the vibe logo looks neat there. I am not a fan of vibe though.

The amount of times Ive done that. spraying up my wing mirror covers, one got dropped on the floor 3 times, covered in grit whilst it was laquering. The other one was done properly first time, the difference in quality is pretty funny :lol:

agreed although thats what i decided to buy first, the gears alright till you start putting a lot of juice through it after that the cones etc started to destroy themselves

haha, well the arosa was gonna be on the stand but cat b damage means its probably not advisable to drive it
(even though i had to haul its ass an mile and a half to a mates engine surging loosing oil and fuel and 2 tyres of the rims)
so basically i'll have to go in the mera if i get it

almera 1.5 N16 elegance
2001
44k
bodywork and interior almost mint
leathers air con electrics etc
long tax and mot fsh
good tyres and brakes
.....
£1400
bargain or what?
 
1400 quid for a N16 with 44 on the clock is a bargain and its a elegance which is ultra rare. I was trying to look for a set of leathers for my car but had no luck for ages. enjoy it mate :-)

well i didnt know that but thats cool
an old couple are leaving the country soon
its been well kept and never ragged
and all the work/services have been done at my dads garage
so we know the full history

anything else different about the elegance i might not know?
