Someone should offer him the original price, say "WE KNOW WHAT YOU DID" then await the phone call after 3 months because it didn't sell. Still looks mint at least, let's hope the engine isn't shagged.

I'd love to know why having passed through 3 hands the for sale price has gone up by £300.

I think an alternative translation of the new ad should be :-

"Ive bought this motah with the intention of drifting it round and round until its nuts squeak, I've shagged the starter, and ive shagged the ignition trying to start the car with a shagged starter. All the other drift kiddies laugh at me now cos they think it looks like a banana, I've totally lost interest, I can't be bothered to fix it, I want the 650quid to go towards a BMW or a Skyline GTR, so I can trash that as well then sell it for double the price. I still live with my parents who want it out of their garage otherwise they'll dock my pocket money, and I really really want a girlfriend, cos i've got tennis elbow in my right arm, my hand resembles a damp clammy claw, and I've got no imagination left "

This is why I emigrated! To get away from people like that........

Absolutely!

Even though my 360 is a MKIII, I still prefer the older 300's, got a bit more class about them......

It's funny that about early models

imo

the PV444 looks better than the 544
the pre 64 amazons look better than the later models
the Jensen P1800 looks better than the P1800E
the 244 and 245 look better than 240's
the 850 looks better than the s/v70

Certainly the same with Golfs. The older the model, the better they look. :)
