Whats the 3 buttons on the steering wheel for?

Had same wheels on my old TT and they cost over a grand with rubber lol, so defiantely a bargain.

Styling rather than buttons I assume. Some halfords Tat basically

In fact the whole wooden portion of wheel looks like it's some sort of covering tube rather than part of the wheel.

£250 = bargain, I am shocked at what kind of thing can be bought for so little money.

Saying that if I'd paid 2K for it I'd be too embarrassed to admit it so would likely fib and say it was a £250 bargain lol

Its supprising , those leather seats you have... If you sold those that alone would sell more than the car you payed for :eek:

SoliD · 26 Mar 2007 at 23:17

Bargain, nice the way you have managed to take pics of everything bar the absolutely hideous front end

good work

The best car bargain I have ever seen.

Except for Clarksons £1 car and that Exige that went for 50p.

Esprit

Mate if only id seen that first I wanna get a cheap car for gig use, if I park an E90 beemer outside some of the more dodgier places it's gonna have something happen to it, wasn't so much a problem with the passat.

Pretty sure it was an exige, maybe even an elise - definitely not an esprit!

DreXeL · 27 Mar 2007 at 09:55

It was an Esprit. A black V8 iirc.

I think he's referring to the one on the bay that was sold by the wife of a cheating husband for 50p.

That definitely wasn't an Esprit.

Unless he's talking about something else

Pimp-tastic bargain

Indeed. Get the windows blacked out, get some 20" chromes and man... dat car will luk da shizzle!

Hell of a bargain for £250 though. Looks in superb condition. Wheels suit it rather well too.

DreXeL wins, i stand corrected;

I always had an image of a black exige attached to this story in my mind for some reason. Maybe the overwhelming desire that someday i will own one

I distinctly remember the auction and it definitely wasn't an esprit.

Find an SS of the auction and i'll admit defeat

Burned_Alive · 27 Mar 2007 at 11:13

It definitely was an esprit, so find your own auction link, you're wrong

Tesla · 27 Mar 2007 at 11:16

I always though it was a green Exige.

Drexel wins

haha the wheels look gash.

Rofl, but yea, spending money to put alloys on it seems a little weird, did you have them at hand before you bought the car?
