rusty scuttle? I'd love to see it with it's kit off!

My moneys on he's bought it due to it being lower mileage than his other one, then had it checked out and shat himself over how much work it really needs! If it's lower mileage than his other one and has the interior he want's, why wouldn't you keep it?

I bought this car with the intension of giving it some time and small effort to bring it back to showroom condition. It requires very small amount of work, and once done will be a stunning car.

I have another which is identical which I have owned for 5+ years which is in amazing condition, I just can’t bring myself to sell it. The reason for me buying this car was due to it having less owners then my current car, and having the rare sought after beige leather interior with beige carpet which is in immaculate condition which is what I have always wished for.

......


if that interior spill was true, 1- is beige leather sought after :roll: 2- if he has another and had always wished for beige leather, hed merly swap the interior over.

the 1st paragraph, indicates he got a bit bumped and its worse than he knew/thought and wants rid pronto.

then the "ive seen them for £8000-£12000 - just confirms hes a c**k sucker.

lol 'c*ck sucker' is a harsh description. Could be genuine but yeah I agree, if you always wanted a car with certain features why would you just sell?!

the car is located in a bodyshop and he has welcomed people to come and inspect the car.

so anyone interested should really take his advice and go and check it out

Seems like a nice enough car.. Perhaps he wants to keep his first one because he conceived his son/daughter in it...

What I find amazing is that he states his telephone number and then complains about the calls! :mad:

Remove the number - easy!

Putting your number up on ebay is a very silly thing to do, you are just asking to be harassed by the scum of the earth :(

which would mean you knew a bit about them, meaning you wouldnt go out and buy one worse than the one you already have to then put it straight up for sale....

unless you found out iot was a pile of turd, or you did something dastardly like swapped your ropey engine etc with the nicer one ..

It's upto the guy which one he wants to sell. He may hav ehad the other one for a long time and be attached to it?
Does look lovely I have to say but I don't agree with mint e30 325sports fetching £8k+ just yet
