there are a couple of members on here that have been advertising cars for between 7-8k with slightly higher (below 100k miles )and they have not sold , there was a 2004 nurburgring blue one on auto trader advertised at £6700 that didn't sell either (i would have gone to look but i don't like the blue leather) all cars looked very good condition from what i could see .

It does look better in real life

In case you missed this when it was broadcast (I did). Good tips on how to hold up the bonnet vertically and how to sort failed VTEC (The chaps who did the engine rebuild may want to enhance their quality assurance manual.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__6DKc1jPdg

Haha it looked BS to me, an engine rebuild on these is rare and the seller bought it back?

Hmm

I quite liked last week's Merc 560SL in the US, and the take away is that you don't want to be removing an 80's SL dash - ever

Well after seeing some threads on here it is pretty rare to find someone to rebuild these engines and do a good job of it?

My 2004 with 39k on the clock was £12k. I too wasn't keen on the blue interior but I would have been stupid to not buy the car because of it After a few weeks I didn't even think twice about it!

Waiting for the perfect S took me 18 months - Don't rush, because it's worth it

I was watching an old episode earlier and they were fixing up a mk1 golf gti. I ended up noticing something that made me chuckle. As Edd's removing the steering wheel he is advising that you remove it with the wheels straight so not to adjust the steering...

Here he is removing it...



I noticed that Mike was fighting the steering wheel a little...
