Default MK3 XR3

Really dont wanna do this, but its sat for over 6 months and is now costing me money to store it!! Its gonna be at least a year until it gets looked at due to other projects so its gotta go!!

Apparantly the car used to belong to the Royal Family, how true that is i dont no, altho it does have a 5 digit plate and theres a plaque on the drivers side sill, but the writing has worn away!!

It does need some work, scuttle on the near side is rotten (have a replacement panel) the near side front floor plan needs welding, as do the lower rear quarter panels!!

Its pretty much complete, not sure whats there engine wise tho, the bottom end is bolted in but thats it, there were a few spares in the boot!!According to the previous owner the bottom end has been rebuilt!!







Looking for around £700

Car is located in Uxbridge atm!!

Cheers
