Wanted-122s

TRE · Jan 16th, 2011, 20:51

Hi- I'm looking for a 122S. My ideal spec would be 2door, man/od, long MOT,
good solid turnkey car, any colour but white. I have no objection to some work, after all, that's part of the attraction of owning older cars, is it not? By the way the above are not written in stone.
I live in the New Forest on the Hants/Dorset border, & would prefer to view
within a reasonable distance of home ( define reasonable- hmm )
If anyone should know of such a beast, please PM me with a phone no
& I'll contact you asap. Many thanks in anticipation.
Regards Richard

There's a blue one on ebay at the moment in Bournemouth

I think the vendors expectations may be a bit high, judging by the high start
bid plus a reserve on top. Also the original listing inc an o/d box, propshaft & electrics, which have been withdrawn. Perhaps he'll relist.

I take it that you are looking for either a 121, 131 or even a 123GT then 2 door. I'm pretty sure all 122's are 4 door. Never seen a UK 122's 2 door as yet.

Let us know how you get on with your search.

Hi-you're absolutely right-I should have said " looking for an Amazon ", that would have concealed my ignorance. Just to make my day better I miscalculated on the Ebay car in B'mouth, sold for 3K!

I'm pleased it's gone to someone who appears he will appreciate & enjoy driving it

Are you still looking for a 2 door? I might be selling mine (green with a tan interior), 2 door...
