That's good to know because you never know with these things. He sounded like a good guy. Never met him funnily enough as he was always in work lol. Got a fair price on it I feel. Well you can tell him it's gone to a good home lol.

Post by: munkyboy on May 03, 2014, 03:00:52 am: Just a tickle over 12k which I thought was fair since a standard one I would be looking at £11k I imagine and I wanted one with an apr map. It's saved my pocket a lot of money by getting this one. I was eyeing a stage 2 one on here for a while and when I was ready to buy it, it got sold, the same night I went onto eBay and found this one. It was fate hahaha. The only thing really that was needed on the car were tyres which have been changed now and service and dsg service which I wasn't going to moan about too much. Also the car is gonna get lifted a bit because low does not mix with valley roads, looks nice but not practical for use

Oh sounds reasonable to me, the car does have some great modifications that would save your pocket some money. :laugh:

Post by: munkyboy on May 13, 2014, 01:31:47 am: Yeh I know of Newport edition, never managed to go though because it is my day of work all the time. I rarely get to any of the shows because I have to work weekends.

I got the car in 49k and hasn't done much mileage since. Lol.
