Breaking 2003 S40 2.0T Sport Lux Manual - Black

Due to suspected headgasket failure (along with a rattling camshaft for a year and a half), 230k on the clock, tinworm above the windscreen thanks to a naff window fitter, some rust on the sills and twice being a Cat 'C' car I have decided to retire my car.

Being a Sport Lux it's got the desirable bits on as well as upgraded parts so I am giving you good forum folks first chance to buy. As it's been on the hit list twice and the locations of the rust I'm not really wanting to sell the car as a whole as it's only really got a year left, and with the Headgasket looking like being gone it's not viable.

Desirable parts:
Eggcrate Grille
Lancer III Front Brakes
17" Arcadia's (albeit scuffed a fair bit) with near new Pzero Nero front and rear tyres
Genuine Xenon Headlights (Black with Chrome Rings)
Black indicators
Front Fogs with the inside painted black to match headlights
Piano Black Trims (not steering wheel)
Heated Black leather (Inc Electric Drivers Seat) but worn
Side Support Rear Headrests
Premium Sound System (Amp and uprated Speakers)
HU-1205 with discs, and the Amplifier Out Version
Phase 1 T4 Engine Bay Trim
Genuine Front Strut Brace
Cup Holder Centre Console (wear to handbrake gater)
Full House Climate Panel
Chrome Door Handles and Boot
Clock's With Chrome Rings
Genuine Rubber Mats (drivers well worn though)
Smoked Marker lights in body colour

Panels are ok-ish, drivers door is a bit scratched, the rest are pretty good. Bonnet is a little chipped where it meets the bumper and needs a proper polish to bring up the shine. Passenger front wing good, no visible rust. Drivers wing has a bit. Boot is sadly damaged and the spoiler is scuffed, but could be made good. Mirrors are quite chipped. Front bumper (non washer) has scuff on near side (passenger) bellow the marker, not too deep. Front spoiler present with centre section, albeit not all the mounting points are there.

Any questions please get in touch. If your after the Arcadia's though I will need some sort of wheels to keep it mobile so I don't get too much ear ache!

Car is located in Brackley, Northamptonshire. Willing to post and meet people etc...

Pictures to follow.

Don't know if my previous reple took effect. I am after the eggcrate grill and would appreciate a pm with a price including postage. Any pics would be appreciated

Fuel sender arrived today very well packaged thanks very much

Hi Technician

Do you still have some parts? Afraid that I'm not after any 'juicy' or special bits, just some plain old bits!

Looking for the headlamp wiper arms, particularly the nearside,
the cup holder (do you have a photo?)
and I could do with a the left hand stalk that does main/dip beam but also has the cruise controls on it.

I appreciate that you may not want to separate the stalk in case you have somebody who wants to buy the cruise control as a whole but my stalk is a little iffy sometimes.

Thanks

Hi Technician

Cheers
Chris
