well i finaly decided to get a new car, needs a few small bits doing to it but it is solid as a rock and ok i payed a bit to much for it but then again its still not to much for one thats only done 58k and has a complete svs history.

heres some pics.





cars a 2.5 CDX with all the bels and whistles including a 6 disk multi changer (will be removed as the radio is gash and i want something that plays MP3's)

payed £1400 for it with 6 months tax to be put on by seller

future plans are to give it a full GSi kit, fit 3.0 cams, free flowing air filter, and full exhaust system (including manifolds) and dropping it by 40mm.

just need to get a quote off tom about fixing a extreamly small patch of rust.

tell me what you think. and where i can find some of the bits i want for the car.

It must have super low mileage to warrant 1400

Why not hire a limo and travel to view cars further away? Still cheaper even with a hooker and some coke

Would it not have been cheaper to buy a GSI from the start?
