Well after having to sell my first one early on in the year due to exspecting a baby...
Had the Littlen 6weeks ago and me and the missus decided we wanted another one.
Picked this up today, 85K, T&T Gey backbox, induction kit and kerbed 182 alloys, Few dings
All for the sum of £1400, Not bad considering I sold my last one for £2400!
Pics of said...
Plans are to get the wheels repainted same colour, Get the dings taken out, De-badge the rear, New front badge/grill and coilovers and
smaller front plate to fit in the recess, And general service of most parts!
