You don't do things by half do you mate.

Fair play to you, it is one sure fire way of ensuring that you get the best return on your investment.

Too many admirers, but nobody prepared to stump up and buy it.

Says it all really.

Cheers mate, I hope to have some news soon, I have itchy feet.

One way or another I'll be in something new in the next ten days.

I was considering buying it

but then I would have broken it/put it back to stock

figures vs time didn't add up this time

hope they do for the owner

it would have cost to much to put it back to stock

stock engine would have been needed, fans, rad, aux air pumps, wiring, diff, suspension, and a few other bits, far far to much

My view is you've had your fun and now you're having as much fun taking it all to bits - completes the cycle of ownership I guess?

Its sad to see the car end up like this...I suppose you gotta do what's necessary to get your money back.
