  3. Surely as her boss they should keep thoughts like that at home. All jobs pay maternity and I wouldn't be happy with the bare minimum (if i was pregnant )

    I like your site shaf.
  9. 9290 sounds like quite a good deal. But 9k would be much nicer
  10. He doesn't mention its been crashed repaired for a start. Then he says he blew it up in a month and their is still a switch in the glove box that cranks the boost up. And it needed a new gear box. And all this was at 78000 miles. Bad news i'd say.
  11. I'd stay away myself as I don't know enough about cars to tell how well its been fixed. A crash repaired is a definate no in my book.

    ^^TBH I usually leave it on and it does flash after changing gear.
  14. Can't really see any other Uk's on autotrader to compare. Massive brakes on it! I doubt he'd go under 9k but its worth a try I guess.
  15. ^^Lol My Old History Teacher Used To Write Like This With Capitals For Every Word, Apparently They Used To Do It Years Ago In Latin Or Something???

    I think a rolling road session calls for my motor.
  17. Haha maybe a repost but I haven't seen it before! Is that a serious chat show?

    Yeah fair play if it is, I just heard it was quicker from rolling start. Isn't the supra suppose to be 4.9 to 60???
  19. TBH the garage is probably going to be loyal to the customer who gave them all the cash for a rebuild so they would say its good. But if they seem a respectable company you have no reason to think the work isn't good. I wouldn't worry about stamps in the book if he has receipts etc. Lumpy idle sounds normal ignore that. I hate buying a new car because I'd get too excited that I want that car and not make sure its the best possible deal I could get. What you need to think is whats it worth and could you get a cheaper, better looked after car elsewhere. Whats his reason for selling it straight after a rebuild? Remember he's trying to sell it and he probably doesn't have many buyers as they will be put off by the warning light and high mileage. If I was you and had checked out the car properly and it was he says it is. And the warning light will be a simple fix i'd offer him what a standard one would go for. Maybe 9k and then just don't seem interested if he says no at first. He's probably struggling to sell it.

    My mate has recently brought an MR2 Turbo T Bar. From what i've read they are quicker than my manual TT on a 1/4 mile but not from a rolling start. However we have had a few duels recently all from 2nd geat and i'd say their dead even. Maybe mine slightly quicker in 4th gear. All I have is front decat so standard performance and all he has is a Cat-Back exhaust. Does this sound right? I don't have a boost guage so I can't tell what BAR im at.
