Lol was it a turbo technics?

No , just a regular 160 brake V6 I'm afraid , tho I treated her to Janspeed manifolds and System , and a K&N panel filter , along with some slightly lower front springs and lowering blocks on the rear leafs.

I think my wheel bearings are completely gone, as i drive i can here a constant knocking/grinding noise.

check out www.ukcarbroker.co.uk

just don't tell anyone else ;)

and don't expect your dealer to meet you with a smile when you go to take delivery of your brand spanking new rocket

ps. as I've mentioned these lot b4... I need to point out that I do not know them, do not drink with them and do not do anything else with them... at all

How do car brokers work? Do they sell any vRS they have, or can you choose the options what you require and comes with the 3 year warranty???

Day Tripper, one way driver yeah. Sorry I've been a little bit slooooooooaw to reply to this but I've been a little bit busy again... house move etc...

To business...

I bought my vRS through the above broker a while back. They have an agreement with certain dealers to buy a fixed number of cars in a fxed period for a fixed price. As you can see on their site, they have v v v big discounts on "ahem" certain models. Just don't tell anyone else and drive second hand values down.

I phoned the bloke up and made my order, he then phoned my local dealer and made the arrangements. Local dealer then phoned me back and asked when I wanted to pick the car up. Inspected the car, got the car, payed with switch, job done. Tried to haggle over a tank of fuel, to which my dealer replied "for the price you paid you're having a laugh aren't you".

IMHO the service was excellent and there was no downside. I didn't have to haggle with a dealer, got a good price etc. The car is pukka (oops going a bit J Oliver ) UK, has three years warranty, variable servicing (according to the numbers in the log book) and is all together mint, well good... Happy Days

Just do your homework and use it to secure a decent discount. As for finance get a personal fixed rate loan, there are plenty of deals out there arround 7% APR. Note; APR is not the same as flat rate. Flat rate would need to be around 3% to equal 7% APR.
