I saw a poverty-spec Dart whose owner was trying to move for $18k!
It went down to 15k, then to 10, then to 7.5, now it's sitting around at 5 and still nobody wants it.

8 grand for the least desirable valiant ever made. IMO, that's a 1500 dollar car. |
Do you think he'd be willing to sell it to me for that much?...

Lol, the dude has no idea he has a M60 under the hood and not the M62 (4.4) as he claims. I had one E38 manual 6gears, 7 years ago. ![]() This is better. It states it it needs some rust treatment and paint overhaul but you get ac-schnitzers and original 195k kms. tamto w polsce to jakis straszny kasztan |
Maybe there actually is an M62 engine in the car, it's rated at 309hp. You can see the dyno result there.
poza tym 99% aut w pl to po dziadku bezwypadki, wiec chuj wie co z ta sie dzialo...

It's not measurably harder to bump an M60B40 up to ~300bhp than it is a M62B44. There's no difference in power output between them and the earlier engine actually has a higher specific output.

Probably the only Seat available in the US at the moment!
Looks to be a European-spec too, so most likely a relocation import of some sorts!

The legality of it is probably a bit questionable. |
This car has a Texas title and registered as 2005 Volkswagen 4D.
So you're most likely correct.

I actually prefer cloth. I've got leather in my Jeep, and they get HOT in Summer. Hot leather seats + shorts = no fun. The only thing I like about leather is it's easier to keep clean.

I sometimes drive without a shirt on really hot days and never stick to my leather. I think that's just an american leather thing.

Good interior colour, right exterior, 430BHP upgrade with warranty still left, best looking modern TVR by far, and a great list of upgrades-
> Nitron coilovers
> PowerSports exhuast
> AP Racing clutch
> Decent stereo
Under £25k seems like good VFM to me.

I'm thinking of saving up to buy it sometime in the near future. I don't want to approach the owner if I don't know how much it'd be worth if he sold it. I wouldn't say it's a classic, and it probably has been used it's entire life AND it does has small damage, I'd say value would be dropped a little because of that. What price range would it be in if he sold it?

There's this car in my street that I've admired for some time now. I see it driving around often, meaning it probably still runs well. It's a Mazda Capella (RX2), a 70's model I'm guessing. Since I've never walked up to it and seen what the interior looks like, I have no clue if it's been damaged or not; rust is my main concern, really. The left door of the car looks like it's been patched and sanded, there's a patch on the side. Now that's the only damage I know the vehicle has/had.

Yes, like that... except orange.

Not exact car in my street, keep in mind.
