nope; but the front bumper isnt the right colour

749steve

iTrader: (1)

i noticed that but what old car hasnt had paint
i think that will just be to get rid of stone chips

any advice as what to look for?

LHD220Turbo

iTrader: (4)

oh yeah, i agree, lots of them have

dont worry about the cosmetics so much; check for rotten chassis legs, poor previous repairs, inner wings, sills

if you do a search this sort of thing about what to look for has been covered a fair bit

good luck

749steve

iTrader: (1)

i saw this on ebay too. One minute it was a rolling shell the next it was a full car. Something going on!

turboRS

this belonged to my mate untill a couple of months ago. its a CAT C vehicle and definately not worth any where near what its up for!
347 horses mind..

749steve

iTrader: (1)

its listed as both,they guy said if it didnt sell complete he was going to use the engine in his mk1 escort

CRAIG HAYTER

is it moonstone you want or and 4x4?my mate has a nice flint grey one for sale about the 300bhp mark stage 3 on diamond cuts

Ebonycossie4x4

iTrader: (4)

it wont sell complete at that money being Cat C.

And he wont get what he wants for the shell for the same reason, He should use it to do his mk1 really.

i just want a tidy saph, dont want big spec just history of a rebuild
and ideally i prefer cloth but not too picky
and cheap

Ebonycossie4x4

iTrader: (4)

so you want a rebuild and cheap lol... The two dont normally go together.

24vcossiemat

it also says in this auction that it has a folder full of history, i thought that you dont get the history with a cat c???? anyone else heard this

749steve

iTrader: (1)

no bothered about a recent rebuild but that its had one at some point.
i missed out on this one as i hadnt sold my golf in time

if the owner who smashed it, buys it back off the insurance he would still have the history when he sold it

I was going to say as this is only 10 miles max away from me and I dont mind for a PF member in going and having a nosey and taking more pics,BUT imo its to much money being listed to start with and I too saw the original ad of removing the flint.Didnt he buy two or something ?.I am no expert but have been around cars all my life (old man trader,60plus cars of my own and I rebuilt a sapphire years ago) I have a good idea where to look chassis legs,seat mounts,wheel well,strut tops,arches,doors,rear panel,spoiler mount middle,inner sills.He may tell me to fook off taking pics of the underside but then thats his loss and just for you I will leave in a puff of tyre smoke from my 2wd (maybe more coming from the exhaust) but I dont care Disclaimer,stoke is closer to Stone than scunny but viewing yourself is better

749steve

iTrader: (1)

thanks for the offer but im not bothering with that one now
ill just keep looking one will turn up somewhere

turboRS

If the previous owner bought the car back yes or if the new buyer chased the old one then wht not.

My mate wrote his car off and still got history if someone chased him for it i am sure he would give it up for a drink.
