    Testing the water with my Naples valver

    OK, as some of you may know, I have broken my foot in two places, rendering me crippled for a while. Thing is, I may have also torn my achilles tendon. If I have done this, then there is no point in me keeping my car as I will be on crutches for a fair few months.

    So, it may be up for sale soon to a lucky person, lol.

    Spec is a standard Naples red M reg 1.8 16v.

    Decat
    Full stainless sytstem (I think it's a devil one)
    Standard airbox with ITG panel filter, but will throw the piper X ind kit in as well.

    It's having the cambelt and water pump done at the minute. The car is on 113k, but has loads of history and has been maintained regardless of cost.

    The bodywork is brilliant, but there are a few niggles. The arches are starting to bubble along the bottom lip, nothing major, but I don't have any pics. It's not spread to the sills or anywhere else.

    It will have turbines on it too.

    It has 12 months MOT, but will be declared SORN.

    Pics:-









    I'm thinking ballpark figure of £1900 as it is in really good condition, just ask Jesus

    I will let you guys know for deffinate once I have had the MRI scan on my ankle, but if anyone is interested then let me know.

    Cheers




    A very sad & disheartened Pikie

    yup, as said car is minty on the outside and the interior is in fantastic condition too... £1900 is a bargain, however I think you should keep it anyway mate, my pal has left his sat for 8 months and it's rate!

    It will just upset me more seeing it sat there and not being able to drive it. 2months is the longest I could leave it.

    I will have to see what the hospital say.

    If I sell it, I will get another one, just depends when
