| This car is far too good to scrap. It has Tax but no test and a load of spares, new HRW & front screen. Only slight rust but I have the last door needed ready to fit. Is there any interest in this old girl? |

The full leather is very good, the fronts all electric and sand or Beige and all options work. The body colour is burgundy but the 6 year old respray was a total failure. She is also booked in for MOT at 1300 hours on Thursday 5th February. I see no reason why she will not pass.

Needs a track rod end, in the post, and 1 lower track control arm of which I have a number of new ones. All I need now is a little bit of warm weather as I have no garage. As for price, I really have no idea. I also have no idea of how to upload pics.

Tell us about the condition of the paint and panels please Tel. Can you post up some pics or send pics to my email, if I send you my email details? I think you said its Burgundy Red, a lovely shade ------------- Philip The saviour of smelly E23s Essex and Sussex |

| The paint is totally crap especially the bonnet and roof. Panels are all straight and only a little surface rust on the bumpers. I fitted a new track control arm and complete new track rods, plus two unused t-r-ends and an unused track control arm for the drivers side in the spares. and the very rare alloy exhaust manifold trims. The car has an alloy Strut brace and stainless air intake, bonnet air scoops, and various supplementary instruments. The elec seats do all they are supposed to do and have only one small area of home stitching done by myself. If you send your email address I can forward a few pics of when she looked far better. |
