better than drab jap interiors, the fact the the back and front of most jap cars dont go together in a nice even flow, carries on to their interiors

you know thats true

It looks ok, nothing to get excited over though imho..

i'd love it though cos it looks a right wolf in sheeps clothing. Although if it just had a 1.4 4 cylinder n/a engine then theres no chance one of them would be on my drive.

i dont recall ever sayin that a sierra did have good interior did i? Nope i dint and im just saying wat i think and like all jap cars it has shite interior just likemy mates pulsar,scooby and evo so drab and boring witha set of decent seats and some chave bling, to be honest i like german car interiors the best they rule look at any bmw,audi even the seats and vw now have lush interiors in there sporty cars!

in fact i just looked at the interior of that car but in standard form ie no leather race seat, decent steering wheel or cage and yes ur right the sierra is a pinnacle of interior design compared to that

Would love to own that, but fuck it's ugly. 4.5k though, thats a bargain.

I'd do as said - buy it, smoke about, sell it. Or, if u really love it, flog ur other motors.... TBH, i think ur gonna make a proper job of the binliner, dont strip it out, dont go to race on the suspension, and u would have the ultimate road racer/get u to work on time car

Lee/Rick/Etc- Im in way too deep on the Skyline now. If it wasnt for it partway through being resprayed i could nob it off as id not owe anyone anything, but now thats done i need to finish it.

And i purely aint got the cash for summat else too.

Its a bargain if someone wants it, but ill have to wait till post skyline for something like this.

Worst thing is my Skyline engine is on its way to the UK as we speak, and if i sold that i could buy this car 3 times over

(and yes, the skyline is a full road car with full interior, even if it will be a moneypit that eats boxes like a dyke)

Didnt see the money lending bit
Awesome offer, appreciate it , but the sensible side of me says i REALLY shouldnt buy this car when ive got a mondeo, a 200sx, a R32GTR, and a 24valve Senator

Once the GTR is done, took to a few shows, and nobbed off, then summat a bit flash/different (or an E39 M5 ) bought, but as per yet, i cant, jus thought id post it incase someone else fancied it as much as i do.

(must admit, its tempting to nob the flash engine off for a lot of cash and put in a more normal one, but thatd jus make the car a mad looking but normal going GTR, so wont)

Scary thing is... I bet you aren't actually are you

I was on holiday last week with Renton, Martin and Sean and we were sitting around the pool with a copy of Top marques.... maybe it was the heat, maybe the beer or maybe because Sean makes you think that life should be lived for every second and that thinking about the future responsibly is gay and boring BUT buying a Carrera GT suddenly seemed like a really good idea

Renton sorted me out though by grabbing the magazine back and telling me to stop being a CUNT.

Hows things with you mate? found an X50'd 996 yet? Skyline ok?

I was soooo going to suggest that! GTR's are hardly slow mate. I drove Seans stage 1 R32 the other day. You don't NEED anymore than that on the road if we are honest. lovely and responsive down low with enough up top. Reliable too... its the sensible thing to do mate.

You have a MONSTER engine mate. But it will be a monster to try and finish and keep on the road. It really will you will need to have £4500 just in the glovebox everytime you go out in it 'just in case'

Sorry to be so down and gay about it!

Call Sean, he will convince you that what in fact you need is a twin engined GTR and you should build another monster engine for the boot

Why is there a car for sale in this section, and posted by a non paying member ?

Is it OK to post other peoples cars for sale ?

So the heading, "anyone want an awesome car" doesn't sound like an advert, and people are not asking for more details.

wake up

No, you wake up! Steve posted that as it was interesting and was showing whats out there to buy nowadays for very little money.

He did NOT post that to try and help someone out and sell the car.

Thats why the mod team have not removed this post as they clearly took the post as steve meant it and understood why it was posted.

Awake yet
