its that gut wrenching feeling when you see it drive off, truely the worst car related feeling ever....



anyway 10k....you pay some debts, buy a new tv and itl be gone! it doesnt go far, and is that worth all your time, money, effort?

vroooom ptssssh

A'll muppit u Ollie


On one hand Euan, take the cash, while the cars still running and not costing you, sort debts/mortgage/danielle (lol)

On the other, keep it, something goes wrong and you need to spend another 500 quid? 1000 quid?

It's a v.hard decision to do, but I think you already know the answer, just too afraid to do it as the car means allot to you!


See you tommo anyway

I really will never understand how decent spec Sapphs can go for so little money, 10k for a car like this is mega cheap imo!!

I mean, seriously, what else on the road is going to stay with you with this sort of power unless it costs hundreds of thousands of pounds??

Good luck with the sale Euan if you do decide to sell but i do think you'll regret it come next summer!!

Csm

Very tough call ...............

But money talks and bullshit walks an all that

If theres a firm offer of 10k for a saph then i admit id be selling it myself and i love cossies

Miss my old saph badly at times and i was gutted to see it drive off in honesty

Its all very well saying keep it keep it but if its not getting used much then whats the point when there is bills to pay etc etc

As mentioned there IS a sigh of relief when you have sold tho as you do say to yourself least if summit breaks it wont rape the wallet anymore ............ it will rape the new owner

3door

have to agree cars are like drugs try as you will they are a hard habit to break..i was adamant i wouldnt get another car bought a scoob running 430bhp and thought lets have a fmic and cold air kit now maf scaling is all over the place wont idle had to park it up and need a simtek ecu to go mafless so all in all a quick 4.5k
we are all the same we spend thousands and thousands on these cars and its all dead money and if u need the cash then take it quick and de stress it really isnt worth it and at the end of the day yes its a nice fast car but it is only a sierra and mine is only a scoob these are not in the same league as porsche etc they will only ever be a souped up ford or a souped up scoob and in todays market i have to say ur lucky someone has 10k to spend
sell it quick and be done with it imho

But isn,t that what makes them so much fun?? yes it,s a Sierra, but one that does give supercars a run for there money, triple the price..

scoooby slayer

iTrader: (4)

exactly mate i mean how many production cars could do 190 at brunters ? not many i wouldnt of thought.

Staffi

iTrader: (1)

So are you buying it then fella??

fuzzy

probably not. as always there will be pages and pages of "what a bargain, if i had the cash id buy it" "what a bargain, good luck with the sale" and "dam, if only this had come up for sale last week when i had the cash" etc etc etc comments but no actual genuinely interested non timewasters.
by the way if i had the cash id also buy it , but i dont so im out

steviecossie

if it was me and scooby slayer is a genuine buyer and he's offered the cash,
the car would be his.

Dunno whether to say or

Your car do what you like, but are you sure you are doing the right thing? Put it away for the winter and see how you feel in apri/may.

Staffi

iTrader: (1)

Fair play to you Euan,

He,s getting a great car for sure and if you,re happy good on ya..

Coldo

Well done Euan, can't have been easy but you're too much of a poser for a sierra Evo time now surely!

Staffi

iTrader: (1)

I,ve said that, he says no, we,ll see.....

Csm

Congrats to both parties

Although there may be when it leaves just think of the wad of cash propping yer pillow case up

iTrader: (5)

wil be a shame to see it go,awsome car

but nice one karl you will not be disapointed i can gaurantee you that

is it going with the plate euan?

pauldonachyrs

is karl (scoobyslayer) breaking it or keeping it whole

AGAR-COSWORTH

Pleased you sold it in the end - was in awesome car, but like you said your heart wasn't really in it anymore.

As for the £10K, id spend 2K and get yourself one of those cheap track cars you were talking about, and get the rest invested in the stock market/high interest account.

All the best.

baba

id say thats pretty good advise!

KSA-Cossie

iTrader: (4)

Didn't think you'd sell it euan,but if needs must eh.

rapidcossie

Diva has already given me a deposit for the plate col that will need to come off the car.

black scoob

sorry to see this go euan, hope you dont regret it.... when is it away??be good if alan can get mines mapped before it goes so we can have a wee blast and see if its still going to befit its new owners username

NUTTIN RILLA

Oh well euan end of an era mate, trust me tho it will be a big loss but such a big weight of your shoulders, wether theyr running great or not your always waiting on the next thing to break, its a fact.

Get a bike mate and get toff to show you how to ride the fucker, best value for money in the whole petrol head world, thats a fact also

rapidcossie

Dont yours will be mapped in time mate.

Yours should be able to show mine a clean pair of heels when its runing full power

rapidcossie

A bike could be a possiblity for me jonny as more and more of my mates are getting them.

black scoob

you're probably right mate, god knows how long its going to take to get it done, am desperate to get it mapped to see what it can do, ive to phone alan again on tuesday to see if we are any closer to it going back in....

black scoob

bike is a great option mate, still partly regret selling the r1, but if the scoob comes back running well it will make it a bit easier to do without....

iTrader: (6)

black scoob

Rab

Just steer clear of HBOS and big investment banks

rapidcossie

Money talks tho Steven doesnt it.

Rod-Tarry

An F40 cant do 200 down Brunters would struggle to beat Euan. Thats how fast that Saff is. .

AGAR-COSWORTH

Why? The government insures all investments up to £35K.

Back on topic: Any videos of it on track Euan?

fezzer1900

AH HELL TO IT ANYWAY, if i had have seen this car for sale about two weeks go i would have given you 11k for it. i am kicking myself here.
