Just found out my work has a home-use program for Adobe CS6 Master Collection. Free Photoshop here I come :D \:D/

Awesome! :thumleft:

CS6 is harder to master than LR but is more powerful. I've got both but haven't got around to learning it properly (at all :whistle: ).

Still not sure how I'll feel once it's gone, but there's no turning back now 8-[

Good luck with the sale Phil :thumleft: Some lucky soul (with deep pockets!) is going to get a beautifully sorted car. A steep asking price in the current climate if you don't mind me saying so but worth every penny for sure and unless you're in a hurry to get shot of it I'd hold out for that money if you can. It will be worth that to somebody. Don't you dare break it, too many nice examples gone the way of the Dodo because they don't sell for what they are worth!

Thanks Paul :)

Yes the price is high, however it's a steal when you consider how much these things cost to build. Then factor in time (lots of), blood (lots of), sweat (lots of) and tears (less so :lol: ). I won't even mention how much of a financial loss this equates to.. :-#

Mule 3 will be a much more considered purchase :-$

Good luck with the sale bud. :thumleft:

However, with Moo on this one. £9k is well up there. I had nearly £50k in my old girl and achieved £7400. This was a long time ago when the Mk2 had a decent market.

I hope you achieve your price, but considering current prices, what recent high power cars have sold for, I think it's too high mate. I am currently looking at a number of serious MR2's at £3k less.

No comment, you'll be back [-(

Oh and remember guys- this thread is linked to his for sale thread, so probably not the best place to question the asking price :thumleft:

Hell, the price on these cars is ridiculous at the moment and it's the reason they're being harvested for parts. Such a waste really, considering what goes into them.

Whatever happens I'm not giving it away, however I would like to avoid the Tescos ready meal route.

That they might be, but over pricing yours will not help that. If you want £9k.... Get the spanners out.

Hopefully it won't come to that, but if needs must.

Good to hear you might be back in one soon though :)

So then... The car's provisionally sold, pending a viewing and payment this weekend :shock:

Slightly mixed emotions right about now 8-[
