just make sure you read up a bit on how to keep it nice too, nothing worse than a swirl marked car, I did this on my last one through improper technique and it looked terrible until I machine polished it all and then rectified how I washed it! but when clean and even, BG is amazing in sun light
well you said you like BG, AB and RB, take a look through some project threads and narrow it down, I was set on BG until I looked though some titanium threads and then I totally changed my mind, but at the end of the day no one can really influence your decision! All I would say is BG will be...
Not as bad as me getting told by a bike mechanic that that the engine out of a yamaha r6 was in the fiat abarth 500's... I couldnt even be bothered to pass comment
Well this was my way of looking at it, didnt really feel it was a stupid question but I will just leave it now lol and just go down and give it a go!
fingers crossed I will have a new car Sunday
yea loads of paperwork and fsh, paying for an inspection isnt a bad idea actually, my dad would usually accompany me (mechanic) however is quite ill at the moment so thats out of the question
thanks anyway all
well I wasnt gonna, it was an idea that then just got me wondering, so was just wondering if its actually legal, tbf its not really a bad idea, just slightly pyscho is all, if I had got shut of my old car and I knew of any issues I would happilly tell a possible buyer what I know, after the...
right, forget the size issue, im just paranoid as the car has changed hands alot of times is all. And was wondering if I could call the previous owner and say "why did you get rid in such a short space of time" and what I mean was that if he said "it was too small for me" then I would be fine to...
I was just using it for an example of a reason he might of sold it, other than problems with the motor
lol like I would turn up and say "I dont want it as he sold to get a larger car" haha
I want to make sure he didnt just change due to a size issue, and exclude any issues with the car is all! its a 2.30hrs drive, so I want to just text and say can I ask about your previous car, and hopefully find out he didnt change due to a problem I might miss! Like I said its had 5 previous...
Hi all, found a really nice 182 for sale, it's had everything done at the right time etc, immaculate condition, low miles (62k) but has had 5 previous owners, now the last owner had it from feb 2010 and I said do you remember what he exchanged it for, he thinks a type r, now that would make...
yea tbh looking at ones now over 60k even ones at just 70k I can now see how some are really, really overpriced! im going to see 2 this weekend now, both for less than £3500 and coming with FSH, belts done etc, when your without a car you just get desperate lol
could of been sooo much worse, my old car roof got 3 slates fall on it and one night, all luckily landed flat not on the edge, still did alot of damage though, and about 10 years ago my sister had a mint original mini cooper written off after 2 slates and a brick decided to jump on it
No I totally agree with all, and with that Im going to go and view one quite local to me on 76k this weekend, like you said mileage is just a number if car has been maintained, plus prices are alot lower! Will give him a bell tomorrow! Thanks for all the help, gonna give the one in Lincoln a miss
Mike_rs I would have yours in a heartbeat but with only £3600 at my budget I'm afraid I can't :(
Thanks cookson but both cup packs is a box I definately want ticking!
Well I might still go and pay this guy a visit as he did say there was no damage from the aux belt snapping
Problem with me is...
Tbh I though it was good value for its miles and a fsh, both cup packs and apparently only one scratch worth mentioning on the bodywork, you don't think it's good value? It will be a good 2.30hour drive for me so if it's a let down (again) I will be out of pocket due to petrol getting there
