No more 7
2 Attachment(s)
As many of you know I had been fighting with my 7 for some time now. I got teh deposit friday and bought a new ride to play with. I wanna know what you all think.
|
TBH, sweet ride in the sense that its retro and unique, but fail because its not a 7.
|
mang, hate to hear about your 7, but that's a cool looking car, i've seen lots of those here lately, ..maybe it's a sign :scratch: :scratch:
|
Thats not a camo bonnet is it?
|
well those are not for me..i see them as a chick's car but thats my opinion. from the pics it looks like a really clean car. posting any pics of the interior or engine?
|
Well because my closest friend just sold his VW from hell (looks identical to yours), I can't say I'm happy for you. But that thing is really clean. Hopefully yours won't treat you like it did my boy... That was an Epic Failure.
|
My friend loved his '86 GTI. I would like them better if they weren't fail-wheel-drive.
|
Dont worry I am keeping parts to build a 12A for a possible project in the future. Namely a lotus 7 frame with a streetported 12A or a sandrail 12A. I ll post more pic after I get it cleaned and take it for a photo shoot.

If only I had more garage space. :D Someday I'll probably buy a junked Miata and start building one. Jamie |
Jamie, instead of even considering using Rosie for a doner, find a $500 or less 7 that someone is parting with due to it being an unsalvageable rust bucket.. case in point: http://www.ohiorotaries.com/smf/index.php?topic=3049.0

Dave, the link isn't working...
|
Nevermind. I got it. :bigthumb:
|
just throwing that your way. who knows, it could spark a good project...and with the 81 comes the factory FMOC. i've had really good luck with 81-82 rotaries..
|
Dude, you've sold your 7 and bought a chick car! :( I hope you got visitation rights so you can still see your testicles from time to time... :)
You'll find no love for VW or Audi coming from my direction. They're great as long as they run, but I will never again try to take a wrench to one... |
I have a soft spot in my heart for the cabrios, but mainly because the front looks like an old GTI. I could never bring myself to buy one. Mainly because of the criticisms you are currently facing. They just seem to be a girl's car. If you like it though, then I say more power to you.
It would certainly make a great sleeper car. Nothing would hurt anyone's pride more than getting wasted by a stock looking VW Cabrio. :D |
well maybe losing to a hyundai excel or a minivan....
|
I ll be the first to tell you this is a girls car. But it get 30+mpg its a convertable its kinda fun to drive.
|
30mpg speaks loudly in times like these. i get about 15mpg in my 8810AE and around 17 in my FB's. chick car or not you're still saving money on gas!
|
This wont even be my DD. My DD is a camry that I can get 32-35 MPG in. I hope to keep this till spring then resale for alot more than I payed for it. I only paid 1k for it and runs and drives fine.
