Not a problem, you can come and go as you want. We will be in the field right ahead when you come through the main gate.

Congratulations bud.

About time this was sorted, the roads are an absolute disgrace.

Someone else worth talking to is R35LEE, he repairs the bose systems so may be able to help you out.

Let me know so I can get the planks ready Craig

Mike has been busy with off topic stuff Paul but he will be there.

You can still pop over to Wales for a chat

Another tip, if you think one zed looks good then they look even better in numbers.

Nice one Paul, a good result.

Happy hunting.

I spend thousands on the car anyway so the running costs are insignificant. Its not really high maintenance, once you factor in the fuel cost and general servicing then thats about it. The temptation to modufy is your worst problem.

Mieleage isnt really a problem if the service history is good. There are a few on sale on the forum at the moment so you have a good budget.

If it helps Amy, I would settle for getting the car back first ( from the mags point of view) At that stage they have plenty of options. Kicking off with the garage at this stage would just slow the work down even more. Just my opinion.

Hi and welcome to the forum. Thats a fair budget so you should get a good car for it.

It just proves that there are some good dealers out there, its just a matter of finding them.

Congratulations on a nice find.

The meets will be kicking off soon some come along and be convinced.

Make a weekend out of it and I will give you my DIY list too.

Oooo you mean ian ian !!!! Im with you now. If you get a chance mate have a look for me I will have a look when I am home. ( Thursday). Come and pick it up and I will keep you busy.

Its from his old car, (IanS16) He took my old bonnet but then killed the car. Dont worry I struggle to keep up with his bonnets too.

To be honest I havent had a good look at it. Drop Ian a pm. Its not trashed so may be worth a look.

I still have Ians old one on the garage roof, you can have it if you fancy fixing it.

I bought an ex demo roadster and didnt really worry. I got it at a good price. One think I would check very closely is the paintwork, the young lad at the dealers will have scrubbed it after ever viewing. AS bit of wax can hide a few scratches. I have very thin paintwork on mine, if you can get a paint guage take it along.. Depends on the dealer though, some are good.

Have a look in the servicing section bud. They are 9k or 12 months. P1, P2 and P3. The schedules are in there with costs around the country. We get better deals than those who live further south. CS will say Hi soon, he does servicing so he can give you a guide on costs. edit, Damn too slow.
