just cant be fucked any more mate.

its so close, but i have totally run out of cash now.

but in reality i doubt anyone is going to give me 12k for it, so it will end up sitting in the garage for the next 4 years too

With respect, don't be a f*cking retard Dan! You may have run out of cash, but its worth more in the long run sitting in your garage, waiting for when you can spare some cash now and again. You'll be silly to get rid of it before reaping the benefits of a long and overdue project.

Wouldnt this be ideal for that new company that was advertising on here , with a new style ecu and free mapping . Worth having a chat with them as it would work out well for both of use .

Fudge you silly git.....just get it finished and enjoy it for a season or two, you've gone this far with it and it'll never fetch the money you want as a non runner. Then sell it and buy a 7 seater for 'the kids' lol!!

i also bet he hasnt spent over 30k on it either.

like i said i doubt anyone will give 12k for it, so it will more than likely stay...

i need to try and recoup some cost for it....

Got to be said that if you really wanna recoup some money you have got to drop the price as a overal, or break it, because with cars like Carlo's for sale, its just not gonna go at that price, specially with the "to your taste" mods like the front bumper and colour.
