I reckon this one was worth a punt. He'll easily make what he paid back if it's shot and he has to break it.

We'll fit your sei AND panda while were at it

I never said it was a bad car.......

In parts alone its worth what ryan paid, and it has had an engine replacement, so its got plenty of life left

Re: how about a warm welcome for our newest 20 valver

It will be interesting to see how much it costs to fix.

Dont think im having a go, its a lovely car and a potentially good buy, but imo it will cost a fair bit to put right.
