Hi Folks

This is the car I bought as a non running parts car then decided it was far too good to break.

Much money later it runs and drives well has an MOT and I still can't justify having 2

This car has virtually no rust on it and is clean and solid underneath.

However it needs a re spray and a tidy up to bring it back to what it should be.

The story is it was broken into but not stolen, left outside with a broken window for a while then put in a garage for nearly 8 years and forgotten about.

It didn't come with keys or alarm fobs.

Locks and ignition barrel have been changed now on a titanium key as well

Auto box swapped as it didn't work.

Passenger door changed due to damage from break in and glass replaced.

Immobiliser and alarm removed along with a birds nest of wires.

At some point someone has spent money on this car.

It has coilovers, defi gauge controller under the bonnet (aftermarket gauges were removed prior to me getting it)

Strut Braces (had those for mine!)

Electronic boost controller disconnected when I got it so I fitted simple manual controller to make it work.

Make no mistake this is a project but it could be used as a daily driver while you are doing it.

Going on eBay as well, but if anyone on here wants a re shell or a project this is the car.

Tomomontana has seen the car in the flesh so if anyone wants an independent view give him a shout.

Bizarrely the complete opposite of several I saw before I bought mine.

This looks like a shed but is rock solid and straight.

Thanks :) I'm out tonight too ill give you a message tomorrow

I can honestly say that this is a fantastic starting point for a rolling project.

The shell is 99.9% rust free especially the sills, rear arches and under the bonnet around the inner wings which is very hard to find!

The car started straight away (after a jump) and ran very well, the exhaust sounds amazing!!

If I had space, I would buy it and rebuild it myself.

If on the off chance, the buyer of this prefers the stock look then I would really like to purchase the front and rear bumpers to match my side skirts :thumbup:

I bit the bullet and put a new battery on it after that lol

Cheers for the nice comments Dave but I'm still not giving you the bumpers!

:biggrin:

SOLD!! (hopefully :thumbup:)

Apollo will be joining the club soon with a bit of luck

NOT SOLD !

Apollos BMW has eaten its swirl flaps and said feed me some money.

Gutted for him, but it does mean the car is back up for sale.

Sorry Martin, gutted :(

 

saw your add on ebay though, this made me laugh! haha

 

''Prince Mustafa I'm afraid I don't offer shipping to Nigeria in exchange for you getting 10 Billion dollars out of your country, very sorry. I am looking into this as a payment option for my next sale though, so watch this space!''

I Have a definite problem in being serious for a prolonged period of time :nana2:

Glad it made you smile though mate

I'm sure you'll get one in the end

still here guys a great potential winter project for someone

Martin, am interested in coming have a look and a chat about this im only down the road in Ipswich so can make tomorrow anytime after lunch might be able to do friday late afternoon onwards or can do saturday.

 

Will drop you a text in the morning anyway as I cant pm on here yet.

 

Cheers

Hi Lee

I work from home most days so I can work round most times.

Give me a call on 07714 202707 or drop me a text.

The good news is I'm 10 miles nearer than you think in Badwell Ash.

I'm home all day apart from the school run this afternoon and most of tomorrow.

Cheers

Martin
