I did exactly that, but with no part payment (which in retrospect, I'm glad about )

anyway, enough's enough, its done now

Here's to many more miles under its new ownership with Mercedade!

Certainly will!

I'd like to get the roof mounted DVD powered up, got a replacement mirror glass en route (don't like magnified) and want to get the HK subwoofer up and running and remove the existing 12" bass box and amp.

That's about it for now.

All of that used to work ok. The Roof mounted DVD wiring went all into the boot, and was wired to a Sony DVD Changer (same type as fitted by MGR). The roof unit is an Sony XVM-R75 (same type that MGR fitted as an option) - instructions/wiring diagrams are on the net

- Then it was all connected to a BMW 16:9 Widescreen (with CD player), BM54 Radio Module, and MK4 Satnav drive, and Bluetooth. All worked well (getting nostalgic now!)

THE HK worked well - didn't have any aftermarket bits in it.

Still got the original Wing Mirrors for it in the garage loft (I retrofitted the power folds)

Very top spec car you have, the only options (that were) missing was traction Control, and Volumetric Alarm Sensor!

I hope all the paperwork history I supplied with it (to the buyer before the one you got it from) was still present.

All excellent info, thank you!

Sadly, I have very little in the way of paperwork and history with it, something which contrasts wildly with the blue ZT I owned for a couple of weeks last month.

My frustration with this car was that the seller had complained about a lack of interest, but wasnt replying to buyers a few of whom were offering him his asking price. I didnt know this was going on so Id got the cash together to offer a grand but seems my offer came just after the car had actually sold so I dont include myself in this.

I've had the same issue with another car on here in the last month - the seller has claimed they cant find a buyer yet half a dozen PMs get ignored.. despite that car still being available! its frustrating.

All I'm saying is - of course its your car to sell to who you want. But its supposed to be a club and its polite to at least respond. And if you arent going to - then dont complain your car hasn't sold!

Alls well that ends well, this stunning car stayed in the club and I found a great deal on one locally and didnt need to go to London

Hi, sorry im glad the car is still around. I did explain i thought in a message that it was a back up plan to sell for the £900. I was messed around by so many buyers on here and lost money from a deposit I placed on a new car that when a decent offer came up for it with collection from the garage my replacement was at i had to take it. Sorry I let people down.

As for the DVD player that was previous owner (ex member on here) he completely bodged all the wiring and i couldnt make it work so left it. Headlamp washers was a known problem to the buyer. I was very honest in the advert.
I thought I gave all paperwork to new owner but if not I will hunt for it and if wanted I will post it.
