for that price with 88k on the clock, id sell it only if i know what i was gonna buy next and if id b happy with it.... if not keep it!!
thing is will someone offer u 3.5/4 k in a years time when its maybe done 90/95 thousand?
difficult one!!
i have had 3 quotes off them lately
£950 for a valver engine fitted and supplied
£1000 plus donor for gtt
£400 supplied and fitted 1.8rsi, but they have none in stock. im currently savin for the 1.8 as its cheaper and i reckon i could afford it ;)
