I need an opinion. There's someone selling a pair of pop out rear hatch windows for 50 Euro's (roughly around 40GBP)

Is this a good deal?

I don't think he knows their value

You will need a lot more than just the glass, which makes it expensive if you can find the bits. I asked the seller the shipping cost for the glass which is a further 30euros. That price is around right for the glass.

But I mean, he's selling the whole kit and he's here local in Malta, not online.

If, if, its a complete set then yes its a good price. If not, no. As the other parts (seals catches etc) can be hard to come by.

Malta is in the middle of the Mediterranean. If it was near anything, it would be near Sicily/Italy. It is also part of the European Union, which was the biggest fucking mistake this country made. We USED to have the world's most powerful currency, but noooooooooo, we had to get the Euro and make life even more expensive.

When you come here, I will hang out with you and let you have a go in my Nova (maybe) alright? And yeah, I'll see if I'll buy them, as I got my pay today (a whopping 311 Euro's for a months part time) and I'm taking the Nova to the mechanic tomorrow for a steering rack change, water pump change (and buy, as he's gonna buy it for me), a CV joint, changing the return hose as it leaks (it's old and cracked), some uh, what's the term? "closing" of the diesel pump? As I tend to roll coal when gunning it in 4th, and tightening of the handbrake cable.

But yeah. If I have money in the budget, then I'll try and get them. As I'm also getting bucket seats for it.

I've decided against the windows honestly. In October we're gonna have our yearly event (Paqpaqli) where people show up with their cars. It's basically a charity car show, and usually they bring 4 cars you pay 100 Euro (as a donation) to take for a drive on the airport runway. Last year it was 2 Nissan GTR's, a LeMans (Or Touring) version of a Ferrari F430, and a Porsche Turbo. This year they're bringing a Koeniggsegg CCX-R, a Porsche 918, a Ferrari LaFerrari, and a McLaren P1.

I'm gonna drive P1. That's just an experience I never will have again.

Downside is you'd have to meet up with that weirdo Shawn, but you'd get some cheap windows and a holiday.

For a all inc holiday there at the end of sept i was quoted £1100.

Thanks a lot, you muppet lol

And PS: flights depend on what part of season it is. Usually we get a lot of tourists around the summer time (obviously) so that's when flights are most expensive. They usually drop around mid-October onwards.

I hear its cheaper if you just arrive in some make-shift raft. Its quite a popular alternative these days according to the news.

Oh yes. It also really helps if you're black and pretend you're poor (when in reality, you're not.)

(How do I know? When I worked in a different branch of the store I work at, I used to go exchange large bank notes at the lottery office. It was always full of the guys with wallets full of money, name brand wallets and Rolex watches with way better phones than what I have.)

The important question here though is, did Shawn drive the P1? If he did we need video proof, pictures will prove the P1 was there but not that Shawn drove it.

They didn't allow people to drive them :( You could pay 200 Euro's to be a passenger in it, but that's it really. I couldn't afford that whatsoever.

But here it is:
