such a shame :( get some recent pics up to tempt me lol

Koleen. Goodbye Sweetheart
 

Right folks its time to say goodbye!

Koleen failed MOT and as I was planning on selling her after MOT anyway I have decided I am going to strip her down to her bare naked self!

So if you want something check my for sale thread!!

such a shitter mate
espech after the work of lately
faults coming up from everywere now :(

be sad to see her go

Be sad to see her go, Wouldn't mind selling it as a whole but without the MOT its pretty much worth nothing!

Koleen had her good times but as of late she has just been getting me down!!

its a shame man
some of its not hard to fix but other stuffs gonna suck

gutted for you mate, i badly want the alloys but dont have a job atm :( ive been wanting them for quite a while but gota sell my cyclones first

such a shame rich.

but onto bigger and better things ey :P

FFS! despite the faults its still ridiculous the amount of inconsistency within various MOT testing stations

Aside from the exhaust none of those things on todays list were even worth a mention on the last set of results

Real shame to see it end this way, but as a saving grace at least you can keep a few bits for project GTI!!

Such a shame to see it been broken mate.

What did it fail on?

Ahh Rich mate. Is a sad day indeed.

But like Lee said I imagine bigger and better?

What did it fail on mate?

How much would you sell it complete for?

Sad times Rich - you'll be back :D

I am currently breaking into parts. Most non standars stuff is goinng already. 2 x MOT's

Exhaust front pipe blowing,
welding in both footwell (heater matrix blew up and rotted through)
Had to replace all the tyres
drivers seat insecure
Rear Beam (collapsed, needs new bearings etc)
Front wishbone needed
Rear brake pads replaced
Handbrake 4% efficient!!

Now the bits in blue were picked up on first MOT and I got them sorted with help of Alex and Matt (Mega thanks boys)

Bits in Red were picked up on second MOT and now I cant be bothered and really cant afford to fix it!

See list above mate

Getting a little fun car for a bit until I can afford the car I want!

As she stands now minus the bmc and b&m I would sell for 1,400 maybe!

Will be back but I might not be french!!

that's not actually a great deal to put right man... although I can understand if you've had to sort out a load of shit only to have another load of stuff come up. nightmare.

shame, but onwards and upwards!

Can't be bothered with Koleen anymore! Seems to be problem after problem over last few months and I simply cannot afford to put things right and then spend more getting her looking her best/better!

stunning car mate!

As stated it is a shame considerring the work gone into kolleen and how great she looks. The list isn't that bad tbh, but I would completely understand if you are looking at bigger faster vehicles and prepared to learn about another car/buy a more...*ahem*... grown up car ;)

Enjoy whatever you decide skorpion I'm sure reading the progress of the new car with be just as good :y:

proper shitter Rich, gutted! wish i has seen your thread though as i wanted the BMC off you lol

Bad times :(

Lovely motor shame to see it stripped

sorry to here it failed. If you were nearer i would have put an offer in for the complete car. As everyone said move onto bigger and better things

Its a shame your selling up mate, your car always stood out from the crowd for me.

Cheers for the comments guys, I her hayday Koleen was best motor I have had. Shame to see her go but I just dont have the time to fix her back up or the money at the moment.

Breaking her down so if people want stuff let me know, everything must go!

much better without the sun strip! :-)

awsome pal, truley awsome, well done

That was about 2 1/2 years ago but thanks
