Nickyb, you still want the wheels?? Theyre only 4 months old (wheels and tyres) so are pretty much as new!
Theyre 15s but not sure what make or style. Only reason I want rid of is coz I want to get the car back to standard as poss!
PM me if your interested.
No its not, but might still get one just for the laugh!
Seen one on ebay a few days back that went for £185 still had some motty and tax, so just for the crack, and to piss a few certain people off, Tom you know who im talking about, I might still buy a "torching car" for sacrifice!
Made my mind up and ive told the bloke tonight that im going to have it!
So as soon as i collect, not sure when, ill be the owner of a nice RSi, yiiiiiiiipppppyyyyy!!!:D
Cheers Paul. Yeah, I know the crack as far as the performance differences between the valver and the RSi, have had both from new in the past.
Just want this car for a bit of track day fun, but didnt really want to spend as much as this but, hey, its only money i suppose.
Thanks for all your help peeps.
Found out the car has had only one previous owner not two, its on the second owner now. And that it a 1996 not a 1995 so i guess this is reflected in that price!
Think im gonna go for it but there could be a divorce looming:(
£1400 bottom line!
He wont go any lower, he had it up for £1500 so ive knocked him down £100 already!
So by the sound of it you guys think its a bit pricey??
Not sure, misses is giving me a bit a grief but it does look/sound good!
Any other feedback. Come on peeps, help!
Only mods are...
Been offered a 1995 RSi for £1400.
12 Months MOT, service history, 2 previous owners, 101k on the clock, no tax left, metallic blue, body work pretty good condition and so is the interior!
So is this a good/fair/poor price?
Any coments please, and quickly coz I think the bloke is keen to...
Rated third in EVO magazines "car of the year test", cant be bad!:D
I know this is only journos opinion but even so it was pipped to the post by some very stiff competion.
Cant wait for my new Mk2 now, love the Mk1 but its time to move on and waste some more money in most peoples eyes!:p
MPG:
Best ever 32.4, this was on a motorway journey, at speeds of around 60-80mph.
Worst ever 8.9, this was after the last track day I did at Curborough.
It, as always, depends on how heavy you right foot is!
y0z2a blew a whole in his catalytic converter when we did the Curborough track day. Thankfully it was his last outing at the end of the day!!
Think he managed to get it fixed under warrenty though, and his cups done over 35k, so you wont have any probs getting them to sort yours out!
Not sure about this?!?!
Size: maybe overall, but the boot and rear leg room in the new mini is non-excistant!
Price: Cooper S with a Hartge conversion, eeeeerrrr, alot more than £14800?
