Thanks mate. After going for a spin in it today I really don't want to get rid of her, I just don't drive her much incase she gets damaged in anyway! Sad I know but couldn't bear hitting her not after she's been so well looked after all these yaers!

Just been browsing trying to find a price guide but not having much luck.

 

If you've got the space then I'd hold onto it, looks a cracker :) lucky to have it IMO.

 

Either that or run it up to Edinburgh and leave it in my driveway ;)

Two TT Supes; mine the Hardtop and the other a Aero top (Brian's)

1998 Audi A6 Tdi chipped to 140bhp, used as my work vehicle. Now has done 126000 mile and is still going strong! ( does approx 45 mpg)

Brian's would be the local bus into and out of the City.:violin: :rolleyes: Occasionally his or my supe! :thumbs: :cool:

Just been offered a Calibra V6 for £600... might just be my next "other" car

I had one of them - 2 types of head were fitted, a GM head and a Cossie head. The GM head blows - check for mayonaise in the water expansion box.

Vauxhall Shite have no means of identifing which engine production nos had the Cossie head

Lancia Delta Integrale (No 12 in the Channel4 all time list!) :D

 

Monza red, 16V, 1990 (G) with 150,000kms

 

It's chipped to run at 1.4 bar which makes it bloody rapid for a small car (approx 260bhp). 4WD, but £1k per year in maintenance bills

 

My supra is the 'daily runabout', which I decided to get when I thought the Grale was not really going to be an everyday car. (I'm sufferring the cost of the ..er.. cost ever since!)

 

Most people don't look twice at it, but you often get double takes from those in the know :D

lol yep I've had the turbo and the 16v. Decided not to get it coz he pushed the price up to £900 (still a steal). CBR600 I think it is next
