blackcat 0 Posted June 4, 2005 Today we went up to Manchester to see the Blackberry VR6 that He-Man is advertising and we put a deposit down. The front end is going to be resprayed and then we can pick it up next Saturday. 8) See here for details. I am very excited about our new purchase but now it means I have to sell the valver :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Walesy 0 Posted June 4, 2005 well done dudes.....looked like a goodun to me too!.... hope you saved a bit of money for fuel though :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackcat 0 Posted June 4, 2005 yeah fuel economy is a bit crap but I'm sure the good points will outweigh the bad! It is a lovely colour, bonnet looks a bit horrific at the moment but once it's sprayed it'll be a beauty!! Suppose I should change my name now......

GIXXERUK 0 Posted June 4, 2005 looks a very honest vr imo , a bit of tlc on the bodywork and it'll be a minter, i dont find the petrol that bad tbh and mine is a daily driver enjoy :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackcat 0 Posted June 4, 2005 was a part exchange not possible ? no, he doesn't really deal in valvers and said that I'd get a lot more if I sold it privately. The picture of the front end really doesn't show how bad it is. Looks like someone has been at it with a scouring pad or something!! Looking forward to going and getting it and seeing the paint job, should look great when thats done. just 7 days and counting till we go get it.........

Not_Aircooled_or_Taxfree 0 Posted June 5, 2005 It was just down to luck, with good VR's it is down to first come first served, a bit of a gamble i know but this one seems worth it! what should we be looking for when it comes to the maintenance of VR's? :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bally 0 Posted June 6, 2005 nice one.. hope the valver goes to a good home.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DanA 0 Posted June 6, 2005 Your blackberry colour looks loads darker than mine... must be just the lighting. Really need to get mine lowered, yours looks spot on! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackcat 0 Posted June 6, 2005 I suppose colours are going to very due to fading/age etc. or maybe it is just lighting. And yes, it does look good lowered 8) When we went to see it and parked my valver next to it, you could clearly see that they look a lot better lowered!

anubis 0 Posted June 7, 2005 Think someone just mentioned it, but those pictures on the other thread didn't look Blackberry at all, much darker ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackcat 0 Posted June 7, 2005 Think someone just mentioned it, but those pictures on the other thread didn't look Blackberry at all, much darker ? Yeah, it does look darker. Is there another purple shade? What's the paint code for Blackberry? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dinkus 10 Posted June 7, 2005 It looks like it's the aubergine type colour - definitely the coolest purple colour 8) Oh and paint codes are in the Corrado Buying Guide ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anubis 0 Posted June 7, 2005 Blackberry is LK4Z, could it be Twighlight Violet LC4T ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
