S1 Turbo for sale, C reg, 1985, we bought this car last year with the intention of building a track day car as an advertisment for MEFmotorsport parts. Unfortunately so far we havn't been able to find enough time to work on the project so it's never got off the ground!

Basically it needs a full restoration although that depends upon what you actually want to do with it! I was intending to just make it usable for the track, not a mint show car so I was never intending to do a full restoration anyway.

A lot of work has been done already (by previous owners), strips have been welded along the inner cills, its basicall sound but not pretty! There is some rot around the rear wheel arches under the body kit. It could do with a new front valance. I has S2 seats and the door cards have been re-trimmed in black. The body kit is intact even some spare bits are in it. There are no rear seats or carpet, parcel shelf etc.

It has quite nice 16" wheels, I dont know what model they are, I'll check. The engine is supposedly uprated, cylinder head, cams etc but I can't really be exactly sure. It ran OK and I drove it around the block when we bought it before parking it up at my Mum's place. I think it would probably start with some jump leads etc.

I have MOT's from 1997, the last MOT expired in Nov 2004, the registration number is C321ANE for the anoraks! The recorded mileage, for what it's worth was 37,000. There's loads of reciepts for work & parts etc, recon gearbox, 57i kit, tyres etc.

Anyway it's got to go, my Mum's fed up with storing it and I can't see us getting 'round to fettling it in the near future what with mine & Tony's rallying exploits taking up all of our time!

We're after £1600 for it, no offers, I'm sure its well worth that, it's currently registered in my name and SORN. I have the V5 document here.

I will try and take some pic tomorrow and post them on here.

do you fancy using my series 1 then as long as you put all the kit onto it

 

Well, in actual fact, there's enough of them out there now with all my stuff on them anyway!

Thanks for the offer though!

Martin

 

Mine for example.

 

Would brake if enough interest, anyone need any S1 parts?

Martin

 

Whats the interior like Martin?

 

boo hoo

 

Hi Daz,

There's not that much interior, I think the dash is OK, the door panels have been re-trimmed in black leather type stuff, 1 pair of fairly decent looking S2 Recaros.

Martin

ta

 

Yes, several pics taken but cant e-mail them until this evening as they are in the camera at home!

Martin

 

be grateful if you could e-mail them when you can, Ta

 

Shame, I am keeping an eye out for a decent ish interior to replace some of my taty bits..

 

Turns out this has popped up for sale, chap claims its 77k genuine but the mot history says different.can you recall if it was on 30k or 130k when you sold it bud

 

for it been a 1985 s1 turbo and everything else id say its now 177k on the clocks at least... plenty of these cars pop up now cosworths etc and because dvla mot history only goes back so long people just try and pull wool over your eyes.. plenty of pants pulling down going on now.. like a sierra on net atm claimn around 57 or 65k on it that car is a 15 owner no history etc etc so will be i guess 157k
