They will be impressed with that Carl. Probably the nicest 6 in existence (Save for maybe one tucked away in a museum in France)A dude came this morning on a transporter to get mine, was quite a sight!   ________________________________________ 2005 Peugeot 206 GTI 1802008 BMW K1200R |

Same company as yours I would imagine, Trans..somethingorother. I recognise the white 205, also had a PH smiley on the right side of the rear bumper. Being a member of that forum I'm sure me or you could find him.The car was OK. It did scuff the splitter slightly but no real problems. Had it been possible I would have liked to have raised the car, but time was not on my side. Aesthetically although it looks quite cool with its "sick lows bro" I'd rather it a bit closer to standard. That said, the car was waxed last night and came up nicely. I'm sure it will be fine for what they need it for. Did you get an agreed value with them ok? ________________________________________ 2005 Peugeot 206 GTI 1802008 BMW K1200R |

Thankyou. It needs a bit of work to be back to the state of Carl's, but its not bad and is in mechanically "good" condition True about the white Rallye thing. I gave my black one a clean up today also. It still looks as tatty as hell!  IMO Blaze, Nile, and White are the most striking when proper gleaming.  ________________________________________ 2005 Peugeot 206 GTI 1802008 BMW K1200R |

The 1.2's suited it well. It may go back on them, but I'm looking to buy some pro race 3's or comp mo5's Its standard for top gear, otherwise it would still have the 1.2's fitted. ________________________________________ 2005 Peugeot 206 GTI 1802008 BMW K1200R |

Well, that sounds like a fair deal Have a nice time in Latvia?Rallye is now home safe and sound by the way. No evidence of piano's on the roof, or caravan damage Looking at the state of it would suggest its been involved in static shots only. No dirt flick on the arches, or brake dust on the clones and doesn't look like its been cleaned since I cleaned it before it went. Broken hockey stick hasn't dislodged itself yet either, which is a common sign of not being used  ________________________________________ 2005 Peugeot 206 GTI 1802008 BMW K1200R |

Looking good! Glad it came back alright and it's always a good selling point/boasting point to say it has been on tv.Yep, visiting gf's family, one of whom used to be a professional chef and they grow a lot of their food so spent most of my time exploring, drinking fresh beer and eating amazing food. Not sure why I came back. ________________________________________ 61k miles Ph.1 Diablo '6 Project Thread |
