When I got her she was rather too low for my liking- Couldn't get her over the big speed bumps in the hotel yesterday :shrug:

 

So Once I got her home I raised her by 1''--- I can now get her up my drive :clap:

Will I need to get the tracking checked as I have raised her up?????????????

 

She has Diavia air-con , which I am really pleased about too. Plus the air-con buttons are where the heated seat buttons would go so It looks really good.

 

Not got many pics yet but here are 2 MORE

 

Bear in mind she needs a good wash/wax-- I found some very muddy lanes in south Wales

Boy did I smile all the way home

Very nice. I saw that and thought it was a great deal for the money being asked.

 

Thanks mate - I am well pleased everything works plus total closure alarm and it has a great Sony Stereo with bluetooth. So I can link it to my iphone -play all my albums on the phone and use it as a hand free too :D :D

I'm a little jealous to be honest though... I couldn't travel this weekend but if it had still been there next weekend then I'd probably have gone to see it. I love the colour and the air con is a nice bonus. You got a good one there. Enjoy :clap:

Don't recall seeing it on the forum, but spotted it on Pistonheads instead.

The valver will be going for sale soon----I do feel the need for a 'double' photo shoot first though :camp:

This was one of my favourite VR's when Chris had it, you've got a good one there Darren!!

 

Ian :D

 

Thanks Ian- I do feel I have bought a good one--The exhaust is a little loud (scared the hell out of a few cattle on Dartmoor)

Might have to put that right in the Morning :D

Well after two heavy weeks working I managed to spend a few Hrs with the VR today. I gave her 'my' 1st wash

Then I gave the seats a quick once over I am loving the leather :camp: :camp:

But the air con is fantastic and these are my favorite buttons

Oh and I gave her a proper 'ITALIAN' tune up :clap: :clap:

Had no luck on selling the valver :(

So I decided to get them both out of the garage and drive them back to back :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

 

Then a couple of joint pics.

Cars looking great, how much was the new grill if you don't mind me asking?
