Yeh that was the bug eye one, sacked that off as the owner didn't sound right to me, sounded fishy so didn't waste my time
The blob eye iv just seen I found this afternoon....unfortunately very tatty
Made me think about P1's again now...although P1's getting on a bit seems if I get one with low enough miles they seem to be a bit collectable...but do I want to ruin that by going on track with?...decisions
What happened with yours Brett!?

Yeah possibly. Might just go back to the drawing board. Fortunately we're 180 miles apart, so we won't be competing for the same ones

Unless you consider Birmingham is not too far from you...
Then we may have a problem

To be honest, I'm limited with who I can deal with anyway, since I'm after someone who'll take my car in part-ex. Not everybody will do that. CBA with the hassle and would rather change one for another and add some cash.

Cheers.
Don't think it's happening at all now tbh. The guy is possibly the most difficult person I've dealt with in my life. I'm actually ready to go round the corner and just pay over the odds at Cheshire Performance. At least I'll get a 3 months warranty. Might just hammer the shit out of one so at least if it does break I get a rebuild within that time
