Ok after having the wee man in the car for the first time the other day and finding out he hates it!!!
(Too bumpy/Loud) I'm considering selling it :cry:
Here's the lowdown.....
Mileage has just turned 95k and you know I've looked after it and spent a small fortune on it in the process!!
I've very recently fitted a recon carb, brand new fuel pump and new fuel strainer in the tank.
New dizzy,rotar and leads
2 new front struts and 1 new top mount. Rears are good
New front discs and pads, new rear shoes. (brakes could do with a bleed cos the pedal is a bit soft but they work well!!)
It's also had a recent service less than 200 miles ago.
You know from the numerous threads the amount of work I've put into it
and I'll be gutted to see it go but I'm not prepared to put it back to standard to suit the wee man :lol:
Ask anyone who saw it at biggar how clean this car is, it really defies belief when you consider its 14 yrs old!
As far as mods go...
Its sitting around 60mm lower on Pi springs and standard shocks (could do with shorter struts as the springs unseat when jacked up.)
ATS cups with 4 good tyres
Bump strips removed
Full storm tan leather interior inc door cards
(I've got the matching carpet but didn't fit it because it wasn't in great condition)
Electric windows still to be fitted, will be supplied with car
Front fogs removed
Kamei grill (very rare)
Clear side repeaters
Scorpion backbox
JVC 6 x 9's in the parcel shelf
Brand new Kenwood cd player.
There's loads more that I can't think of just now but I'll add to the thread if I remember anything else
Ok, so thats the good, here's the bad....
The tank needs replaced as it has a hole near the top but I've got a new one which I'd give the buyer with it.
The exhaust is blowing at the join before the back box but I'll be sorting that out anyway.
It needs taxed and the mot is due in august and tbh apart from the tank, there's nothing I know of that it would fail on. Everything works.
This car was bog standard when I bought it in feb so all the cash spent came out of my pocket and it was a fair bit!!
I'm hoping to stay VAG so I'd prefer a swap for something bigger or make me a sensible cash offer
Ok I'm away for a cry, here's the pics....
