Beautiful car, still reckon you should have held out for the turbo!!

Could have got a nice import for that money [-X

Anyway, enjoy her! You could always go for the rogue systems turbo engine =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D>

he couldnt be bothered to look at anymore turbos as all of them seemed to be bumped etc, he also wanted something that was no older than 1995

he's had two rev 5's before, if he decides on an engine conversion i'll be doing it :)

As a guide I sold mine for £6,900 exactly 12 months ago with 75k on the clock.
FSH and was completely mint too.
Your dads has got less miles on the clock so I'd say the price is about right - Think I'd of tried for a more realistic £6,500 and left the offer with the dealer / private seller.
