  2. its got 125k miles and few months mot and tax £280
  3. Firstly why can't a 33 year old man be honest rather than wasting my time? :(.. It was a nightmare!!! It started off well as me and my friend was originally planning to go via train but i dont know what made me ring my other friend from school days and he offered me a ride and if he could come along as he had nothing to do! So the journey to Kent was full of a lot of 'hehes' and 'haha's LOL and once i had arrived there, everything was different! The interior of the car was amazing i must admit but the floors ha! they were more like urm lets say a fish tank with no fishes!!! The front and rear were absoloutley drenched and the water was still there and buyer tried telling me that 'oh the window was left open overnight and it rained' which to me was absolute BULLSH17!!! Right but never mind that, i still wasnt put off tbh as things never get to me, i'm always smiling regardless of the situation like people say but yeah checked the engine coolant levels before the car was switched off and everything seemed fine so yeah lets fire her up and get it running so i can drive it before i exchange any monies. Firstly battery was dead so as 'Luke' had mentioned, the battery was put on charge overnight and he was just installing it back into the bay when i had arrived! First turn of key it started however it seemed like the spark plugs were totally f00ked as it hesitated starting and once it had, there was trouble with the idle and i had to put my feet on the gas to keep it started! Although once warm, it was totally fine again. Took it for a test drive and it was immense! i must admit it pulled very strong in all gears and it had a nice 'roar' from the engine which i was thinking it must be a induction kit but i had remembed there isnt one there! Anyways whilst driving back, i had noticed the 'water l.e.d' flash and i was told by Luke(seller) it would be okay probs a faulty sensor but once i parked up again, i had realised the expansion tank(coolant bottle) was dryyy!! bone dry!! not even the slighest bit of water and i thought WTF!!! we filled it up again and its like leaking from underneath like a running tap! i was so upset as id come all this way and now finding out i wouldnt be able to drive it back home :(..Luke was very helpful as he tried so many methods such as halfords rad welds and etc but it still wouldnt stop leaking! I didnt bloody sleep the night before as people know, i left at 6.30 in the morning and arrived about just after 9ish and like i really dont appreciate this after having several lengthly phone conversations regarding the vehicle! So guess what? I still didnt give up, i wanted it :(.. I really loved it i mean i wanted to cry inside when i found out the fact i couldnt drive it back but called the AA and they had come and checked up and said, theres meant to be a round thing sitting on the cylinders etc or something abit like a candle http://www.sz-wholesale.com/uploadFiles ... Z84053.jpg and because that isnt there or it could have popped out due to being under load and it just shot it out the block! So AA were lets say B4ST4RDZ!! Its my f00kin vehicle, i've just bought it so why cant i have it recovered home !!! :@..So to cut the story short it was one hell of a day especially when i left from Ashford about 1.30 and coming back home at 6.30 as friend thought its funny to drive on 'A' roads going in and out of london and getting lost LOL (pr1ck:) but yeah so ive told luke im still interested and i love the car, i do i understand it needs some tlc but aslong as the major or horrendous water leak is sorted, id be happy to take it away! So tomorrow fingers crossed, i should be hearing something from him but after i drove that corrado :( im in love with them *blushes* LOL but yeah that is what happened today! 1 F'd up day seriously!
  4. Oh you got that right LOL! i'm constantly having to look at the picture of the car LOL because i just can't wait!! :clap:
  5. AlgarveVR6- Thats what im assuming it could be because he said the heater fan doesnt work at all! If it was the headgasket, the heater should work but would be blowing out cold air rather than hot(please correct me if im wrong)
  6. also im going by this guide http://reviews.ebay.co.uk/HOW-TO-TEST-F ... 0001891247
  7. if it was a headgasket, wouldnt the oil and water mix into one and also would i see any deposits of it on the cap of the rad? he said temperature is not overheating as he kept the water topped up
