    Riiiiight. Collected mah "Betty" from Valdas today and parted with 850 quid, but have received a mint condition (mechanically) E46 :)

    Driving experience now is hugely different, car feels much more stable, absorbs bumps much better and is overall great craic now!

    Only things it needs done now are rear brakes, handbrake and cosmetic stuff :D

    Supra head gasket fitted and all in a morning, surprisingly a very easy job to do. Amazing drive down the coast road in Clontarf :cool:
    If anyone finds themselves out by Clontarf, just watch out for the group of 50 or so men dressed a Vikings :confused:

    Were moving house next week and trying to clear out the garage and house. We have a set of rear leather seats and mats for a jeep grand Cherokee 2007 never actually sat in or used. I know there is a few marks in the picture but there not on them now it was just the way the were stored. Where is the best place to advertise them donedeal adverts.... What do recon there worth probably not much. I'm guessing they wouldn't fit any other jeeps.

    Welcome to the club, I'm going spare here without a car, so much so that I walked from my house to newbridge today (bout 6 miles) just for something to do, praying my parts show up tomorrow or friday

    That's a walk I've not done in years...and never walked it sober!

    Unfortunately the couch is a no go. The mother doesn't like the idea. So they have to go. I think I might just stick them up on done deal and adverts and hope someone wants them to make a couch it would be a waste to skip them.

    Overprice them. Then when the mother is at you as to why they're still here tell her no one wanted them. Surely shed let you make a couch out of them than throw them in the skip?

    (I think I may have entered my address wrong:o)

    While I'm giving out, why can I only see adverts links using the stupid Adverts app?

    No she would skip them. I'd use them in my bedroom but they would be to big and there is no where else to put them. I would have liked to make a couch out of them but I just won't be able to. What would they be actually worth just thinking of a price to stick on the ad.

    I'm really surprised it went so well, usually something has to go wrong!

    I have to get VRT sorted soon enough.

    Its hard to put a price on half a leather interior. Most people looking for a leather interior, are looking for a full set.

    These are only really suitable to someone who has a set of damaged rear seats in that colour. so your target market is small and made smaller by not exactly being a popular car (as in you don't see one on every corner).
    As a result its hard to put a price on them. You might get 50, or you might get 100. Or you might not sell them and then in 2 years time find someone needing a set.
    Adverts might be the place to put them, as its free to list and the ad won't expire on you.
