Default Classic Type RA Wanted

Hi guys,

I've already got Mags on the case but thought I'd stick it on here too as Rhys is getting very impatient with me.

I'm looking for a late model Classic RA if any of you know of one? Pound notes waiting.

Looked at one on Saturday with Mags which was supposed to be 'immaculate'! You can guess the rest!!

Cheers

Rich

I looked at several "immaculate" ra's before going to SVA for mine. Seem to be a few more coming out of the woodwork these days so you might get lucky

Not keen on the non-standard bumper on the v6 but other than that not much between them without going to look. Check the bodywork carefully as with any 12 year old car, it will probably have seen some paint. Both will need mapping for uk fuel

I prefer the V5. I guess that's the right sort of money from a dealer too?

I'll pop down and have a look
