xr4is are getting rare theres less about than 3dr cossies but as for this one i now he's been having problems with it and not had it long so probably the reason he's flogging it and for the janspeed conversion i've only seen one more and that was for sale on ebay last year

the only problems i had with the car was a missfire, this was sorted with new dizzy, also had new spark lugs and ht leads to be on the safe side so thats not the reason for "flogging it"

I have had the car about 5-6 months and that is a really long time for me as i usually only have a car for a month or 2 at most but this one i really liked so kept it a while longer

she has now been relisted as winning ebayer never made contact

as for how rare they are i also only know of one other thats still on the road so yes very rare

feel free to make your offers.....

Done a lot of work on one of these! A black A reg one.

AFAIK It's still on the road, paintwork was original but rough, chassis was mint underneath.

It's rare because no one was interested in buying them when they were new, that price tag is from lala land it's Ł1500 to Ł3,000 tops.

sometihng is worth what someone is willing to pay.

if someone wants your car enough to give you 6k for it then great

if you dont need the money and aren't worried about selling quickly then just leave it up at 6k for a few years and perhaps someone will come along that wants that particular car
