[Crimson_Killa]

not being rude but are you a non british national (nothing wrong with that) but that would explain it too as you meant (I Knew) and not (I Know)

[robfenn]

Maybe its the lack of capitals on new sentences! Never mind though, nice car, looks much better!

[Richy]

Wasn't this car up for sale for quite a while?

There's been a few posts about the car on here, i seem to remember the guy posting pics with his gran TT's lover in the car.

Colours nice, looks 100% better with out the chav strips.

Stickers ruin cars imo - always makes them look like they've just ram raided halfrauds.

hey guys , this is my old car , bought it 6 mths old , 2700 miles on the clock , fixed up at leeds from a salvage repair shop , £13,000. the colour sold it for me , i then had the remap and miltek exhaust fitted , and spending £1800 inc of vat , was crazy , but pulling out of his workshop for the first testdrive was the maddest moment of my life , like a 'kid in a sweet shop' the noise and pull of the engine will stay with me forever , then i spent £1000 on a better soundsystem , then i left the car outside all winter and the car was 3'' in water , and the crome sub was rusty in the footwell of the passengers footwell , and at that moment , i fell out with it , and put it up for sale , which i regret to this day , four years has passed , and i soo miss it , but the greatest thing cris taught me was my new found love for mini's - he traded his cooper 's' with 250bhp for the vx , it was fast , could put the kids in the back and go super quick , ive since had four mini's thanks to cris , so r.i.p. cris , as i only found out about your crash today , off another member who also has a colmar blue vxt , that i wanted to buy from him , to relive the sweetshop moment of the miltek / remap unforgetable moment . god bless to u cris xx amen

For those members unaware, Chris was involved in a fatal accident whilst driving his beloved Colmar Blue VX in August 2008. The incident was reported and discussed on here at the time so many of us will be aware of the circumstances. His VX is no more. Chris is sadly missed......
