Er...ahem. Er, yeah, that one!
Is anybody else as crap as me when it comes to selling your car?
I/m diabolical at selling a car, to the point where i kept my first Bravo for 4 years and 12 gearboxes and clutches, 2 head gaskets and a few other repairs. this cost me more in repairs alone than it did to buy the car on finance!Is anybody else as crap as me when it comes to selling your car?
would love to own a grale one day, but i doubt ill ever have the money to own all the cars i would love

Sorry But she has new ARBs, dampers, shocks etc. S'like falling in love all over again. Has anybody ever mentioned how well Grales handle on fresh underpinnings? 
That's all the persuasion I need DJC, mine needs the same, reckon a call to Whalley in order. Once again refurb'ing wheels on back burner.....Sorry

Yep, have had mine 8 years and have "tried" to sell it 3 times. I even let someone else drive it once...Is anybody else as crap as me when it comes to selling your car?
Was thinking she might have to go as I am going non-dom... but just having wheels re-furbed and 3 angle valve job / hybrid turbo etc and now thinking 90days use a year will keep the mileage down and the value up, and I'll always look forward to driving her, and the tax savings will buy lots of goodies and what would I replace her with anyway, and god she looks stunning after a wax job (the car), and, and, and...
In 2003 I fitted Group A Grevel spec Bilsteins to mine, and I just returned it to standard a couple of months ago. It now feels like a scary speedboat, lurching back on acceleration and has nowhere near as good traction.
Keeping it standard is nice for the originality, but suspension design has come such a long way in 20 years that modern applications like Ohlins ad RSR are far superior both on road and track.

That's what I suspected. Keeping it standard is nice for the originality, but suspension design has come such a long way in 20 years that modern applications like Ohlins ad RSR are far superior both on road and track.
My 8v has been lowered (not sure what on, it's a bit of a nail in all honesty) but compared to the standard Evo I had it's like a go kart and actually more fun with it.
