I agree with Kev - they're just too loud!

Russman - I'll make you an offer you can't refuse.

I'll swop you a set of standard FTO trim seats for your set of Version R trim seats - straight swop - I won't even ask for any extra cash.
I'm nice like that.

Yeh guys your probably right.. or else ... with jealousy for my hot red seats...
Can you arrange to collect the seat covers MYFTO?

No deal Rusty (Can I call you Rusty or do you prefer Ricky?)
What might make more sense is to just swop the seats rather than the covers. If you want to do the swop you'll have to get your ass down to Limerick and I'll get my mate who is handly with a lump hammer to swop the seats.

ive checked out this car in southside, yer man wudnt even give me the keys to start it up, as i said b4 he has one of my friends barred from his place and im not on friendly terms with him either

ok , i got a quick look at it. it was parked outside passenger door open

nothing outstanding looking, a few minor cig burns, on passenger seat, cudnt reach in to see driver seat properly, the oil sump and underneath of engine are covered in oil, worst example ive seen of this on any fto,

What did he do to get barred from a dealership?!

he used to go in test drive the car's, 30 or so different cars, so he claims. although i was actually with him twice, now obviously he has never bought anything from the dealer, but TBH me mate can and is very sarcky most of the time,lol.

he has on many occasions resorted to wearing different caps hats etc, and yer man has finally had enough of him, lol
