rallyfever Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 (edited) Hi All, I need to find a new car by next Friday as thats when my company car goes back. I am looking to pay max £7k and although would prefer to stay scoobyfied, I am open to suggestions. My ideal option would be an STI Type R or RA. Please post your suggestions on here and if there is a link too, that would be much appreciated. Cheers in advance Gary Edited September 28, 2009 by rallyfever

rallyfever Posted September 19, 2009 Author Posted September 19, 2009 (edited) Nothing wrong with Cullenmin's car at all, cracking beast and could have been mine if I had got my finger out and said I would buy it. The new buyer is gonna have a cracking car, it he deal falls through he says he will get back to me. Cheers Gary Edited September 19, 2009 by rallyfever

Also if you want an ra do a search for carl davey on google as he is selling his ra for 7k ish and it is a well sorted car. And i agree cullenmins car is sweet

Cheers Gary
rallyfever Posted September 20, 2009 Author Posted September 20, 2009 Hi Bud, Never really fancied an RB5 for some reason, no idea why. Think I will stick to the type r or ra route for now. Cheers for the offer Gary
rallyfever Posted September 21, 2009 Author Posted September 21, 2009 e-mailed and tried to contact loads over the weekend, only a couple got back to me, 1 saying there was already a deposit paid on it, and the other to say they are not sure if they were selling anymore - hopefully more progress today. Any other cars you have seen please post a link on here, or pm me the details. 5 days and counting until I need a new car!!!!!
