after 3 weeks of headache trying to sell it, I have taken tips from OC members on putting the car back to stock...
that helped but had way too many funny people.
one guy i had to shout at his 'MR KNOW IT ALL friend' for saying:
''I don't know it sounds dodgy'' (since he didn't believe me that I'm selling it because i got a new car)

this is when i lost it.
Me: MATE! we had the car for 12 years how the hell is it dodgy? I bought it in 2001 I WAS 18!!! this wasn't a normal run around, this was a effin long-term car I've taken care of, I've spent money on servicing it, replacing old parts with new; I didn't care if it costs money, since I knew this was a solid car. MY EFFING suspension have never been changed and they still feel like new, do i look like i want to sell my car? NO! i dont! i cant run afford to run both cars, if i could i would keep it forever as a collection. just that i don't have any storage place to put the car AND NEXT TIME READ MY ADD before you decide to pop down. This an't know east london boy run around car.

guy went quiet and said to his mate: were going to give it a miss...
they just walked away.
hate getting people asking to part exchange...
asking if i could save the car for 2 weeks till they get the money...bla bla bla

in the end found a buyer from Wembly; sold it on monday, around 12am he even let me drive the car one last time, since i had to go home and get the bassbox i forgot to bring with me...
felt sad its been 2 days still feeling sad


wasn't the best GOLF GTI since it was a 2.0non Turbo. but i'll never forget it.

Last it looked

Sold It Stock

Still sticking with German... BMW 320d M Sport Highline (removed numberplate to clean the dirt behind the holder)

ive been driving the bmw for 2 months now, it really does pull good but damn those speed humps; feels like my suspensions are made of rocks.
