I knew this time would come, but i've been doing my best to firmly bury my head in the sand.

As i have been properly stitched up by my extremely (un)honorable ex-wife in our impending divorce, i have no money and huge debts to various people (one of which is our lovely HMRC), and she still wants more!

To this end the VXR8 has to go.

I have advertised it on Piston Heads and Autotrader, but if anyone on here is looking to buy one, or knows of someone that is, please let me know.

It is a standard 57 plate, manual, in black, 13k ish. Been serviced twice in the last year, documented. Registered Oct 2007.

Any interest, direct it my way please.

Many thanks
Dave 07900 900370.

Sad to hear mate. If you need to sell fast I suspect you may need to drop your pants on it.
But I hope you dont need to.

Cant you sell your house and sleep in the VXR8? smile

Condolences my mate! Having gone through a divorce after 14 years (and 3 kids) of marriage I know it hurts.....financially as well as emotionally. I went through a "second divorce" when I split from my girlfriend of 10 years (no......not her age!!!). Ironically, that one cost a damn sight more! Inflation??? I've just gotten married again 9 weeks ago. Some people NEVER learn.lol. I reckon I've found the best woman on the planet this time though. So, chin up mate, keep the car, stalk her and wait for her to step off the kerb!!!!

They even hover a tad over £20k if you need to sell fast I suspect £19900 would do the trick. Otherwise best of luck.

Well they are not going to make a huge margin on it, maybe 2-3 grand. ie 10%, not much when all the bills are paid..

Should've put in on here at that for one of us in that case. Shame.
