  1. Yea the sunday seems ok, as long as it is not on the same day as other cab club shows.
  2. Right, i see , i have a couple of donor cars outside and they do suffer at this time of year wth exactly the same symptons as your car. Its the british weather i,m afraid unless you use them everyday or put them in a garage they will get damp inside and the seats do go a bit mouldy. I might be an idea if the weather is dry at the weekends to leave the windows ajar.
  3. Happy christmas folks, been a great show season this year, hoping for another good show season in 2015. Regards Ian.

    Good low milage few owners wont come up very often,so realy the car is only worth what you are prepared to pay for it. Would not have thought there will be to many people who are willing to pay out 4.5k so its a buyers market offer 3k as a start and hope to pay around 3.5k. Good luck.
  21. Wow,good on ya m8, looking forward to some more pics as you progress.

    Dilemma

    I agree with stu, wait for something better, £1500 should see you bag a very good one that needs very little doing. Dont rush into buying rubbish cos there is alot of em about.Buying a rough one for £500 will end up costing you 2-3 thousand overall.
  23. Yea strange that, but at least you are ok m8.
