V6 Bumper Suprise

[TheRoninV6]

Got my V6 back today after my little incident with the kerb lol

anyway to my amazement i was only charged £297+Vat for the v6 front bumper. Obviously fitting and painting was extra.

New Front Subframe
New Front Bumper
New Front tyre
Left suspension arm
Left side arch liners
All because of a little un in with a kerb at about 8 miles an hour, after sliding on some ice

Got charged £227+Vat for the front tyre inc fitting, which i thought was expensive, the repair company used kwik fit mobile tyre fitting for this.

yeah . i was surprised at bumper price too .. so much so i have decided to buy a new one as previous owner put a nice small crack right in middle . must have hit a stone or summat ..



Then sadly off she goes to market .. just as i get side pod fitted !! would have gone to le Mans in it this year but lost me job and not likely to get another paying as much as i was getting, so regrettably Very regrettably she has to go .. will be looking for 19.5 k which aint bad ..spread the word !!

Just to top it off renault garage has given me a fukkin fiat cinquecento to bzz around in .. how sh*te is that .. from one end of the scale to the other !!

whats your trade Vee6? just wondering what job you had before. Somebody should snap that up at 19.5k

process commissioning engineer .. pharmaceutical stuff .. got paid mileage ... so bought a banger. did circa 1100 miles a week !! that paid the HP with ease !!

will take the plate off and sell seperately .. V6 TUY .. bent the U a bit to make it look like an O ..(V6 TOY) no trouble with coppers as yet

also got 2 brandnewish rear rims and a Caron Dynamics airbox too .. all will be sold seperately..

Probably endup going back to my 280 bhp Leon Cupra R .. Just missed out on buying my old one back .. was on forecourt for months and months .. no idea why it didnt sell ..was totally mint with lots and lots of money spent
