Won this yesterday and just picked it up! What do you guys think?

Looks very nice.

Very nice indeed apart from that steering wheel. Suggest looking for a sportsline one as an early purchase.

I agree, I dont see why people want these, do you know how much it is worth?

 

[Sp!ke]

not much - £30 or so.

Looks like a nice buy, congratulations.

For the same money you could have had, maybe a 2008 Peugeot 207 with 80K miles

 

[jgs600]

Thats a lovely looking motor and a good price too.

 

[BTB 500]

Looks nice - well done!

 

[Seamster15]

Very nice and cheap as chips

 

[DanMorgan]

This happened earlier, 275/35/18 tyres arent cheap! May get cheaper 255/35/18 tyres to compliment the wider alloys on the back, rather than covering them in 275's worth of rubber!

How did that happen?

 

[Seamster15]

Looks like its been run while deflated. Same thing happened to me in a 230CE

 

[DanMorgan]

How did that happen?

No idea, may of had a slow puncture, luckily it happened after 200 miles and only a few miles away from my house and at low speed
