Default C70 T5 GT Auto for sale in Cornwall

Just in case anyone is looking for a very well sorted C70 T5 GT with a Prinz LPG conversion. There is one advertised here.

ferkin hell..... £1950!! for a 97 C70 with 175K!

I dont care if it does have an LPG conversion, i'd want it to come with free LPG for life for that price.

I paid £1395 for mine with 82k on the clock on an X plate and ive seen them cheaper still.

An interesting viewpoint! I think the great condition and 38MPG equivalent must have worked as it sold in 48 hours. To be fair if you read the advert it had £1500 of recent work including cam belt, drive belt, 4 discs, all pads, handbrake shoes, wishbones, strut top mounts etc, had just been serviced and new coolant and brake fluid. The Prinz conversion is a good one and cost £1600 so technically the car cost -£150. With high mileage cars it is all about condition!

Ha! That'll be my one then! I bought it a year later for a fair bit less than that price.

Now on 204k and hasn't missed a beat, drives tight as anything too and can get 25mpg on gas too.

Could be for sale again soon though
