    Millano red respray

    I've had quotes between 2k and 2.5k but I'm just like i say looking to future proof the car. I don't want to spend the cash and it ends up fading again 8 years later like my car has done.

    EP3 Newbie - EP3 Type R questions! MPG? Gearboxes> Reliability.

    If I'm honest i don't think that car is overpriced, most of these cars have passed through a lot of owners. if you like the car the good thing if its private theres always room for negotiation anyway. These cars can go from anything from £1500 to £7000 obviously depending on the mileage and...
