need something cheap for uni, big service coming up
and rego
needs tyres soon,

[adrian13]

well fellas its been fun
but the tdi is up for sale,
I'm looking at buying something boring with under 100,000kms on it
lancer, pulsar etc
spending about 5000 on it,
pocketing the change.
ill miss her

:O im lost for words..

[jamie88]

Hmm

It depends on timing too. Rego is due in 8 weeks. If I have to pay for rego before it sells it's probably worth me keeping it. ... I'll see how things go. But a decent offer comes along and bye bye it goes

[jamie88]

looks surprisingly good on stockiess. humph
anyway, is for sale. if i can't get 9000 for it ill keep it.

looks like im swapping a nice fella for his 02 lexus is200.
his has 150kms compared to my 225km
his is all serviced up and hhas 4 new 18" tyres,
has 4 clarion speakers, amp, and sony dvd player etc,
looks like a very nice car. checking it out tommorow then it might be so long for now.... until i can afford a gtd or a gti or something
lexus has better trade value too
will be nice for a change, going to miss all my torque and piss cheap fuel economy though.
ah well, you only live once !

Haha who cares, as long as its held in place.

[jamie88]

Yeah it's pretty tight. And if I trim the engine cover a little it'll go back on and look OEM-ish

Wow... Just came across ur build thread and how u close to selling ur car. Exciting thread!

Did u color code ur rough plastic bumpers urself too or it was sent to a body shop?

[jamie88]

I colour coded them myself. High full primer. Lots of sanding. The. 2 pack silver and 2 pack clear

[HaywireTig]

I'm amazed at how you color coded the plastic parts urself! Any guides or tips? Tools like spray gun, air compressor....?
