Hi Danny,

Do you know the sizes and offsets of the wheels and spacers you used?
I am thinking of changing mine and I want them to be the same sort of stance as yours.

Thanks,

Lumpy.

Great looking Kobra - good luck with sale

What you need now is a 250 swb - I know a nice black Kalifornia that would suit you down to the ground!

At least he will have somewhere to rest his beer on the DNA...

...while he waits to order the extra bits for the kit like bumpers, trim, lights....

...and realises just what a price difference there is with the Tribute far simpler offering.

I dont mate, I'm offshore at the min but will check in a few weeks when I'm home. There isnt any spacers used. Just the wheels.

I may sell them seperate as i have a set if 18"s with wider rears that I could put on.

You're way too busy lol! I actually think yours is one of the best looking Kobras out there tbh.

Just not getting the use out of it - no time. Still haven't fitted the Marchal repros I've had laying about for over a month now.

DNA is lovely but too rich for my blood.

Very jealous of your garage Danny, I could live in there (with my car obviously). Good luck with the sale - I wish I had the money, I really love the look of it. Here's a thought..............you wouldn't take a nearly finished MX250, a four pack of Heinz beans and the promise of the remainder at £10 a month from now until never would you??????

I was hoping this had come to fruition as part of a secret plan. No?

Nope had a few offeres for a few part exs but people want top money for theirs.

Had 1 guy offer me £5k and his S class that he said was worth £5k. He gave me all the details of his car and I found 1 the exact same spec etc etc on autotrader for £3k so I sent him the link and said it was only worth £3k. He replied with a link for a similar car advertised on pistonheads at £5k and assured me his was worth the same! He couldnt get his head round the fact that if you can buy a car exactly the same for £3k then his cant possibly be worth more!

Anyway, I cant re-advertise the car yet because the ebay app on my iphone doesnt support car listings for some unknown reason! I will try later on a laptop.

The valuation of cars on ebay is educational. Look at how many z3s are asking for over £4k when there are others at a little over £2.5k similar mileage and condition. Also how many get re-listed. Auction prices are even lower. But there is a market for cobras and so pricing can be established. Yours is not out of kilter.
