Liam_D Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Dude You have to keep it, Its gorgeous!! Surely if your paying to get it repaired its worth keeping? On another note mate would you sell those wheels separetly?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ricky@Race-Tech Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I'd say most of your problems were because of the SAFC, get some propper management on it, it would transform the car and make it a lot more reliable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Thorpy Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 wish i could keep it i will be extremely sad to see it go but im trying to save up for a house so cant afford regular repair bills im going to attempt to sell it as a whole at 1st but if no luck then will have to strip it so keep an eye out Quote Link to post Share on other sites

StarletCraigy Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 after all the effort you have put in i personally wouldn't let a head gasket get the better of me, if you going to fix it regardless then why not keep it, to fix it then break/sell it seems bonkers.

JAG Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Mate I agree with Craigy Fix it then its finally doneAs theirs no point fixing it to sell it to someone else and them have no problems when you've got through alll the effort and stress of sorting it outIf you break it dont fix it and if you fix it dont break it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
