    P185 Must Go :(

    There Come's a time in a mans life when you have to let go Due to needing a 7 seater and a car a bit more economical with now doing a lot of millage each day since moving south. I must sell my well known belovered T5 ! Im after either swap for 7 seater people carrier or sensible offers. PM for further details However im not always at my computer so will do my best to get back to you ASAP if any one interested. Many thanks Pete.

    Don't let her go Pete....you'll regret it !! I agree with Lee, a few ££ will buy you the 7 seat conversion including belts etc.

    I really fancy this car. I'm just going to sort out and do some financial juggling and see how it stands. At least it will stay in the forum.

    LPG convertion and 7 seat convertion and you can keep her.

    Did you know the EU says that you can't claim that drinking water prevents dehydration. So now you know for sure what many of have known for years that the EU is run by a bunch of nutters.

    If you are going to sell her Pete, I'd strip the stainless covers and strut brace and advertise them on here. It's a shame you can't pick up a cheap cat back exhaust to fit as the stainless Miltek systems are no longer available.

    I reckon you could make an extra £50-£100 selling the stainless covers and strut brace, along with an extra £100+ for the Miltek. Thoughts....??

    Hi buddy

    Think I'm just going to leave her as she is would be a shame to change what she is all about now. Just do my best to sell her to someone who will appreciate what the car is all about. Preferably someone on here?

    Cheers Pete

    Hi Pete, I'd stick her in the Cars for Sale section and list everything she has....ie

    RICA280
    Miltek Stainless Exhaust
    Goodridge Brake Hoses (F&R)
    Strut Brace
    HID's
    Privacy Glass
    Stainless Covers
    Pillar Mounted Gauge

    Obviously top of the range CD spec with full leather, electric seats & climate control.

    She did have Brembo disks and DS2500 pads.

    Comprehensive service history and a FORUM CAR SINCE 2006 !!

    Absolute bargain at £950 ono

    It's the 20 Post rule Pete, I think until you've reached a total of 20 posts you're unable to advertise in the Sale section.

    Just 3 more posts Pete and then stick your ad in.....
