Won't be long coming (oh dear, another opportunity for misinterpretation).

Marco, I'm sure you have good reasons; just seems SUCH a shame. Good luck mate thumb ,

Tim, pm me mate.

How as fantastic as it sounds, it *may* happen...

I'm not sell this car to a bad home, if I think your not going to treat it the way it should be treated, don't even bother dropping me a pm.

No amount of money will let it go to a bad home.

Marco, you know you'll want to kill yourself once it's actually sold.

You COULD always let the missus bring in some extra cash... if you know what I mean. laugh

I think you dont want to sell the coupe nor will you at that price. Hence it being at that price.

So young Marco what is really wrong ? pm me if you want mate.

yer you have a point mate, its priced at 4k for a reason.
If some one wants to pay it, then i no its going to a good home where money will be spent on it if it needs it!

ive priced it high, im sure hovedan is it itiching to commect on price laugh

and your right, i dont want to sell it, but needs must mate!
if i can turn things around in the next month or so, im keeping it, if not then well, the coupe goes i guess!

i did want it for spa..
but who knows, im still booked as if im going so the credit cards can take another beating laugh

I know you're expecting abuse from me Pat but it's not going to happen - this will be a sad day for the car and for the forum if this happens.

As the others have said, you WILL regret selling this once it's gone, it's a stunning example of how a coupe should look. Ok you can't drive, but that's not the car's fault is it? laugh

If it's gone by Spa, or you come with us but don't bring it, you can take mine round for 1 of the 3 sessions....

If the bottom line is money though, are you sure everything else has been sacrificed before you let it go? Grow a pair, stay in and save some money, keep the f*****ng car!!! evil

All this drama for nothing. I'll eat my hat if you actually sell this, Marco. wink

IMO you should follow through with the most sensible option. Money doesn't grow on trees and let's face it, sometimes finances need to be used for more important things. You know what I'm going to say...







Sell a kidney.

Do you mean convert mine to a 20vt?

I've always fancied a nice sprinty 20vt to drop my Dedra running gear into!

Very sorry to hear this marco, I know the paint on yours is something joe and dean are both very prowd of as you are!

Money is money, cars are cars. when your sorted there is nothing stopping you chucking another wedge of cash at another porto.

And there is nothing wrong with the sei!
