My OBD 2 Black VR6 (Journal begins 16/9/06)


Recommended Posts

Well, its been almost a week since picking up the VR6 from my 1000 mile, 16 hour journey to Skegness. Since then ive continued to drive around in my banger of a Escort as i was waiting to have a service done on the VR6 and another little problem fixed. This week i also received my new lights and am awaiting the fronts @ the moment. But here's the new additions. To be fitted tomorrow.

The day i bought it.SAT 16th September (i think)

£1000

That sounds a bit to cheap for a full respray to me. Especially if you are having the rear badges and wiper removed at the same time !

Bare in mind that if the recess for the badge is not plated and welded it will swell up and be visable. :-)

Don't let them tell you otherwise. :-)

Car looks pretty nice though and was worth the long trip it seems.

Yeah, thats the worry part as were not sure how much filler has been used in the past, so i maybe a case of getting a new rear quarter panel fitted. Drives lovely though and the leather is so comfy. (h)
