[/quote']lol got it for £10k or there abouts,Purely insurance bud, i got another 3 points a few weeks back taking me up to 6 points in total.Plus i commute to work and a VR would be to thirsty.Am working on a side project of buying a VR and keeping it in storage to do up and use occasionaly, but finding the right "temp" insurance that doesnt cost me £2k a year for extremely minimal use is ridiculous Link to post Share on other sites

thegoth 5 Posted April 22, 2010 Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 but at the end of the year he'll still have a car worth 8k rather than empty pockets and a huge carbon footprint. Fair play to you James. Even if you are old before your time ;-) Link to post Share on other sites
Jamesr_VR6 0 Posted April 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 ^^aye there were many factors that swayed me,Diesel, holds it value, power, luxury etc etc.love making the chavs in their saxos look stupid aswell Link to post Share on other sites
jesterwalker69 0 Posted April 22, 2010 Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 Yer but nige empty pockets means less weight when he got on the strip and dragged with us all at Action But true, least you got something you can salvage some money from at the end and THEN buy a VR yer?! lol Link to post Share on other sites

Miss-Vw 2 Posted April 22, 2010 Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 Lol James!! I saw the pic of that Lexus on your facebook profile but didnt know it was yours, tut tut poor mans merc Hehe, only jokin!You'll be glad you didnt buy mine when i was thinking of selling last year, its been a right b*tch lately. Currently driving around with all the plastics from the dashboard on the backseat!! What is your cheapest quote for insurance on a VR? Im paying £120 a month only third party for mine..., it may dent my bank account but the smiles are all worth it. Still though, although its a Lexus, it does look quite smart Link to post Share on other sites
