the milage is so low, If you think mine is hight at 170000 at 23 years
at 10000 it would be at 230000 170000 is low for it. so 20 years at 10
shoud be 200000 miles so at 84000 miles me thinks this is bargin at
£117 at the mo.

thinking about it mark, your the closest, go and park yours next to it and take some photoes or bid and get it. its a shame to loose this one with it being low milage as well.

I was going for this car, but when you weigh up the work it needs and the end value, is it worth it. It also needs two front tyres and they look like OE to me, Metric? I think about £100 would have been ok for this, but no more. Besides, I've still got a hankering for an e28 Auto. Being a rare manual doesn't make it more desirable IMO, but it would be interesting on a wet road! A ****** to sell on, I would imagine. I didn't mind being outbid, there's an e28 with my name on it out there somewhere.

Welcome to the board Simon, and welcome to the small band of nutters who like E23's.
I used to have a V12 XJS too, A V regd pre-HE. Fantastic engine & GM 400 box, shame about the rest of the car!
Have you crawled all over & under the 735i yet.
What are the floors/sills/jacking points like?
Is the car worth repairing?
Please start a post when you have decided what to do, and what parts you need.

Simon
I'm not far from you, and a manual e23 is an interesting car IMO. Try to repair, but don't break it!
Once you get it, mail me the details!
Cheers
AG
