Then I bought another one, pretty rare and sweet looking early V6 Redtop (auto) in Lagoon Blue

Image

On lovely TSW Stealths :mrgreen:
Image

Then it was sold when I moved my home to buy my beloved Red N reg SRi - ahhh I miss it soooo much!

When I bought it:

Then tinted headlights, new(ish) TSWs
Image

Then I decided to keep standard SRi wheels and then I swapped with Daves BBS style 16s lol

Image

Love that pic - looks like brand new from factory lol

Then meanwhile bought to sell:

M reg GLS Ecotec (paid £150 on fleebay!)

Image

And K reg SRi 8v (eBay for £1!!!!!!!)
Image

Image

Then sold all of these to buy N reg CDX V6 Auto in Rioja Red..
Only to scrap it next day because of 'that' and dead Alternator.. :(
Image

Then I bought after 2 months with Frontera lol mega rare Cav 4x4 8v - see my other thread.

And finally now bought back my Lagoon Blue V6! How chuffed I am! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Well, you know what? I know you lie red SRi. Guess how much Ive paid for it? £300 on fleebay with ling T&T, but it was soooo pink instead of red! A lot of T-Cut and AutoGlym lol.

That is blue Ecotec, which still was a bargain!

Image

And that my be eBay deal - in fact that £1 was only spend on can of coke on my way back home.....

Image

As you can see I was given that cav for free lol and with T&T too! :roll: :mrgreen:

Bloody hell, if i ever need to buy a Cav off ebay i'm asking you :mrgreen: :lol:

When i went looking for my car 4 years ago, this was the best one around (Seen some ropey ones that needed major work) and this cost me £550.00. Well done you for getting some lovely bargain Cavs :mrgreen:
