BMX-RIG Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) To start of with as many know I already have an n/a, for those that haven't seen it before it looked like this... I still throughly love the car, but it was and never would've been a real one. I then found a website called 'tradecarview'. For days even weeks I had been scanning it for the perfect car. The wish list was rather long then this one popped up one night and by lunch time next day I had agreed the price and shipping ect. So here are two photos from the for sale ad. So this was early July and it wasent even going on the boat until the end of the month. After watching it online stop at various places round the world it was finally destined for the UK on the 13th. So I picked the car up on Tuesday and it was more than what I expected. I'll let the pictures do the talking as that's the best bit to look at lol. One mid way home... Then the rest were taken at work today That's all the photos I have, the car came with so many extras I didn't know it had! Looking to get it all under sealed, polished up and how I want it for Combe next year. So look forward to updates soon. Edited April 15, 2019 by BMX-RIG Title Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mugzy Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 This is a lovely looking car! I've taken a look at the website and it looks quite good. Did you get someone to inspect the car out there before buying it or just take a gamble? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BMX-RIG Posted September 17, 2015 Author Share Posted September 17, 2015 wow hope i see this next time im in MK!Im sure you will, as long as ive got it registered and sorted, just dont come down for a couple of months yet lolThis is a lovely looking car! I've taken a look at the website and it looks quite good. Did you get someone to inspect the car out there before buying it or just take a gamble?Thank you, i had an inspection on the car, but when i got the verification through, they basically checked the car was what it was i think. Things like the VIN number matched up ect. But i think its worth doing. This was my first experience with the website and from my experience i would 100% reccommend it.

BMX-RIG Posted June 7, 2016 Author Share Posted June 7, 2016 Thread revival! Thought id update this, not allot going on really, the car wont be road worthy till next year now. Theres allot to sort out and lack of funds and time means its taken a backseat. This car will not be rushed and will be done exactly how i want it before i start using it. The daily meets all my needs at the minute so im in no hurry, and allot of parts currently on the daily will go on this when its near completion. In the meantime tho the car is parked up keeping dry ;)Heres some random photos of the car and bits ready to go on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
