Snowyy Warning! This post is picture heavy! Hello fellow VStanced users! As you might (or might not) know I met Jfernando1 here in the UK (where I moved from glorious country of Poland) and we decieded to collaborate and open a garage in which we'd buy salvage cars and repair them and try and make profit on them. So we combined our savings (30000V£) and started to look for cars that we could fix aswell as cars to be daily driven. One day Jfernando1 told me about this guy that was selling his car "collection" consisting of various golf's, a NA miata, an altezza and a E46 bimma and since it's location was 5 minutes from our place (which btw we are renting for 600V£ a month) we just walked to it. Here're some pics Jfernando1 took while I was talking to the seller since he was also from poland 😃 . In the end we decieded to take all of them besides the MK6 golf R since it had frame damage that was unrepairable and it was sitting on brake rotors. But how you'll transport them? - you may ask. As I stated before, our warehouse was 5-6 minutes from the guy's shop so we just towed the vehicles with the E46 BMW simce it was the only one capable of doing it. And after an hour of towing we had all in the warehouse! And now I'd like to introduce you to my ride. It's a 2002 Acura RSX Type S in Fire Pepper Red Pearl that I bought a while ago. Stock af. I paid only 1000$ (750V£) and since it was in USA I paid another 1000V$ to get it shipped here. Currently I currently use it as my daily driver but I'll change when I fix a salvage 350z that I bought for 600V£. That's all for now from me, hope you have a good day/night! Bye bye!

JF1 We should. Also I've got the Mk6 Golf, and moved to our garage for a total of 150£V. The car was free, the moving of it on a trailer, was 150£V. As the suspension geometry is off, we couldn't move it with the E46. It is, after closer inspection, it's fixable, though it'll take another piece of Golf chassis from a donor vehicle. So that'll stay sitting around for a while. Added 49 minutes later: Spoiler: Previous Total - 24300V£ Golf Delivery - 150V£ TOTAL: 24150V£ left
JF1 We've bought a few cars, a Corrado for 300£V (1 Day left, so there's no arguing on the price, and it's been sitting 8 years, without a title, on VR6 rims (even though it's a G60), http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1900-Volkswagen-Corrado/253175299301?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131017132637%26meid%3D0aa5cc9c5b8c4209abf6abd318223aad%26pid%3D100033%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D2%26sd%3D162689973844&_trksid=p2045573.c100033.m2042). It also came with weird rims, that are apparently Moda rims. I've also bought three E39s. At two for 400£V each, and one for 200£V. The two that were 400£V both have some rust, they both have battered paint, and they both run (there are about 10 examples of this type of E39 on ebay, I've picked two specific £400 ones, and one of them has gone, because bidding ended, and the other still remains, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bmw-520I-e39/172885494497?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D47510%26meid%3Dea5dc9ba15a64bb88f345d10ec337c48%26pid%3D100623%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D6%26mehot%3Dpp%26sd%3D152714780219&_trksid=p2047675.c100623.m-1) (the £200 one, is a spares/repair on ebay, that is horribly modded, doesn't drive, doesn't run, and looks generally horrible, with many warning lights on apparently, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-520i-e39-spares-repairs-no-reserve-for-breaking-faulty-gear-box-auto-petrol-/292274610346?hash=item440ceca0aa:g:UocAAOSw0bxZurKq#viTabs_0) (Also ruined cars like that, which usually end up at a scrapyard, go cheaply). The reason I haven't got any pictures of the E39s (in RP), is that they couldn't fit in the garage. (Out of RP), it's because they wouldn't fit and my computer really doesn't like 14 cars rendered in SLR:R, plus the player car. Spoiler: Previous Total - 24300£V Corrado - 300£V E39 (1) - 400£V E39 (2) - 400£V E39 (3) - 200£V SUBTOTAL: 1300£V TOTAL: 23000£V left
JF1 I've swapped the wheels on the white E39, which were E46 wheels for some reason (actually, just couldn't find an adequate mod), for my R33 GTR wheels. Thanks, Soju. I also got and put on some old flares, which are exactly the same as the ones on the Civic. Told you it looked like the Civic's flares. The non-running E39, I think, will get an engine swap at some point, since it's plagued with problems, and I'm pretty sure it's completely ruined. It was on weird blacked out rims.
JF1 Thanks, Soju. Added 5 minutes later: There's still a third one to see still though. It's a weird OEM burgundy like colour.
JF1 Three, and they're all broken, other than the two 400£V ones, which the burgundy one of which, barely qualifies to. The silver one on weird black rims, doesn't run and is completely ruined. The white one is the best one, and that's still not saying much.
JF1 I'll take it. Added 20 seconds later: Why are you ending it? Added 45 minutes later: Update incoming, including, but not specifically limited to, the third of the E39s being shown. Possibly two other cars as well though, for a total of somewhere around 325£V.

Added 45 minutes later: Update incoming, including, but not specifically limited to, the third of the E39s being shown. Possibly two other cars as well though, for a total of somewhere around 325£V. Answer 1: Ok, PM me Answer 2: I think I did it badly and also collab with my bro.
JF1 That's good. I can't wait to see the new RP soon. Also incoming PM. Added 14 minutes later: Soju, have you got any parts spare that I can have? I'm going to post an update with the third of the purchased E39s.
JF1 So it arrived, about a few days after purchase. The car was instantly put onto the Nissan 240sx Phase Two rims given to me by Erwin. ((OUT OF RP) The handling of the in-game car makes the car slide around, but in the RP, it's not drifting). So the third of the E39s, the second of the better E39s, and the first to not be modified (Exterior Panel wise). What do you think? (OUT OF RP) Also, this car, if you saw the finances, was purchased a bit ago)
JF1 Thanks, Sleepin Monkey. Also, FlammableRice, yeah, it's weird, but the wheels that were on it had dry rotted tyres. Added 22 minutes later: So four Golfs, three E39s, one E46, Miata, EK4/9, 350z, RSX and an Altezza... We have a lot of cars.
