Alright everyone, any questions about my sale i will glad to reply. Going to be a Dad very soon and keeping the eco family car. Very sad to see the Coupe go, met loads of very good people on here and i will be back in the near future.

Congrats and commiserations equally Craig!

I have seen this car and it is a very nice coupe.....well looked after.
Paul

very upset to see the Coupe go. Been trying to talk the Wife into keeping, but no joy at all. She did say that after 1.5 years and can buy again. told her that i'm not going to find one in this condition but will look.

PS thanks Dan and Paul

Tbh, unless you are having real financial problems, by keeping the Coupe, then I don't see the point in selling either, only to be looking for another one in 1.5 years, in maybe not so good condition?

If money isn't a problem, then maybe store it for a while?

Dunno, I hate threads like this and annoys me when a partner is making the other 'get rid' of their beloved car

theres more to it than that, let me explain.

wife wants a year off work and i'm happy with that.
she would only receive very little money from work for the 1st 6 months. I have few grand debt that i want to pay off with the money from Coupe, so then i would have more money each month to suport this, hence why the Coupe has to go.

Trust me if there was a little way that i could keep the Couoe i would. Then i would not be wasting my time in trying to sell for peanuts.

Thanks for explaining Craig, you didn't have to, but thanks anyway and makes a bit more sense now

It's a shame the Coupe has to go, but I do hope you'll be back with another.

If I had the spare cash, I'd buy it off you and look after it for 18 months for you.

In fact I'd do the same with all the Coupes

oh how I wish....

1st disappointing customer walked away yesterday…lol
Spent all day waxing and servicing the Coupe. Knocked me down well below my asking before even seeing the car. Walked away as there were rust spots on the bonnet.
Don’t understand why people expect a 13 year old car to be in mint condition!
Said to the guy that you want to be looking under the hood before you look at the condition of the paint work ECT.

Its a buyers market out there craig, there is pleanty of cheap coupes around.

Ben

cheap! tell me about it, but you know your going to buy a dog and spend twice more replacing bits ect when you buy cheap.

there's a nice plus on auto trader for 3 grand...omg! last year i seen one go for 5 grand.

Those days are gone

hi mate would you sell turbo separate?

selling for £2200 with all parts.

what are those pipe cover things and where did you get them mate

you can get them from fleabay, I got a bag of mixed thickness so I can re-do all my cabling at some point.

Think I paid about £10


Paul

thanks Paul...lol yes i got them from ebay for about that. It looks better in the flesh and not that hard to do.

Craig, any dyno graphs?


Ben
