That's a reason to get it sorted at the same time though bud ;-)

feel sick for you man :(
thats grim news - ive come close to parting with my lude recently but then i test drove a 5th and that helped me decide to keep my 4th gen :lol:
seriously tho - just park it out of sight somehwere and go drive some other car(s) for a week or two and then go back to your 4th gen have a look at it and decided then if you want to break it - breaking will be difficult to do after how much time, effort and cash youve put into it - still think its worth more to you than to anyone else whole or in bits ;)

cough - dibs on your wings west rear spoiler :oops:

i seriously cant deal with it being sat outside anymore, i spent x amount to have this engine done for literally an hour of nice driving with it, totally left me feeling robbed :( so i just need to get rid of it, ive got a list together and im just gonna list everything i have on it with what prices id be wanting - or take the whole car for a discounted price, just want it gone now :( cheers for everyones support though :lol:

When I set fire to the lude I was gutted and felt like throwing the towel in. I was very close to scrapping it.

Instead I stored it for a few months till I'd calmed down and the energy levels and love had returned.

So glad I did this as now I'm on the cusp of owning the car I have always wanted.

Maybe worth sitting on the decision for a little while?
