on the hunt

[mad porter]

Hi all
thought I'd say hello as I've been lurking for a wee while now!
At the moment I'm searching for a Legnum VR4 but not in a rush
as I'm "waiting for the right one" as they say.
Been looking on Autotrader there's a few at Ebony and Ivory
anyone dealt with them before?
Current motor is a V6 Cougar (is that swearing on here? lol)
2001 Y plate so hope to get a reasonable trade in for it,
but its not very practical to get all my GSD's in!
and could do with a bit more gggoooo.........
I'll try not to ask tooo many silly questions
cheers John
btw liking the site

the onlu silly question is one you don't ask, and the only swear word on here is subaru

apart from ones on autotrader there are some members cars for sale, have a look in the classifieds section.

Buy a members car - UK classifieds as brad says. You should be able to find most of the car's history here on the forums.

Hi and to the club. I hope you find a car soon.

Welcome!

There is a little feedback on Ebony and Ivory on here, positive I believe. I have seen a car supplied by them and it was very straight and clean.

You're welcome whatever car you have - we have a number of members who have cars other than VR-4s, though they are our primary focus - so make yourself at home!

You'll find a vast amount of info on the forums, but please don't hesitate to ask if you get stuck - we're happy to help!

cheers for the warm welcomes folks
I've been through a lot of the posts,
but will search some more when I get in later,
obviously some I cant view till paid up,
been looking at for sale section as well
so lots to think about.
Although I'm in Scotland I dont have a problem travelling
to find the right one.
Cheers John

Hi, welcome to the site and good luck in your search.

Have you seen this one it seems to be a good price with the very desirable recaro interior.

Yes... that one's been the subject of debate before - Isn't that the one where the 'current owner' came on to assure us it was all pukka?

[Brunty]

Apologies I didn't realise.

The only one I can think of was the cat D write off visited by Red/Marcus and Kieran+gang.......it's not that one is it?

Nah, it's not *That* one, but it's in a similar state.

The one you're thinking of is here - read on from Post #19.

Just goes to show you..... Buyer beware and always get a car checked!

[mad porter]

Thanks for the links/info
now I want half the club with me when I go to view anything .
Without wanting to start the debate over which is best
I prefer manual gearboxes,
dark colour,not too bothered about year,
reasonable mileage and much cheepness
doesnt everyone!!!
