    My old car on ebay

    Think what you want but I've been totally honest and have the ebay messages to back what I've said. no I haven't reported him to vosa, mainly because at the moment I couldn't afford to get a cat for it to pass a fresh mot. I have had it looked at by my regular mot tester and he said he would...

    My old car on ebay

    Yep, I told him all about it, it's also why I let it go for only £600. He knew what he was buying, I thought he was going to strip it for parts or fix it up. i also didn't lie about it having an mot or nick the headlights out of it, both of which he's done to me with the clio. mark

    My old car on ebay

    Lol :) i offered £1.99. Honestly, knowing the car how I do I'd say its worth £700 tops. If anyone actually has a good look at it and test drives it they will walk away, I'm just worried he will dupe someone the same way he did me. mark

    Help my headache

    I've been very lucky to pick up a cheep original exhaust so I'm gonna try chopping and changing bits till I get a decent level of noise. I'm hoping changing the straight through middle box back to standard will be enough and I can keep the rear as is. I'd guesstimate 3-5db would be enough of a...

    Bonnet question

    Yeah I think I'm getting it sorted now, I knew it needed a new bonnet though as he did state the bonnet was in poor condition. I've also got quite a few scratches to sort on the rear bumper. Tempted to carbon fiber vinyl wrap the bonnet.... Not sure if it'll look right on a black car though.
