BAD POINTS

power steering pump leaks a little bit

diff makes a little noise when you plant,i have a new diff(from north yorks spares) but it is not fitted yet,but the diff is fine at the moment i done over 150 miles this weekend and it was great,but i would not boot it in first and second just incase it let go...

the sump gasket is leaking a bit,but again i have a full bottom end gasket set new in the box,just not had time to do it,i also have 2 genuine ford rocker gaskets as well...

the exhaust knocks on the tunnel of the car and can be a bit annoying on a long journey,it needs to go on a ramp and be moved about a bit...

there is a couple of marks on the bodywork as you would expect,but nothing too bad...

i am a bit unsure about how much to ask for this car,as it is a very rare and solid car but needs a few bits done, all the parts are there i just dont have the time to do it.......

so i am open to sensible offers,please dont rape me









i will do some more of the engine and inside ect........cheers for looking...

 

iggy gt4
would you take 2,500 for it mate cheers have the cash waiting thanks

 

 

can you post some pics of the inside and under the bonnet please,
any s/h old mots etc
has the rear chassis ever been welded
is it hpi clear , ever been bumped
what state are the rear arch's in
thanks

 

no sorry it is worth a lot more,even with the bits that need done,and all bits are there.....

 

i will do some pics to day,just going out now..
will take a pic of all the receipts ect...
no welding done or needed,as far as i know....
it is hpi clear i have the report here...
it looks like its had a new wing on but i am not 100% sure...
rear arches are fine no rot so i can see,but i will do some pics later....

 

thats worth about 4k odd id say

 

where abouts in kent are you and would you take Ł3000?
has engine been rebuilt and how many miles has it done?

 

Its a cosworth not a sapphire LX and includes almost all parts to put right.

 

i am neer dartford,yes the enging has been done but i am not sure when,but it drives very very well,and pulls lke a train.......


to be honest i will let it go for 4k,it is worth more but i have no time to finish it and like i said we will be moving,so i would rather it went now to someone who has the time to sort it out,plus the tax is up soon and i am not gonna re tax it unless i realy need to...

so 4k and it can go to a good home.....

 

Gotta laugh at some peoples idea of what to offer


Its worth 4k all day long!!!! hard to get hold of these in this colour so that alone will make it hold its money spec as its little things wrong with it nothing major!! Know the car and the owner so know its a good un

Shame i started my new project instead of buying this when u offered it to me a few months back, wish i had now spec with buying the house etc

Ah well btt for some sensible offers

 

cheers tony,i wish you had bought it as well.....not to worry i am sure it will go soon,might put it in autotrader next week.....


i will get the rest of the pics soon but has been raining all day here......

 

there is no way i would pay even 4k for a rwd saff with those faults despite the colour. sorry

 

See Rule number 4 at top of page fella -

Ivan - Only wish i had a spare 4k mate, Car was very clean when i saw it up Chelsea, Good luck with the sale.

 

ok i take your point but all parts are there to fix the thing,and its not like the car is hard to put right it would take some one a day to do it,

 

What sort of overall condition is the body, original panals??,

Has it had arch work and pics of the marks??

And any pics of the leather and condition, also do you have the wipers for the original front lights??

Cheers

Chris.

 

the body work is ok,there is a couple of marks ut overall its ok...

i have the lights i think the wipers are still on them,no arch work has been done,and the leathes is good appart from normal bolster ware.....cheers for looking........

 

righteooo the diff is now done,what a difference it is so much easyer to drive,seems totally different feel to the car.....

also i have taxed it as well so there is 6 months tax on it,and i have even put a new set of window rubbers on it....

also i need the 4x4 gone so i am open to offers on that....cheers people

 

SORRY IT TOOK SOOOOOOOOOOOOO LONG MY INTERNET IS PLAYING UP.....

 

just a couple of questions regarding the black cossie mate, i like it and firstly i suppose .....do you still have it? i'm on the lookout for a black or flint grey stage 3 2wd saf having sold my moonstone blue stage 1 4x4 recently and wondered what sort of mileage was on your car.....and given you said you would take a diesel as px, would you be interested in an R reg 1998 corsa 1.5 TD plus cash ?

 

yes mate i still have it,the work is now done and its taxed,it is like a new car with the new diff on.....cheers for the offer on the cosa but we need a bigger 4 door car.....cheers.....

 

The engine was freshen'd up just before you got it...new: shells, rings, oil pump, Group a head gasket, head blots, and gasket set

Also i got the arches painted but they were still solid just little bit surface rust....

Looking realy nice now still love the colour of that better than my new one

 

I love the both cars TBH Lawnsy, would love to see a one in this colour up close , looks lovely in these pics, and for the tit that said he wouldnt pay whatever for it well by the sounds of it u wouldnt know a decent Cossie if it slapped you in the moy stop pulling the kids thread down
