Volksdevil Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 I don't think you're the Philip I thought you were but... I haven't seen any sarcastic comments about you since you last visited? But here are some tips. Firstly you've posted this topic in the 'Cars Wanted' section, and used an ambiguous title 'TOPIC ME' which isn't very descriptive, and doesn't really mean anything to anybody. And, no disrespect but your posts are hard to understand...If you read your posts back I'm sure you will see that they are hard to make sense of. Just pressing 'Enter/Return' now and again can help! I think you just need to slow down a little and focus on what you want to achieve here, then people will be better able to aid in helping you find what you want. It seems you're here to find (From what I can work out?!) either a whole Manta shell, or certain parts. You've already started a 'Wanted' topic here so that's a good start, although you could format it better, using a list/better language/no CAPS LOCK. Your title is OK, but you could have used for example: 'Manta shell and/or parts wanted'. That bit of effort makes it instantly more understandable what your topic is about, then people who have a shell or parts are more likely to 'Click it...read it...possibly reply to it'. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Abbott Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 (edited) I am trying to respond via a tablet. It's hard. If you're doing the same I emphasise as its difficult. Your posts are difficult to read and the SHOUTY text doesn't help. We have been burnt in the past by peoplby by scammers so I'm sceptical. Slow down mate and let us help. Even the PM you sent me re parts is aggressive due to its SHOUTY nature and bad etiquette. Is English your first language? We area good bunch here and we like to help fellow Opel owners Good luck with your project Edited April 9, 2016 by Kevin Abbott 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volksdevil Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Haha, hey we all start somewhere mate And I doubt you've offended anybody, your post there explains what the crack is, and is much better/easier to read. Good luck finding what you're looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Abbott Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Glad to hear you're one of us Phil and not computer generated. Get the gigs on and start the parts hunt. I have lots of parts and have just recovered an exclusive from Gateshead that my brother and I are restoring. We have broken a couple of hatch in the last few year and the parts live on to save many a manta. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigJohn Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 She was raised in Chester St. Grasswell, just off the A182 Newbottle Rd. I haven't been back in Houghton for years, I hated the drive over the A66 from Lancaster back in the day when it was single carriageway, it was shocking in rain and fog. Then the A1 from Scotch was, and still is, always dug up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
