hdi convertible - john306 - 23-06-2013
just seen this on ebay and was wondering if anybody on here knows anything about it or has seen it before? maybe where the engine came from (miles etc) and who converted it or anything else really. the advert is very vague and doesnt give the impression that the current owner had it done or knows too much about it.

Note how it says 'professionally' converted Chris. Something you will not be able to put in your ad

By any chance were you the professional mechanic who was responsible for putting together all the phase 2 306s? It might explain all the bits of trim falling off.

And when I grow up, I'm going to be a fire man!
RE: hdi convertible - Dum-Dum - 24-06-2013
You all take the piss but this is technically true.
To be a professional at something you have to do it as your profession (your day job). As I used to be a full time mechanic I can without hint of a lie say that I used to be a professional mechanic.
RE: hdi convertible - Scott - 24-06-2013
Not really, "professional" is used to signify qualifications. Just because I go on the Internet every day doesn't mean I'm a professional Internet user.
RE: hdi convertible - Grant - 24-06-2013
In this case, I am a professional w**ker and a professional drinker (read alcoholic)
RE: hdi convertible - Dum-Dum - 24-06-2013
^^^ nope, dictionary definition of professional is "A person engaged or qualified in a profession"
RE: hdi convertible - Niall - 24-06-2013
I stand by my previous comment.
Chris if you was a professional, you would do things properly!
RE: hdi convertible - Slam Wagon - 24-06-2013
I thought to be classed as a professional you just had to be paid to do it.

this is indeed true . . . . .in other words you can still be useless and be called a professional if you can find someone stupider than yourself willing to pay you . . .

RE: hdi convertible - Dum-Dum - 24-06-2013
Yeah and in the scheme of things (especially where ebay is concerned) this is probably the meaning of professional.
IMO its gotta be pretty bad for there to be no engine bay pics
