CD changer, mirrors, panels, window conversion kit, camcovers, ecu kit, - shedloads of parts

I'm putting all the ££ in a seperate account, we will see how much it adds up to in the end.

I reckon a grand, if cards are played right...

Well done, what horn do you have, the one on my miggy (facelift dti) sounds a bit noddy carish, if its a beefy one will you be putting it on a buy it now on ebay, if you do give me a pm.

Just to thin out the timewasters, it's all been listed as buy it now, with immediate payment required - so the money is coming straight in!

Is the horn any good, or should I say, does it sound better than the 2.2 facelift DTIs

Good, stuff, James  :y

Shame it has to die really but sadly 2nd hand cars are worth the least when they are working :(

I remember thinking my horn was a bit pathetic the other day when some eejut pulled out in front of me without checking his mirrors mid-overtake >:(

Got a horrible cheap Italian pair of air horns with the Westfield kit. Remember thinking they'd probably fall apart before I had a chance to use them but not so. 7 years later they still make the bu66ers jump right out of their repmobiles ;D
