Hello, Yesterday i was offered an '83 (A)Reg' White RS1600i for £1800, and initially i thought it was cheap, but after mentioning it to a few people, they dont seem too sure! The story with it was that it was nicked and they took the vin plates. front seats, door rubbers

, centre console, and i think that was about it but it was unrecorded. the car comes with front seats full decal set rubbers and a spare set of twin coils etc...bodywork wise it needs a o/s sill and lower rear quarter as its rotten at the rear arch, battery tray and ideally a n/s sill, but comes with new sills.
The crack is, i really want it, but already got a project and little time and space as it is, just wondering if it was an easy bit of profit or worth more doing the worst stuff to it and get an mot on it and keep it or sell?
Any help much appreciated! cheers!, Neil
