If you think you can get it cheap, you'd be doing me a favour

Unfortunately where the front has had a previous bump all those lower trims are missing/damaged.

No worries...thanks for letting me know.

cheers

I can use either one, so long as it has the blue dials.

foggyjames · Feb 24th, 2010, 22:53

Are you planning to swap the electronics over? I've heard they're not compatible...

cheers

James

James; I'll check for what you need as well.

I have 2 cars this will work with, so it'll get used either way

Ah, excellent!

Just wanted to make sure you weren't in for an expensive surprise! Since I got my R, the grey ones look strange now!

cheers

I did send him a PM ages ago (Sat 20/02/10) regarding the clocks (as well as the front bumper) - I am still waiting to hear the price for the clocks.

I gather that they are pre me7.

Well, I have been unable to send PM's since the site crash...I posted in this thread and emailed Stu about the clocks at 12:48 on Saturday. So, if you beat me to it (as in sent your PM before that time), they're all yours, but otherwise I'd ask that I get first crack at them.

Probably a moot point anyways, who knows if they're even available.

I don't want to get into all that crap about 1st come 1st served. I am a property surveyor and frequently out and about with no tinternet access. As other people on here will confirm I've been looking for a set of these for a long time. At the end of the day the guy is going to sell stuff for the most money he can get so you will forgive me if I put an offer in anyway.

I think the fairest thing would be for us to each put an offer in. As you say they may even have gone already.

TBH bearing in mind my current financial position (crap) you will probably get them anyway.

I wouldn't consider it fair to deny you a crack at these if I had spotted them 1st. Esp as they are a PITA to find in the first place lol.

Further to my last post I have managed to acquire a set of R clocks from elsewhere so I am no longer persuing this set.

Thanks

Andrew
