Newbie- to buy or not to buy..?

My car would probably fit this bill its having a rebuild at the moment at carls so not too far from you, why dont you go down and take a look.

It has crack in the front bumper after an arguement with a water bottle on the motorway. It would be the sort of money you are looking at spending. You can just see it in the pic

Price is negotiable as i have a set of standard rims in black too. The engine bay is fully polished too.

Hey Dean,
Yep, that picture isn\'t showing up on my computer at the minute. Everything gets filtered through our IT department so some stuff gets blocked. Any chance you can send the/some pictures to either mark.hutt@dataselect.co.uk or markamuffin@aol.com please?

deanflowers · March 12, 2008, 03:58:54 PM

emailed both just in case

Hey Dean,
Got the pictures, so thanks again for that- will try and sort out to have a look at it while it\'s having the work done!

FD3S, I messaged you using Pistonheads. Car looks great, if you\'ve got any more info/pictures could you send them to the email addresses i gave above please? Would also like to take a look at it, but i think Yorkshire might be a bit of a stretch. Where abouts in Yorkshire are you?

Thanks guys,
Mark :Thumbs-up

HI Mark

Sorry for not getting back sooner dude, I got sent to do some training by work.

The car is in Doncaster and not too bad to get to by train? If you book a ticket now then tis mucho cheaper and easier for you to come n see. Besides that the car doesnt have any road tax or MOT till i get paid at the end of the month.

it might be a good idea if you came to see it when that is done?

I have lots n lots of pics on my computer at home. I will upload them to a memory stick / cd and send it to you in the meantime?

I will try and make a little video as well if you want to see it starting up from cold / warm? Email me your address and i will send it to you?

What other kind of information do you want to know like?

I will email you this in case you dont remember to check back here

Hi guys,
Hope you had a good weekend. Sorry i haven\'t replied sooner; still struggling with connection. They\'ve restricted our internet at work so i\'m having to use my mate\'s. :rolleyes:

FD3SNuttah, cheers for the email. Couldn\'t open that link- i email you earlier today explaining (complaining) about why etc..!!

Dean- i didn\'t get a chance to see carl/the car. My schedule\'s looking pretty busy but i\'d love to see the car if i can work some space. I know pictures never do them justice. Have you had any news on the car? Everything going alright?

Jit · March 17, 2008, 09:58:13 PM

I dont know if its the sort of thing you are after, but Im selling a 1993 K FD for 2995 ovno at the moment. Im only selling it for that as thats what it owes me. Only real bad point with the car is the diff mount needs doing. Engine feels strong however and hasnt let me down.

No i havent had any news but its only been a week and i think he is fitting it in between other work as and when he is quiet which is fine. Not exactly in a major rush for it as i\'m using another car. I will leave him to it till the end of the week and ask how its going if you like.

MarkoFu · March 18, 2008, 01:47:54 PM

Hi Jit, could be the sort of thing i\'m after- i\'m trying ro keep my options open at the minute

Got any pics?

Dean- yeah, just keep me updated. I\'m definitely keen to have a look!

Cheers!
