VR6 0 Posted January 21, 2004 Not out of line DM, but probably more suited to the General forum seeing as though this isn't actually selling a specific car. Unless you want to add a price? ;) hehe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted January 22, 2004 I agree Bally, its worth a trip for a good car, over settling for a local one Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henny 0 Posted January 22, 2004 I did over 1000 miles trying to find a reasonable one for good money, I still reckon I didn't do too badly with the one I've got... 8) I did use it as an excuse for driving about the country too and visiting Uni friends though! :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhatVR6 0 Posted January 22, 2004 I traveled across town to find pretty much the only VR6 Corrado for sale in Texas! lucky me :D I also found it on Autotrader, got a really good price too.

Danger Mouse 0 Posted January 22, 2004 ['H3R4POR]I agree Bally' date=' its worth a trip for a good car, over settling for a local one[/quote'] Couldnt agree more mate. I travelled to London to get my baby................ then spent the following 10 hours getting used to her on the drive back to Paisley. DM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Furkz 0 Posted January 22, 2004 i went from gaatwick to birmingham once because it seemed like the ultimate car and spend total on 1 yr 4 months looking for my car and than all of a sudden out of a freebie local paper i bought one from 10 miles away :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pau1 0 Posted January 22, 2004 So Jim the moral of the story is you shouldnt limit yourself to 120 miles... :arrow: :arrow: :arrow: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6storm 0 Posted January 23, 2004 So Jim the moral of the story is you shouldnt limit yourself to 120 miles... :arrow: :arrow: :arrow: .......found my storm 128 miles away from me IIRC :wink: ......like other have said don't limit yourself to just local ones...........also with the forum we must have the bulk of the Country(UK) covered.......i'll easily go out and have a look at any you find local to me and give you an un-biased view on it.....i'm sure everyone else would too :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted January 23, 2004 Yup, Manchester or Cheshire (or even part of Staffordshire!) is covered by me on a regular basis! 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted January 23, 2004 So Jim the moral of the story is you shouldnt limit yourself to 120 miles... :arrow: :arrow: :arrow: Well yeah its great in principal.. But I can only ask friends & family to drive me around so much. I'm pinning hopes on either a nice reasonably local car, or one that might be a bit of a drive but be a nice genuine motor when I go to check it out.

DaveStorm 0 Posted January 24, 2004 one that might be a bit of a drive but be a nice genuine motor when I go to check it out. Well if you want a top notch C these days you may have to do just that. :wink: That's exactly what I did, went to London by train to get it though, as no friends available to drive me ...... but it was the first one I saw and I snapped it up :) I'm sure it won't be long before you get a minter so good luck 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggrim 0 Posted January 24, 2004 Yeah, I flew down to East Midlands then got a lift to Walsall to get my G60. Was the second one I went to see and just had to have it. It's worth it in the end if you can manage it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Campaign 0 Posted January 24, 2004 I flew up to Prestwick from Stanstead to pick up a Storm (Scirocco), still cheaper than driving it! Drove the 260 miles home on a Sunday afternoon. Was a very pleasant trip! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
