I'm sorry goldmember I've got to agree with the other two, those beige interiors just show up all the dirt and marks. Black interior now that's the way forwards

Hi Tc.. I'm sorry to see this , and wish you the best of luck whatever you decide .
I'm being genuine here and dont want to be seen as taking advantage but depending how you feel about the car itself is there any way you could keep the car but sell parts off it to generate enough cash? Like your earlier plans to break it but fit standard parts instead to keep it going? Since I've bought the R from you there isn't much I could buy off you but if you sold stuff like your wheels and your exhaust to others on here that would generate £650, I'd buy your BSR intake for £70 so that'd be over £720 easy ..obvious you would need standard parts to fit , am just trying to think of any other way than you having to sell it after all the work you've put into it.

Yeah I've thought about that as well Ste but as you say it does mean having the other parts to put on, the airfilter wouldnt be a problem as I've got a stack of airfilter boxes lying around.
Cant really sell the wheel without having something to replace the 18's with, would have to be another set of comets and by the time I've taken them in part ex I'm going to be giving my wheels away for a couple of hundred quid.

I see what you mean mate :/ Can't think of another solution.. It's even annoying that if you did sell them you can't stick a spare set of 15s on it while you sort things out! If you do want to sell bits off it I'd buy the BSR kit off you anyway., but that's genuinely not why I'm replying here . I do hope it works out for you and you get to keep your pride and joy.

Steve

Thanks Steve it's appreciated bud, I'm trying everything I can to make some money at the minute but sadly there's just nothing going at all.

Unfortunately mate I'm going through some very tight times myself so I can only offer my sympathy and hope things pick up for you, good luck if you do have to sell its a very nice looking motor so hopefully you shouldn't struggle too much
