Galliano Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Thats a nice example mate, I can see it looking 10 times better when you've added a few subtle choice mods like you did with your SR.Seems a fair price for what your getting too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JAG Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 Underseal?Whats that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Iwan Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Some advice; Double check the tax band on it. If it's recently imported (within 2007), it'll be under the new emissions tax band system.My brother imported his 1999 Evo 6 RS back in early 2007. Usually you'd expect to pay around £180-£200 for tax, but due to it being a recent import, he's now paying £400 in tax!Just a heads-up. Very nice car though, looks very clean .

kevink Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Congrats man! Welcome to the Voc!have fun with it but not to much a little note: the belt might be able to go up to 100k but i always have heard and read that 80k is actualy better.You don''t want the think off it snapping in the first few weeks of ownership.Just a word a caution, i bet there are belts that go 120k+ but i know of starlet belts snapping at 80k.

Galliano Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Nice one Jag buddy, Glad to see you got it And nice to see you bargained him down too, i think it intimidates them when you start talking about the starlets in a way that you love them, they know they wont win in an argument.
