[stevie69]

[t5 pete]

It was in really good condition when shep stupidly sold it just had a spray job aswell boost issues are normally easy enough to sort but knock them down on that price

[t5 pete]

[stevie69]

[richyt5]

[richyt5]

why was it painted? has it been bashed

[stevie69]

it is ricad..or it was anyway..

[7unner172]

any one got a link to shepbomb?

[richyt5]

defo no rica remap must have a standard ecu in now as he rekons it boosts to 0.9 bar?

[850 T5s]

was this the 850 that was on gumtree in teeside area ? if it is it look like a clean car

[danny-R]

Yes that's the car. I went with a mate to buy it he gave 820 for it and put it up for double that. It was a very clean car mind. It came with a receipt for Rica but I took the ecu out and it had never been opened plus it was boosting like mad but not going anywhere. Probably due to it running an Mbc and bleed valve at the same time it felt slow

It was painted as a council gritter went past it and chipped it, believe it was painted down one side and R front and rear spoilers done at same time.
Looked very nice when I saw it

I thought it was m8, I seen it on gumtree the other week but seemed a bit expensive as id just sold mine for £800 <<<<< biggest regret ever

[shepbomb]

Sounds like it could have been a little miss loved since she left me, still regret letting the car go to this day

I know exactly how you feel shep, wish I had never sold mine now, wonder where it is now,reg, N455*** if anybody has seen it, I sold it to some lads in Liverpool in october

[richyt5]

wel do you lads think its worth payin 1100 for it? just so i can make my mind up

[t5 pete]

If its in the same condition as it was when steven had it then yeah it was a really tidy motor

[danny-R]

wel do you lads think its worth payin 1100 for it? just so i can make my mind up
I'd definitely chip away at the price as it will be advertised as having a Rica but it doesn't..
