I've just bought a 156GTA woohoo!
Talk about bargains,
I've just put a deposit down on a 156GTA.

Re: I've just bought a 156GTA and guess how much...
With decent milage and recent belt change too. You can't go wrong at that price. Does it have the 330mm brakes or by 'uprated front disks' does it mean 305mm but better-than-OEM discs?
And a BMC CDA as well, saves you paying £180 for one (you know they're worth it    )
A big  from me for that buy Joseph |

And it gets better! Let me know what they're like in comparison to your uprated twinny brakes. Just remember to tense your neck and make sure your seatbelt is on before you stab the middle pedal.. |

Nice one. Is this the one you were hoping for the original bidder to drop out on?
Any idea why he did back out?

The price is horrific for a seller I guess. I wouldnt worry, I think it's a one off at that price! I think I'm very lucky.

The seller just said he sent the guy an invoice and has never received anything or heard from him... What an idiot! |

Re: I've just bought a 156GTA and guess how much...
At that price are you sure you have purchased a complete car ??? 
Well done - and welcome to GTA ownership !!!
Oh....
And doing the Q2 is vital at the price you have paid - I'd drive it straight to Ned and have the work done straight away! |

I think I'll need to get used to the nuclear powerplant under my right foot before I think about upgrades, but yes it's on the cards a few months down the line. I might stop by with it on the way back from Wales. |
