Cheers Doug... I'll post up once I've found "The One"

Oil Service every 3000 miles

@ leecalcars - Think it was probably the Lancastrian/Mancunian accent that must have thrown you

Hey, no worries mate.

As I mentioned, if you want some ideas for your advert, by all means have a look at how I advertised mine.

I would very seriously recommend sorting out a good advert then getting it put up on Ebay.

Clicky

Jeff.

Nice! What happened to the original seats? Quite like your bonnet vents. They seem to be a better fit/blend in better than others. Where did you source them from?

Hi Lee,

Not bad ta matey, hows things with you?

Yer motor's looking pretty sweet mate lovin the carbon wing mirrors

Yeah, I was at TOTB last month and whilst wandering around we ended up at the GTROC stand and there was a pretty stunning R33 GT-R V Spec in Midnight Purple. Basically my missus and one of my mates were both like "why dont you get one of these...." I've always been a big fan but originally I just thought Id wait till I had R34 money but I found myself agreeing... so here we are... Im hoping to have one sorted by the end of the week, then its just a (2 month) waiting game till it arrives from Japan.

Jeff.

Know the feeling Jeff.

I was stuck between buying an R33 GTR V-Spec, Scooby Type R/P1 or an Evo 6! Decided the Skyline would rape me on fuel (2.6 Twin Turbo), and the Scooby beat the Evo over the sound!

All insurance quotes were exactly the same price!

Doug,

Its not sold................ yet so I'll keep you posted... but the price IS right

The purple one sold for £17k... a bit over £20k if it had of been coming to the UK (which it isnt).

@ Jasemac...


Very nice mate... the only thing Im personally not that keen on is the Honda Type R sticker

Other than that....
