Hi Guys Ive just joined the forum today. although i have been on a few times in the past as a guest.

I have been after a 16v for ages but cannot seem to find a decent one anywhere! the few i have seen are a bit rough. im am very eager to buy one and have the cash waiting. i was interested in that one himbo had for sale but he said he wouldnt sell it for a while. i got back from holiday yesterday only to discover it was sold, nevermind.

anyway it must be black, green, silver or grey. no red or white.
i would prefer lowish miles but i know beggars can't be choosers.

I know you guys are passionate about the 16vs and have knowledge about a lot of the existing ones on uk roads. if you see any ads or know any for sale let me know. any help would be much appreciated. if i am succesful in acquring one there is no doubt you will have a permanet forum member.

thanks

try contacting PTS developments: my 16v is there having some work done at the moment and one of the guys who works there (not pete) told me he had a G plate one sat in his garage that he was looking to sell.
