But you hot black leather now G, or is that just in the bedroom?
No offence Steve, but I don't think 1600kg cars with 189bhp interest us here, we can just load up the Clio with half a tonne of cement if we want that! On top of that, Cabrio - Yuck! and Automatic - Yuck, yuck!! Might as well just tell all your friends you don't like driving. Good luck with the Sale though, lots of hairdressers in Worthing/Brighton area.

Apart from Cue passed on the info to his brother
Not everyone wants to drive around every day with their hair alight haha. I've been out buying Tegs today, hopefully that reinstates my cred.... Oh, and I seem to have sold Trophy 208 or #41 in my world so on the march to 50 again.
aye my brother in law hardly gets above 50 mph in his current steed (civic 1.6) and does no miles so a posers car is spot on for him. Plus he's only a young'un so still craves after things like bmw's, bless him lol.

Hee hee, says Cue who was driving around quite happily in his bimmer until he bought a Trophy for the missus. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Sorry Steve, just read my post and it was very rude, I know we're on the same page when it comes to performance cars though so I have to take the piss out of some of the part-exchanges you get left with. Still got that Beetle cabrio? :lol:

Ever changing stock, one minute sold then not. #208 available again, p/x didn't stack up. Funny thing, they are not all p/x's. Beetle cab sold plus identical one straight after. I have just taken in p/x a 02 Vectra SRi 2.2 150 5Dr with Irmsher bodykit, mildly chipped and a new MOT. Thinking around the £3500 mark which is a lot of car for the money.
I have a modded Teg (just the bolt on stuff) coming, so drop by when I get it for a back to back comparison

Certainly will, I love those things but would probably wait for the Japan Civc Type-R to find it's way on the second hand market, they're quicker than the DC-5 on the track and road and have four doors. I also think Emily would find it a little less distasteful.
On another note, if you get a P/X (or other) Five door Focus (Petrol, manual, pref. Silver or black) could you let me know. My sister just dropped a sprog and needs a car with four doors and asked what she should get, I told her the Focus is her best bet (she actually enjoys driving, hence the petrol and manual) and she wants one now. Around the £2-3K mark so probably a 2000/2001 plate. She has an 03 Rover 214i to trade in if preferable.

Just to impress Steve, I've also bought an Audi 2.4 Cabrio Auto. Advertising it in the Hairdressing Age Magazine
Nearly forgot the 2005 350Z Roadster AUTO Tip from Japan that should be here in about a month. Silver Grey with Orange / Black seats - I'm out to impress the above mentioned hairdressers with so much choice.
