So the supercharged Type R I bought wasn't really what I wanted in the end and a bit too loud, managed to get what I think was a good price for it in light of the new Type R coming out next year and it left last week leaving the money burning a hole in my pocket.
Decided I didn't want another hot hatch so this weekend I travelled to Ireland and bought a car I've wanted for a few years. Car has most of the options ticked from new and has been really well looked after so I figured it was worth travelling for and paying a slight premium on. Had a terrific drive home from Scotland after getting the ferry back and I'm really happy with the purchase. Got a few little things to put right but its in great condition for a 12 year old car.

Needs some Jamie-C shit number plates and to be 1 metre lower. That's how they all do it in Ireland right?
Does look nice though in seriousness. I'm not a Porsche fan in general but it does surprise me how affordable they can actually be. Must have been a nice drive back...until you hit the M6.

Luckily in the two days I was there I didn't too much like that. Led to believe its called "felt spec".

Yes. Know how he looks after his cars so knew I'd be happy with the condition of it.

Thought it looked like Keith's. What has he upgraded to and does he still have his nova let?
just seen the rear quarter window of a nova in the pics above so answered my own question

What what I understand:
It's an OLD diesel with a MANUAL fuel pump turned up as far as it it will go, the car is LOW AS IT WILL GO with cut springs NORMALLY cable tied in
