Hi, my friend is interested in looking at a Astor black git6 reg v445lmy for sale.
The current owner of 3 months says he bought it from a forum member and enthusiast so I was just wondering if anybody still on here has owned it or knows any information about it and history eg?
Many thanks and admin please remove the reset button, that's 3 times I've wrote this out and deleted it accidentally 3 times now LOL

Is this the one on ebay for circa 3k!?

I have a feeling that was the one owned by Hazz I think his name was? (he now owns a manstone - good lad)

Think some trader bought it off him, but I think it had issues which lead to him selling it, a tappy head iirc?

Hazz's ended in KDU.

The one Buzz speaks of in Trowbridge listed on eBay (currently at £870) is £2k 'buy it now'.

    Yep that's the one on e bay at £870, says had offer of 1500 and refused, sounds like it's ready for a clutch though.

    It does look tidy, not sure what bits exactly it has on, it seems he's expecting a couple of grand so it wants to be absolutely perfect for that

    cahillscornerflag had it off here




    Came to Pug Run and left part way through second leg as you turn off the A27 into Arundel, Stan will fill you in on the exact point from the pdf of the route where this occurs.

    I've actual video discussion between me and Jsoulman calling him a pussy or something as he left the fold early. Should really review that pug run video and make the video but it's full of James and I calling everybody c**ts, fat f**kers etc and overtaking like a 6 driver and not a Sunday driver. I've footage of me overtaking Stan's beast too.

    Those were the days when it moved, albeit slowly...

    Jon, you never overtook me! LOL

    I do remember you almost did though, just on those final stages heading back towards Pease Pottage, you were driving like an absolute demon though, I remember finding it hard to stay in front. Yes

    Those were the days as you say mate. Thumbs up

    Hang about, yes I *do* remember this now actually, I remember you overtaking me on a set of mild 'S' bends. Yes

    I remember repassing you though at a later stage and then you chasing me down on the run into Pease Pottage. Yes

    We completely missed the left turn down the 3rd from last road at the crossroads after overtaking you, was mild S bends but I was chasing and saw the road conditions offer it up, really think if you'd have thought I was going to go for it you'd have left me after all I had James with me.

    Thankfully all the others close behind followed me and all had the look of WTF as they saw me turning around and heading back towards them to take the correct turn. What my video shows is me miles behind and absolutely destroying the pack after James went for a p**s as we all left Devils Dyke then having to wait for Grumpeychef to confirm he was lost.

    Who wants to edit a video of about 2 hours into the best and legal overtaking maneuvers? Time to go and find the footage Laugh Best line I recall after hanging up from Chris was "f**k it, it's every man for himself now."

    Yes, that's right!

    I remember now, thinking that's it I've lost the lead and got no more passing opportunities between now and the finish, and with that you went sailing off into the distance and completely missed the turn. How you managed to then get from about 10th place to 2nd in a matter of probably a mile I'll never know, but what a sterling effort...

    Ok, I've passed all the information I've found out on this car to my friend.
    I just told him the previous owner was a pussy.

    This is the one here in Trowvegas! Passed it the other day... Belongs to a friend of a friend (on Facebook). Bit low on the front IMO! The reason for sale I would have said is genuine as They are going skiing etc quite a lot!

    What's it like?
    Is it worth a 3.5 hour drive?
