  1. Mine has got 119k on a w reg and I paid 750 for it and part exed my 200 quid scrapper Peugeot estate on it. I got a few other bits in with it. Authentically mines got no rust but it's full of dents and scratches but we'll looked after maintenance wise so it's swings and roundabouts as to weather you get one with good servicing or good body. If you find one that's got both being well looked after then be prepared to pay a bit more than what most people get theirs for. I was looking for a while and all I saw was the d series autos on the trader or ones that were 200 odd miles way.

    My opinion is go for it but tell him it's gonna cost you to tax it in a week so if he'll take 1050 and half a tank he'd be stupid to say no really

    The sense of achievement you will get for fixing the wheels (quick lick of paint) and fixing the minor rust (another easy fix looking at how little it is) will instantly make you think it's worth a lot more

  2. Very nice deck mate. . Love the seats, steering wheel and how low it is. . Can you give me some more details on the car though. Mileage, history and how much you paid for it. Just want to have an idea as I am looking into buying one.

    It's got 119k on it. The bodywork is a bit shabby but it's nothing I can't fix. I paid 750 for it and got a few spare/ repair parts with it too.

    Not much history to be honest but the guy I got it from I know will have done a few bits to it service/ maintenance wise.

  3. Good start, proper loooowww...

     

    I love the xbox buttons on the key fob, would be better if it was ps3 buttons... ;)

    That can be done too. If I can get hold of another I will make a how to do thread on it.

    Thanks for all the comments guys. And yes she is low but not that low she can't get anywhere. I think it looks awesome but does need bigger wheels but hey got to prioritise things. Need her running sweet as a nut before any tuning commences.

  4. Hi all as mentioned in my newbies thread I've just got back into another aerodeck, however this one being an mc2 as oppose to the old mc1.

    Here's how I got her from the previous owner.

    And when I got her back home.

    Proper filthy but when the weather breaks and I get some free time she will get completely cleaned and detailed everywhere.

    So far she's got ATR recaros fitted.

    Also got a spoon n1 replica to go on and a pipercross viper to be fitted as soon as she's cleaned up.

    Currently running toyo t1r's all round too so she handles beautifully.

    My first mod done is the remote fob now having xbox 360 buttons :D as the original rubbers had gone

    So that's the story to now having owned her for 24 hours haha.

    My list of plans are as follows

    Clean everywhere

    Source the water leak filling the spare wheel well

    Fix the sticky front windows as they are soooooo slow

    Fix all dents and scratches. ( she's not going to win any beauty contests like she is at the moment)

    Service/ poss strip down and replace all seals and gaskets and cam belt, pump etc.

    re bush everything

    Adjustable camber arms

    rear anti roll bar

    Exhaust system

    Spoiler extension (will do a how to on this)

    Eventually go for some more power but undecided on the N/A or forced induction route yet.

    Thanks for looking guys and girls and if you see me around or are ever up in Rotherham/ Sheffield give us a shout and we can meet.
