Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!

Put me down for the kenwood mask and changer and aerial please John (seriously).

Very, Very sad day - but I am very glad to see that you're gonna be sticking around - I'm sure the other mods will agree that we need you around to help "keep things in order" around here

Hope that the Lexus has a big boot for trax (He He He)

Graeme

**Einstein** · 7-18-07, 16:56

Those returned bank charges are coming in handy Graeme..... sure you don't want the whole car

yeah, the 300 has a big boot

**Storm** · 7-18-07, 17:01

Hey, I assume those prices include fitting!!!

(I'm just stalling really - trying to phone the rest of the Scottish posse to get their bids in early - while it's still cheap - we are Scottish after all........)

**ElmerFud** · 7-18-07, 17:02

Glad youre sticking around John. I would just like to stick my fingers into this honey pot and bagsy the following:

Full closure module.
Folding mirrors
Reverse glow dials

Best of luck with your new wheels. Keep us meer mortals on the right track on here though.

Mark

**Storm** · 7-18-07, 17:04

LOL - Toldya!!!!!!!!!!!!

**Einstein** · 7-18-07, 17:16

Grill and indicators won't fit a 6....

modules and mirrors will..

John

**Maputosimon** · 7-18-07, 17:27

DEFINITELY want
Brake discs, pads, alarm, strut brace, lines (plus closure modules if poss), and go on then, the s/s mount cover!

Pls PM or text/call me.

**Einstein** · 7-18-07, 17:31

Disks and pads are not on the car... brand new boxed..
Closure mod would be elmerfuds
did notice a stiffer pedal with the lines.. clutch line has never been fitted.
strut tower brace looks good..

John

**Storm** · 7-18-07, 17:37

Feckit, might as well make it a worthwhile trip, I'll have the tax disc holder as well..................

G

**Jamo** · 7-19-07, 3:01

**N0DDY** · 7-19-07, 4:44

Sorry to hear of your Defection! It's good to hear that oyu'll still be around, and I hope you enjoy your new car. Happy non-mazda motoring!!

**Hot Cheese** · 7-19-07, 6:05

How dare you!
Seriously, I do hope you sell the car whole. It would be a shame to break it.

Having said that, if you do break it can I have the struts and springs?
