Hi all

Post by Boo »

I'm not a noobie to a Hyundai Coupe and have had my Gen2 for almost 3yrs.

It has been stored for the last 2 and a half years and has only done 60,000 miles, I always loved the "Frogeye" shape and thought one day I will buy one when the kids are grown.

Well, an ex show car came up for sale at a garage near me and so I paid £2,750 for her and with all the suspension, brake upgrades, wheels, tyres and chassis braces it drove like an Audi quarto on corners......albeit a very hard ride though :/

Since then I discovered the ride of a Mercedes S class and I can't go back........maybe I'm just getting old :(

Anyhoo......my plan is to sell her but I wan't her to go to someone who will love and look after her.

Oh and Hello everyone :)

That's the thing.....I haven't driven her on the road for over 2 years......seems a shame to let her just sit there so it's about time I put my sensible head on and sold her......any idea how much I should ask for her? :/

wouldn't know without pictures, but your not allowed to come on here just to sell the car, and before selling anything you need at least 25 posts ... after a while of being on here i am sure you will be able to price it up

As long as they're not too big you can upload them when you post using the upload attachment bit below the box you type into

Hope this helps
