Damn - I've started looking at KW v3 suspension again. If the missus finds out I'm toast :shock: - it's always a bad idea to read the forums after a few glasses of wine :twisted:

Tom. You should keep it. No one will give you what it's worth. You just have to stop spending big money on it & concentrate on keeping it serviced. It is a good daily drive if you can control yourself. I'm in the same boat. Want to keep blowing the cash on turning mine into a S2000 eater. Keep looking at the super charger kits available. So tempting. But the wife's carrying so a baby seat is likely to be the only mod that gets past the accountant. She wants me to sell. But it's not worth enough to get anything near in condition. So what's the point! Bought a bike on eBay & use it when I can to keep the fuel bill down. :)

Well, no serious interest so far - I'm not sure whether that's a good thing or not - I might have to keep the car :lol:

What a shame, the market is seriously poorly at the mo especially for what a lot perceive as weekend toys.

Lovely looking car Tom.
Good luck with the sale.

Just as an aside - is there any reason why there can't be a "Classifieds" section on this Forum?
Otherwise the sale of cars such as this one (and Parts for that matter) can only be found by searching through model by model entries?

Hope you can't sell it Tom. Then your other half will have to let you keep it instead of buying somthing else really horrid, & in worse condition than the 951 :)

How about a trailer tent? :lol: Cheaper. Easy to park, Much cheaper on site. (very useful for next years national show.) Caravans arn't cheap these days. Hired one a bit back & found it worked out cheaper in a B&B! Or you could always hire a static. Now theres an idea!
