A5 VRX 0 Posted January 18, 2007 Bally, Yep sold the G mate and regretted it as soon as i heard the thing roar down the road! Mate wants to sell his 1.8 16v (my old black one) for £1100 and i keep thinkin about it! Know what you mean about the mirrors but they are growing on me but have to remind peeps that they are not M3 reps!! GIXXERUK, All in good time!! I'm in comfort mode with my cars at the moment! LOL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOL Dont see many silvers G60's.. hope it went to a good home.. Valvers are cheap now... Its kind of nice driving a standard motor, but when you see a modded one you'll soon be getting rims, coilovers, s/c blah blah :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A5 VRX 0 Posted January 18, 2007 Had to stop myself buying wheels and suspension the other day! Thought about it and as much as i want the car to look good i would rather people saw it for now as a well kept/rust free near standard example thats why its off to the paint shop first before the mods come! Really miss the C though now....Low, Loud, Porsche wheels and a Supercharger!! Aaahhh what have i done! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goldie 2 Posted January 18, 2007 That silver G60 is lovely. Am a fan of the Vento, nice car.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A5 VRX 0 Posted January 18, 2007 Jim, Great mate, quiet and comfortable and really practical! Love the VR6 engine but if i had the choice between a corrado VR and a G60 i'd take the G everytime. GIXXERUK, Wasn't easy but onwards and upwards! Loved that car but needed spare cash for a house but sods law has it everyone has donated all the stuff (washer,cooker,sofa etc) so probably could of kept it now! Goldie, Ta mate!

A5 VRX 0 Posted January 20, 2007 Car has been dropped off at the bodyshop this morning for the work to be done so without a car for the week! Here are pics of some of the work that needs doing, both rear sills are the same as the one below Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A5 VRX 0 Posted January 20, 2007 There are a few other bit's and pieces to be done, scratch on drivers door, bit of scabbing on the middle of passenger rear, bottom of front passenger arch is bubbling. So list is Both front wings Both sills (cut out and re-done) Both rear panels with arches getting filled with anti rust treatment Drivers door Drivers side rear Rest of the paint work though is really clean and very shiney so should look great when it's all done Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
