WELL IT IS LOOKING LIKE THE GUY WHO WON IT ON EBAY AINT GUNNA SHOW, SO IT IS UP FOR SALE AGAIN, IT FINISHED ON EBAY FOR £1420 SO I OFFER IT UP TO EVERYONE ELSE FOR THAT! STUPIDLY CHEAP


Well i picked this car up a few months since, with the intention of giving it to the girlfriend to drive, decided it wasnt such a good move as she does alot of rush hour miles, and it would only drive her mad!

So its up for sale

The good bits:

Ive given it a complete strip down from when i bought it, everything checked over and cleaned up!
Interior is in good condition too


Bad Bits:

Well the car has had alot of owners, on the V5 it says 15, i remember this car from years ago, it was originally red, then some numbnuts sprayed it matt black, then someone bought it and painted it blue.

To be honest the paint job is not bad at all, it still comes up good with a polish, but it has been sat for the last year and aquired a few scuffs.

Id rate the bodywork as 6/10 as i am picky, i will try and get pictures of the scuffs, the sunroof could do with repainting as it has scuffs as someone didnt mount it right, i have mounted it correctly now, and i also have a tub of touchup paint, and can to sort that

i would strongly recommend viewing it to see exactly.

All in all this is now a nice car, personally i love the colour and bumper contrast, it is nice!

i will grab some more pictures, but here is a few

im putting it up at £1900, now £1700 due to landlord on my case

bearing in mind the work and new parts i have replaced (£500), all the parts a mk3 normally needs, have been done, especially that petrol tank!

Location is Huddersfield, any questions about the car please post on here, PM me if you would like to come and see it

I dont think the pictures do the colour justice really. It looks very flat on a PC screen.
