Default regretable but forced sale

guys mite Have to sell my 850 t5, shame as i love it and always wanted one............

anyhow financial problems may force its sale , will know 100% by sunday........

its at 257k and still going strong, i bought it to save it from being stood where it was doing nouthing. its a MOT failiure with the sheet stating fail on caliper spring clip missing , low rear pads, low front discs

only probs are some wolly wired the rad fan up onto a switch as the relay wasent working, have spare withit havent had time to try it.....

the idiot owner before took the thermostat out, causing it to not know what to do somtime, basicly its fine driving around but if you do stop start dring it will refuse to re start somtimes unless you leave it 5 min then it fires back up fine..

the drivers door lock doesent work as its had attempted theft at some point in its life.... body could do with buffing up as loosing its coour a little ment to be dark green looks more like blue in pics.......

engine is sweet as a nut just done oil change to flush all the muck round (as its been stood) have fresh oil filter waiting ready to change the oil again but as i havent had time or the money havent done the second change yet, but the oil in it is new........

drives lovely, excellent smooth clutch MANUAL , turbo boosts up really well aswell.

full leathers in good condition only light wear. TRACS , AIRCON . electric everything the only thing this car doesent have is cruise control.

2 tryes need resealin as the guy i got it off let them go flat so they dont hold a seal and go down every two days.......

must go, one 1 year old and anouther baby on the way , and the fact we mite need to move force the sale really but as i said al know 100% for sunday if its got to go....

can come with a spare engine aswell as i was going to rebuild a engine with forged rods etc, but as again plans have changed somewhat.

Offers on car and spare engine will be much appreciated

located in nottingham, if youd like to view then just PM me and we can arrange a viewing no problem.

£OFFERS
