no more stupid offer please - thanks. I will state this again; I do not want to swap for something of less value. I do not want a old commodore i.e VN, VP. I will add cash if something decent of higher value is offered. thanks.

Nah mate not interested in a ski boat. Epitaph it's been decomped for slightly lower compression, as I was planning on running higher boost, adding more timing etc but never got around to it.

Still for sale, have had it back for quite some time. Have had to reset my Iphone so I've lost a lot of people's numbers, if you have previously texted me genuinely please text me once more. Thanks. ---------- Post added 18-12-10 at 15:49 ---------- P.s I am looking for a cash sale, no swaps ATM unless it's a relatively new car.

Will not sell without running gear... If I decide to strip it due to time wasters then I will contact you first. Still for sale 7,500 with 12 months registration, 7,000 with no reg. FIRM. Have spent more than double the asking price on the car. Also, up to swaps for a relatively newer car, but please, no stupid offers.

There is nothing wrong with the car, I even have claims from those who have come to see it about how immac I have kept it and how much pride I take in it. Although, no-one comes through with the goods? All this needs for 300rwkw+ is a tune on 20psi and a manualized valve body which is all the auto is missing, which I'm throwing in with the car anyway! Buuummmmmmp.

No thanks I need something that I can drive on my p's. I've already stated it and I will state it again; I am after something that I can drive legally on my p's that's relatively new otherwise don't bother PMing me. ATM I'd prefer a cash sale and I'm giving this away for peanuts.
