Default 440 GS 1996 Breaking. All parts available

I've been a 'lurker' on this forum for almost a year now and the tips on how to keep my Mother's car on the road have been really useful

Sadly the battle is now lost with an MOT fail to make your eyes water...

So if anyone wants any bits before Friday (when the grim reaper is coming with his hiab), give me a shout. I'm not going to ask for silly money for anything. Better someone else gets theuse of it and I'm happy with some beer money

Parts I can think of...

All lights & lenses
Decent battery
sunvisors
headlining
parcel shelf (uncut)
half leather seats
rear hatch (new telescopics)
bonnet
grille
doors?
Engine is good (if you can take it out)
trim pieces
toolkit
Front bumper
Panels
Towbar

There's probably more so give me a shout if you want anything.

The car is just off M5 J21 but I do go to Heathrow for work on the M4 quite a bit and am heading up to Crewe twice in April so happy to drop stuff off and save people money on postage.

Pics below of the car...











PM Me or call O7929 O55426

Hiya... what sort of price would you want for the fuel sender unit? Mine has just died a death, and after shelling out a fortune last week on oil change, plugs, filters, etc, it couldn't of happened at a worse time. I have to keep this old but tough car going to get the kids to school. I am up in Stoke so could get to Crewe, am also down near Heathrow at weekends to visit a friend, so could meet to collect or even come down to you and go to Hampshire the long way round. Hope to hear from you soon, and hopefully can then stop guessing how much petrol I have in tank

No idea what it's worth.... £5???

Also no idea where it is but noticed an access panel under the rear seat. Will need your instructions on how to get it out.

That sounds great. If it's easier to arrange something on phone, my mobile is ************. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

Hi Pintsize
Just in case it is useful !!If you are going to buy the sender unit - it might be worth your while buying the complete instrument panel as well,if you look at the thread started by debs ...I put a link in to a little write up about changing the gauges/pcb etc

regards baz
