Sutty2006 Posted Saturday at 21:49 Share Posted Saturday at 21:49 I genuinely considered selling my red hatch next year to fund another life long dream….. with this not selling for £4k, I will be keeping the red hatch a little longer. It looks like the market is on its ass so close to Xmas. You could buy that now and double your money in May/June. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealExile Posted Sunday at 11:40 Author Share Posted Sunday at 11:40 Yeah, time of year and the economy with interest rates and inflation now being uncertain thanks to the latest bunch of clowns. It looks tidy without a deeper look and like you say 4k would be a bargain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don’t have 4k, and I don’t have any more indoor storage, and I’ve already got two so don’t want to be greedy lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealExile Posted Sunday at 13:14 Author Share Posted Sunday at 13:14 Nowhere to put it either, still got a project to move on which has become a pain, got it back from the bodyshop all shiny and black but loads of little jobs he's left me added to a recommission after being stood for near 2 1/2 years, I'm not so good at working in the cold these days so I'm doing a little each day, probably be done by Spring🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike. Posted Sunday at 13:46 Share Posted Sunday at 13:46 Have you updated your project thread, I remember you started one but haven’t seen any updates recently or have I missed them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealExile Posted Sunday at 13:59 Author Share Posted Sunday at 13:59 Long story but the A180 OBM Manta project was given in px against a non Opel project to someone supposedly able to sort those rear quarters, sadly he also didn't sort the rear quarters and last I saw he'd bolted everything together, gave it a light dust of black primer on the quarters and flogged it on at a profit 🙄 I regret it now as I'm 2 1/2 years in and still have no Manta, I'll undoubtedly end up paying top dollar in spring/summer when I finally get this finished and sold. The plan was literally do all the hard work, back to bare metal and the bodyshop to finish the job and then sell someone a nice sorted finished car, leaving me with a decent amount to get the Manta I want....never that simple though🙄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike. Posted Sunday at 14:21 Share Posted Sunday at 14:21 I didn’t know you sold the Manta, I presumed that was the one getting the bodywork done………keep up Mike! I'm sure in time you’ll get the manta that’s right for you 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
