Purchase!

Hi
Having just sold my Ka Luxury, i thought I'd go old school and brought myself this mint J plate 8v. See what you think. I'll have loads of question when I get it striped down!!

Looks clean an tidy, nice and red rather than flame pink:p
Quite different from a Ka but then I wonder why people get Ka's in the first place:rolleyes:

[Allen Mead]

Nice clean late example.

[_Steven_]

Very nice.. :)

[REMUS]

almost seems a shame to strip it :(

[dethstar]

impressive condition.

[carmad]

[stt]

i saw that on ebay, some idiot wrecked the auciton, i contacted the bloke to say id have it, but was told there was someone ahead of me,

it was obviously you!!

dont strip it out, its too good, leave it standard

[DarrenH]

so people that want to strip one out should use sh-te rotten mk2's ??

[REMUS]

yep oddball like yours :p

[traffman]

no, its just its a shame to see such a nice example be stripped, if you're going for the stripped out theme, might as well start on one with a tired interior.
Chances are if your stripping it out its also going to be modified under the bonnet etc.

looks very clean and tidy that. :)

The mere mention of striping seems to have got people all excited! I should have said tweeked, cleaned, stroked, and loved. I'll tweek the suspention, try for a set of champion alloys, and load up the boot with speakers! Other than that it'll stay as god intended.

Yes i got it from a nice old chap who had it on ebay. Twice it went on and twice it was won by someone playing silly buggers. I got a phone call the saturday to see if i was still intrested. He only wanted £850 for it so i offered him £950 with 8 month tax on it!! CHEERS. :D

[REMUS]

good to hear man ;)

[DarrenH]

you haggled the price up!

[REMUS]

lol generousity is a rare quality ;)

[Brett]

I doubt very much thats what simons (stt) implying there 0dders.

I saw this on ebay while he was looking at it, its an immacualte example, Simons plans were to basically fully restore it.

Look after it matey but above all enjoy it!

[Tony K]

zoom zoom!!

[md28]

minter there, look after it! :)

[GRAK]

Very shinny
The mk2 looks pretty good wearing red
Did all the red GTE's have the tan interior?

Believe so dude.

Seeing those pics has rekindled my love for Red ones. It does need the dark rainbow interior tho.

Looks to be in superb condition for its age.

[Tony K]

It got its first clean today. Autoglym paint renovater all over and a coat of polish and extra gloss. I expect it'll be dirty by tomorrow ,but boy, you got'a love red!! :p

[CraigGreen]

No. Dont have to love Red!

My Nova GSi is Flame Red & I will never own another Red car. Bordeaux Red as per my GTE is different though?

Its the looking after of Red & the attention it gets from the rozzers I dont like.
