i know its rude but i cant help it

i just bought a j reg chamade for 80quid yesterday with some damage to the rear passenger door and the wheel arch .

she started up with a bump start straight away after being parked for 4 months . i loved the car as soon as i saw it ,i will try to sort the repairs and keep the car as my beast .

i also have to apologise from people on here (especialy chris h ) defending ph1 s in every occassion . yes you are damm right mates ,a ph1 valver in flesh looks much more superior/sportier.

will post pics up asap

cheers

hehe you cheeky buggers Wanker!
i wish it was my place

as a matter of fact i was thinking it was a bit of a dodgy place once i left the main road into the woods , there was not much sign of civilasiation around at all . found this pretty cottage well easy as it was the only one around ,i have been hit by the beauty of the valver stright away .

the fella that owns he car was extremely helpfull ,top guy really
he told me that he bought the car a year ago done a few things to it and some fucker have smashed into the back door. the bodwork shop quoted him 700quid for the job and he decided to sell the car ,i called him just the day after he adverted in the freeads (lucky bastard i am).
anyway after telling him that i want the car he pumped the tyre up for me ,i have filled the water in ,tried to charge the battery of my car ,it did not work .it was well fuckin cold ,so we joined the mum and dad for a cup of coffee , watching discovery channel etc.

once we found out the battery will not turn the starter motor ,his dad helped us with his car to bump start it , it started up no problems .lots of white smoke(steam)came of the exhaust .
this guy ,his dad and me made a convoy of 3 cars to take the car to my mates drive in the same town . once the car was there i got the docs and paid the money .he was asking for 70quid by the way ,but i decided to pay 80 for his trouble ,and i did not really want to beat your record CHRIS Mr. Green

so i took those pictures while the battery was charging up and i am terribly sorry that you cant see the lovely cottage just on the right to the caravan .

well i have been searching for a decent valver for over a year now,and i think i found the right one ,that dent is not a deal really ,the door can be replaced even though its a rare color .but there is no damage to the sills or the roof and i am sure i can do a chet (wolf under sheep"s skin) untill i can find a cheap and cheerfull bodyshop to sort the arch out.

the make of the wheels were on the caps but i do not remember , they looked sprayed in to that color to me by the way but yeah it looks good . 3 tyres have nearly full thread on them and one will need replacing soon.

there are a few bits and bobs missing of the engine bay , plug cover , drivers arch liner etc. so i will be honoring the wanted items section shortly .

-an aerial

Aerial...can do, but you'll have to fight JB for it

plug cover.. havent got one

arch liners.. this is a phase 2, yours is a phase 1, dont know if they will fit, probably not
