Think John Laverick has just got one of these, he loves it!

there are some out there mate

got mine for £1200 with 12 months MOT and 3 months tax..
rebuilt engine, stainless exhaust. Bodywork is pretty good on mine too!

since then ive had 306 GTI-6 brakes (need slightly longer braided lines
to fit them as the standard ones go tight on full lock)

Adjustable suspension and some proper bushes,
makes them pretty hard on the road, but they really are great fun!

and to be honest IF you manage to find a 1900 with an engine that
aint tired as hell... TBH you will probably wonder if you need to change it !
i know i'm wondering if its worth bothering!

Mate- the only reason to buy an Mi16 after today if for slightly more grunt on the straights... other than that for almost triple what Tim paid.. it aint worth it.

IMHO

Some of you might have seen my ad on PistonHeads a couple of weeks ago...

White 1.9, unfinished project. No space or time to finish (too many cars!). It's all complete and will be running (once I get my garage space back - full of Xmas prezzies at the moment rolleyes.gif ). Decent all round condition but would be ideally suited as a track car project. It's completely standard but running a 1992 K plate 1.9 8 valve engine.

Looking for around £300









not amazing. but then it is only £300
