I bet your knackered mate....With all that polishing that you did it was counter productive I would of just used the AG super resin polish which cleans up paint well plus it has a small bit of protectant in it,and then finish off with a coat of wax...Still looks good though.SJ.

To be honest its hard because mine is a real genuine stunning example and i am picky!! Its a hard decision as i like my Bugeye and intended to keep it and look after it, but seen an S204 with 27k on the clock and also mint and fancy that as well??

I could keep the Bugeye and spend some on the suspension and bushes etc but i could also consider the S204. I love the S204's and although i have never driven one they get raving reviews?

Its a hard decision really.

You found this advert quick and remembered it on here. Very observant indeed. Lol

Lol, works a bit quiet....it’s a lovely motor mate but I’m guessing you’ve never properly took to it, I’m not a fan of the bugeye look personally but plenty love it over the blobeye. Each to there own.

Yes i am considering my options.

I can either keep the Bugeye and spend money on good mods, or i could just buy the S204 which already have revised suspension and are supposed to be really good standard.

I decided between Scooby Clinic and Thwaites in the end as they were both very very helpful and responded to all my questions. Roger Clarke did not even respond to any of my e-mails and i sent a few??

Its a hard choice for me as like i said the Bugeye is exceptionally clean and the history is just unreal. Its been really well cared for and i think it would be very hard to find another like it ? However, the S204 is also low miles and stunning and these are extremely rare especially in this condition. However, the S204 is a lot more money?
