[randomist 0]

just been for a spin down to a local retail park in my lunch break & i'd just parked the car up when this burly chap came running after me! he shouted " how mate, does your car have a tiny tab burn on the rear seat behind the drivers?" once i realised i wasn't about to be carjacked i said yeah it has actually. he then got all excited & animated coz he said thats my old car! apparently he was the 2nd owner after he bought it off a chap from london who stupidly told him he'd just lost his job & wanted a quick sale! so this guy arranges to meet the seller in nottingham with the 16k in his pocket that the car was advertised for! after a test drive & a thorough check over he couldn't find fxxk all wrong with it but cheekily offered him 14k! the seller was gutted but begrudgingly accepted, the daft twxt! he then goes on to say its the best car he's ever had & that he kept it for 5 years which he never normally does! obviously a vw enthusiast coz he'd had golf vr's & was driving a new gti & had put his name down for the new scirocco! how cool is that? not sure if that's classed as a chuftie! :lol:

I'd love to meet the previous owners of my car - specifically the one that swapped the 2.0 block for a 1.8 which cost me a small fortune to put right :mad:

Id consider that to be a very good chuftie mate.

 

I hope you winged at him for damaging the seat with a tab burn!!

just got to find out who had it in the first place then i'll have the whole history of it!

did you sell it to a guy called will from sunderland? think i've spoke to you about this before?

[JIMMI 0]

Yeah i also live in Sunderland and i sold it to Will in about 2001, it had done 68k & was stone mint, i think i sold it for about 10k i loved that car, id like to see it again !!

I had to sell it to raise capital to start my business, it was the only motor i have "had" to sell so ill always remember it ! However i suppose it helped me move on to bigger and better things in the end though. I always said id buy another, i bought a 64k miler VR last year as a second car which ive just fitted an EIP tuning Turbo kit to so i suppose L690PBD has a lot to answer for !!!!!

Ill keep an eye out for it !!!!!!!!!!

cool, would love to meet the previous owners of mine.

 

I'm based in Oxford, and I bought the car from Guildford, from a car dealership. Checking the paper work, all the sevricing for the 3 years before I had it was done in the same road I work on in Oxford! crazy coincidense
