So things that put me off is how low it is and the fact it's a 3 door and I've got a baby on the way. Oh and tax next month (I've just taxed vento)
The car sounds awesome really like the look of it apart from bonnet and headlight easy to sort tho.
So what u guys think?

do it.
take decals off, fix bonnet and lights and raise the rear a bit.
Sorted.
then we will all love you again
Re: what to do??? - kentiiboii - 09-06-2014
Go for it lad, ask him to tax it before hand. :-)
Edit: its aidels :-)
Tbh 60mm with 17s isnt so bad. Mine was fine at 60mm.
RE: what to do??? - Dum-Dum - 09-06-2014
Go for it if he'll tax it or you can un tax the vento
That said have a good look over it as the guy who owns it is clearly not too bright (see if you can spot the incorrectly fitted parts) and if he can fuckup something that simple what else is gonna be wrong? How is it lowered, is it a decent lowering kit?

Lol, hadn't noticed until you'd said that...but that is a bit of a fail.
As for what to do...make your own decision, only you know which you want more lol.
RE: what to do??? - 1616six - 09-06-2014
I think it's pointless, I 100% guarantee you'll flog it within a month of the baby being born.
What's wrong with the vento!?

Seriously...been staring at those pics for some time!
put me out me misery!!
RE: what to do??? - WiNgNuTz - 09-06-2014
Maybe you should try wiping your eyes piggy!
RE: what to do??? - Piggy - 09-06-2014
whats wrong with the wipers?!
RE: what to do??? - 1616six - 09-06-2014
All I can see is the side repeaters are poss the wrong way round?
RE: what to do??? - Toms306 - 09-06-2014
Wipers are the wrong way round....the long one should be on the drivers side, not hanging 2" off the passengers side...
Edit - Yes the side repeaters are also backwards lol!

:Lmao: you know me to we'll
But baby not due till October so that's a long time for me to keep a car probably be sold by then
Nothing really major little bits and bobs, just really like the 306 tbh oh and the fact I carnt run straight veg on vento anymore but I'm in process of twin tanking it so I can.
I carnt see ant issues either tbh?? The guy is a decent lad I've had a play with pump for him (still needs setting up tho)
I'm really swaying to keeping vento tho its gonna be so much more practical with a baby. Well if I still got it then
RE: what to do??? - Piggy - 09-06-2014
My wiper over hangs slightly. But I guess they could be the wrong way round.
RE: what to do??? - Chris_90 - 09-06-2014
Any one intrested in this car it's for sale £900ono will make a for sale thread for him tho soon
RE: what to do??? - Piggy - 09-06-2014
£900?! Really? wow
RE: what to do??? - Toms306 - 09-06-2014
Drivers side one is clearly too short though lol. Flat blades do seem to over hang the passenger side, but not that much.
RE: what to do??? - Slam Wagon - 09-06-2014
Passenger side doesnt really over hang just doesnt bend enough to touch the screen for the last inch. (When fitted the correct way round)
RE: what to do??? - Dum-Dum - 09-06-2014
Yep wipers and side repeaters are the wrong way round. If you cant get that right you've gotta be a right mong.
RE: what to do??? - Hajman - 09-06-2014
I can't tell by the screen on my phone but is the trim strip on the front 1/4 also upside down?
RE: what to do??? - WiNgNuTz - 09-06-2014
Maybe its deliberate, and he's trying to be different?
RE: what to do??? - Danny2009 - 09-06-2014

Nope, the point should be at the top, that's the right way.

Gonna keep vento for now, even tho I struggle with how low that is, surprised there's still a floor about of times I've hit bumps etc
