This is only my humble opinion, and feel free to put me in my place, however:

If you need to ask details/prices about this unique work of art, then you will fail the 'interview' section of your application.

Cheers

what happened to the recaros?

They were fooked, almost every foam bolster was split when I removed the covers to replace them. Worked out how much it would cost for the bolsters to repair and its almost as cheap to buy new seats.....lol

That is a STUNNING car :o

Somebody is going to be a very happy individual. There is nothing that I would want to do to a 205 that hasn't been done to that one (and clearly far more on top)...including a gorgeous spray job. Love it.


If it is still 'available' in about 60 years lol I'll be PM'ing you ;D

Good luck with it fella :)

the recaros always seemed ok. did you get the teins fitted that paul bought for it? i take it you are doing the right thing and sending the money that you get for the car up to paul's wee boy ryan?

who said I was getting cash for it?? And if I was, what I do with it won't be influenced by what anyone on here thinks I should do with it.
Its for this exact reason that I said the money isn't important when getting rid of this car. What is important, is that it goes to the right person that will use it and look after it. I personally think I have found the right person and you'll have to watch this space on what eventually happens to it.

I could easily advertise it privately and sell it for a lot more than what I'm asking for it. If you think I'm after making money here, you couldn't be further from the truth m8....

If you think them Recaro's were OK m8, there is something wrong. You can clearly see the bolsters (foam) is split and you can push it down on each seat on both sides feeling the metal bar underneath. The main hoop (upper section) costs £58 from Recaro x 2 and the side of leg ones cost £32 x 3 needed. Its not worth fixing them for that money seeing as the fabric isn't exactly 'as new' on the bolster as well. In my opinion, they weren't up to the high standard of the car, so I fitted stock seats back for now, with the intention of buying new recaros later on. I'm sure the new owner will carry this out. Well, I guess that will be up to them when they get it. It will be THEIR car then, not mine, not Paul's and not anyone's on this or any other forum to tell them what they can and can't do to it....

Can't beleive I'm explaining myself here, In some ways, I'll be glad when its gone...

dont try to have a go at me mate. the right think to do was give the car to paul's dad who you know fine wanted that car! you should be offering the car to him before anyone else.
