Yeah the plate is wicked...got it on 3 years retention at the moment. tempted to fit it although, and i know this sounds silly, I like my current numberplate. Seems almost sentimental...

Bought it with a car that I broke...had it on the market a year ago for £2500, but had no takers. So would probs be looking at 2k now. Although I really don't have much of a clue with plates, does that value seem way too high?

heres a pic of it on the car i broke;

Great looking car mate!! Price sounds reasonable, though unfortunatly too much for me to spend what was wrong with the car?

Not a lot to be fair. Just used it for some parts and made a few quid breaking it. sad truth is that a subaru is worth more in parts than as a whole.......however the way i figured it was that another less bug on the road made mine worth more

Got my mountain bike in bits today round here. Have to buy a new crank cos the bloody pedal has cold welded itself on and i want to change it....had a look online at new cranks, the most expensive was as much as the lateral billet scooby crank :O just getting into mountain biking and it seems to have a worse modding culture than bloody scoobies.

Yup, thats exactly what it was, likewise the exhaust makes it sound faster than it is, but was also getting at going 45mph on a main road.

Not really my cup of tea, but very different and have never seen anything like it before. Those horns look cool, even more so when they can be seen through the grille.

don't think that one would be really that practical for any form of spirited driving... most of the things ive got planned for the next year are cosmetic. only mechanical ive got at the moment is a quieter back box. getting sick of how noisy mine is. been driving round with ear plug in lol

think thats the first time Ive ever heard anyone wanting a quieter exhaust! lol Mine will all be cosmetic too and some point alloys. I think anything performance wise is going to start getting very expensive.

trust me the exhaust is stupid loud!! actually sent it back to H&S to rebaffle it which they did but it hasn't lasted ( too much overfueling on overrun and anti lag ), told me i would have to pay if i sent it back again. crap wipers are the most annoying thing lol
