Back to a GTV V6
Discussion
Sold my first about 4 months ago, lost the affection for it following an electrical problem that took about three months to trace and rectify.
Missed having one so this evening I have bought quite a rare rare car - Phase 2 V6 registered in 2004.
Vela blue, tan leather, refurbished 17" Teledials, new tyres, FSH, recent cambelt / water pump and only 56k from new
Can't wait to pick her up now

Congrats - I have had 2 in the last 8 years and am sure if I ever have enough garage space again I will get another as a weekend toy - finding a good one is the hardest part (and then there was the frozen locks in winter, ever-lit airbag warning light, windows never sealing quite right (leading to wind noise and the thing freezing solid on the inside during cold snaps, the temperamental petrol cap opening mechanism, wafer thin body work etc etc)...but slap in a Q2 diff, GTA flywheel and rev that engine and all is forgiven! Enjoy.
Picked the car up today - really pleasant transaction, car was exactly as described - not perfect but nothing a little bit of TLC with a Porter DA won't put right, door shuts immaculate, boot looks like its never been used, interior still looks and smells brand new.
Car drives superbly, massively better than my last V6, feels incredibly tight and taut whereas my previous one creaked and groaned - i'm confident I have bagged a good 'un
Seller showed me a receipt for £70+ petrol he put in it this morning, he had brimmed tank for me knowing I did not know the area and had a long journey home, said he'd appreciate me sending £50 via Paypal - nice gesture and saved me the hassle of finding a petrol station and also saved me some money

Because it summons up the spirits of dead film stars, who have nothing better to do than reply to people like me, now, back in your box. Oh by the way, your Porsche was crap in the corners.
Just wasted a couple of minutes looking at some of your posts - what a sad little man, every post I saw was insulting and derogatory - what a bundle of joy you must be to be aroundYou post on this thread about something in no way connected with the topic and proceed to insult - pathetic
