Hey there :Hello: ,

I'm Roy Alfonsi (20 YO)from the netherlands, sorry in advance for pore grammar.
I was searching for a 4th gen lude at first becouse one of my best buds wanted a 5th gen and didnt want to make him jelours. He couldnt affourd the montly costs fore a lude so he bought a Micra (yes, from lude to micra....).
After searching fore a wile and making some test drives I desided to go fore a 5th gen anyway, the few 4th gens that where up fore sale where complete wrecks or fare to expensive.
So yesterday I came by for a test drive, great car!! 163000km of experience (101283 miles), beige enterior, airconditioning(!! 8-) pretty rare on a 2.0I isn't it?), and free scretches on the bumpers :|
I figured the scretches wont be that big of a problem since I'm planning on getting a nice front / rear lip and subtile side skirts after witch a fresh paintjob. She's a great drive!!! It's a shame I have to wait a month before she can stand on my drive way: The seller wanted €1950,- (1690,- GBP) a proper price since I couldn't find any isues with the car except for the scretches and I wanted to chance in my old vauxhall vectra but he wouldn't give me more than €450,- for it :evil: wile I was counting on €800,- so I had to make a down payment on the car so he would hold it to the end of the month (did not feel like going red this mont :nono: ). This will proberbly be the longest month of my live but hey, it will be worth the waiting.

Pics will follow

Greatings Roy
