Hi everyone sold my ro just over two years ago to Ramon which was a big mistake brought an astra vxr arctic which was a nice car just never had the wow factor like the ro anyway that's now sold and I'm after an r8 now has to be supercharged and a few other mods got around 19 to 20k to spend. Do you think I will get a good one with that budget ? There's not much about at the minute.

You should get something nice for that..... When something actually comes up. The trouble is the really nice ones are staying put.
James at elite is a good source, Preciousmetal on here.

Have you spoken to 'Gary no Grip' I believe he has something that matches your description that he reluctantly wants to part with, plus hes only up at Fareham.

Have seen Gary's one just put off by the miles if it ever came to resale. I've never owned a car that's done more than 60k miles my last one was 4 years old with 19k on the clock. And have a bit more to spend did find this and gutted it was sold

Hi Aaron
Selling her to me was not a mistake from my perspective ha ha
She's still all good, only done 15k miles since I've had her and she's going in for a front end respray next week for stonechips and will be doing a full underseal this year, you see, I told you I'd look after her! She is my absolute pride and joy
Hope you get back in a V8 soon mate

Have a word with James at Elite about high mileage Monaros/VXR8's he sold Gary the car and I got to say it's a beauty.

Understand mate, most are put off by the mileage, sure a low milaege one will come around soon enough

[stigmundfreud]

if not put off by the mileage, the owner would scare many when answering the door

To be fair it is in better condition than ones I've seen with half the mileage & drives superbly if u was in the market I wouldn't hesitate to buy it

Gary you should really list the huge amount of replacement parts the car had in the last couple of years as it would help sell it

Im not sure who is going to be the most upset to see it sold, Gary or J666EDS, I think deep down he wants it!
