He'll be lucky to get £60 for that piece of crap.

While I agree - to be fair to the person, they've probably put a lot of time into it. End of the day, if they like it, it's all that counts  :y


Not when it comes to selling it.

I agree.

I spended £200 on wishbones, front shocks (genuine Vx), and droplinks.
If you added the labour charge, then that would have put my old MIG at £1000 before you included the 4 brand new tyres and 2 sessions at WIM to get the geometry right (another £360 on top).
Add to that the basic crap (air-con regas, coolant change, oil/filter change, etc) and it would have easily hit £1800 at garage rates.

Do you really think I would have pulled £1800 for a January 2000 registered 2.5 CDX Estate?
I don't think so, which is why I sold it for what it owed me.....£1000

If matey thinks he's gonna get anywhere near the money he has spent on that god awful example, then I'd like the name & address of his dealer.........because he's obviously getting far better quality drugs than what I am (in which case, I want some).

Looks more like a Calibra,
is the rear spoiler big enough?
Yellow break calipers,
rear plate light looks like they syole one of a caravan plate is also wonky,
front bumper thingy is squewiff ( not strieght )
I like the exhaust though, dont know why he put it out the front bumper though.

He could not be hung high enough.

That thing raises the bar for Shedness. The rear view had me spluttering my cuppa everywhere.

If he likes it so much why is he selling it? ::)
