posibly going to view a cupra r tomorow.help!!!

[greg]

I got a spare drivers side mirror in blue if you need one

 

[Myki da Pyki]

Wouldnt buy it if it hasnt had the cambelt done tbh cos it means its not been looked after at all. The 60K isnt the important thing about it being changed, its the 5yrs. So its 3yrs over due changing

 

[Reuvers]

good point myki

(although he should check service history to see if it has been done. Wasn't him that said it wasn't done. Was suggested by someone else that it was getting time...)

 

[footlong]

I hade my driver wing mirror replaced- £134 from dealers.

going......going.....GONE!

 

[greg.w]

what?lol

 

[cuprachrissy]

lol i think that post might get deleted. no for sale shizzle is aloud to be posted anywhere, apart from the for sale section!

 

[greg.w]

oh yeh forgot about that actually.

could not changing the cambelt and waterpump damage the engine at all?its only on 55k mind

 

[Reuvers]

no...unless it snaps. then you have a big problem

 

[greg.w]

right went to see it.needs 2 new tyres.preferably 4.needs the big service done and the whole inside valeted for deffo

only the roofs slightly off colour.i said no but still deciding.

 

[Ibiza125]

Haggle with the price because of the down sides

 

[greg.w]

nah it looked a bit hmmmm duno lol

anyone know anywhere i can look for cupras?

 

[cuprachrissy]

if theres any doubt, get the hell out!

 

[s1l3nc3r]

pistonheads is always a good place to have a look around...

 

[Ibiza125]

Yeh there seems to be alot more sold Cupras on pistonheads all of a sudden. Although it is still good. Autotrader is also an option but a bit overpriced. Here of course. Ebay is sometimes good for a few. There is one on for £2000 just now

 

[greg.w]

ive checked all them folks.none around my area.im in scotland btw

would really like a blue cupra but theres none atall never mind a blue 1 lol

the closest 1 has got 120000 miles and no way am i going that much milage

 

[s1l3nc3r]

A nice example is worth traveling for imo the one i bought was nearly 2 hours away.....

 

[cupramillo]

Yeh i agree, def worth travelling for the "right" one. There are alot of dogs out there these days, so just be careful and more importanatly, patient. The right one will come along!

 

[greg.w]

right can you tell me how much YOU would pay for this please

2001 cupra r in yellow
55k on the clock.
good condition.needs a clean inside and out but thats normal
engine bays clean
sounds good
stainless steel exhaust
baileys recirc valve
no fading really apart from very slightly on roof(usual though yeh?)

bad points

going to need its cambelt and waterpump service soon-£400
needs 2 new tyres minimum(but comes with a set of alloys that have good tread)
needs a drivers wing mirror(been offered 1 for 30 quid)
tax out at end of month
mot out at end of june

and thats it

so how much would YOU pay if you went to see it?good low miles aswell

thanks
