Itchy feet - blame Mr Hughes!

[VerySideways]

After yesterday's TR i have spent most of this morning looking at the Chim classifieds. Having had a 400 and a 450 i'm so tempted to get another post-95 400, pref without power steering, and pref NOT in dark blue (since i've had Starmist and Iris before).

Talk about value for money...

DO IT

Phenomenal time to buy these, silly cheap.

[john_r]

Just been let down again by an eBay auction winner for the Disco. Do I get my £20 back from eBay for these auctions? No fking chance.

And then you put it in the Autotrader and it's the cheapest on there (and PH) for the mileage and spec and some fker agrees a price on the phone and turns up with £1,500 less and expects to drive it away because he's paying in cash. Innit. What the fk is wrong with people?!

[VerySideways]

Any idea what you might make breaking it?
Mind you, lot of hassle.
Unless you find a Chim needing an engine...

Only two things car sort that out Pete:

My 5 stud hubs and new brakes for the chim arrive on Weds.

Then time to order the new suspension and cerb racelines from Joo.

Then I can order the Supercharger kit

Then its time for a respray

[VerySideways]

Just noticed you can get a very nice Merc SL for £5k too.
Wonder how much an exhaust would be?

You might not get the best money, but think of the blood pressure!

[Vixpy1]

I would suspect they will offer about 3K,

I'm sure that could be arranged too

[Robatr0n]

Mr Hughes is a pain in the backside!

If I had the money I'd have one myself.

[VerySideways]

Is that the 6-pots up front?

[G T 3]

I looked at quite a few Chims before I got the 964, they look good in photos but were real shockers when I got there....
But a friend got a £6K car and spent 3 on it, now its great, he is throwing a supercharger at it for xmas...

Yes..good value motors

[VerySideways]

6 pots up front, 2 pots at the rear, calipers in Phoenix Yellow, new discs all round which are bigger than stock as well.

£908.50, planning to fit them on Sunday.
