Hi everyone picked this up late yesterday, it's amazing what you find locally, if anyone is interested give me a shout.

Have a read...it really is as good as it looks, I haven't even cleaned it, as you can probably tell off the wheels.

Check out this item I found on eBay: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item...638611&alt=web

Thanks

I'm really beginning to hate Ebay! Been let down 3 times now by sellers, either obviously changing their mind and making up some failure when it sells for too little, or agreeing to sell it to you ,then when you double check collection arrangements it's sold to someone else, or even when you agree to pay the asking price and it sells to someone else and they don't have the courtesy to even reply to you!!
< and breathe > Sorry rant over ..
Do you have to sell it through Ebay or would you sell it for a price on here?
I may be interested as I'm after a car I can tinker/fix up/learn about , but still drive and enjoy. Just don't want to bite off more than I can chew with this one!

Cheers,
Steve

Hi Steve,

I know exactly what you mean with eBay, in answer to your question yes I will sell outside eBay infact I'd be surprised if it doesn't, like yourself I haven't got time to be dicked about, that said there are genuine people out there and I'm hoping given what marque the car is it would generally be the purists out there that understand what's for sale here.

People might be thinking y eBay then, it's simple it needs to go, plus it is the best way of getting it in the public eye.

By all means give me a ring or pm to discuss.

Rich

Hi Rich,
Thanks for your reply. Meant to say earlier it's a lovely looking car for its age.
I'll PM you later on this evening

Any chance you could answer my question/post in General about the Alarm/Immobiliser on these? Is it a factory fitted Alarm/Immobiliser , Thatcham approved or not or any on these? Was just getting an insurance quote on yours

Hi Steve,

It's factory fitted alarm/immobilser working off remote fob, I'm not sure myself if it's thatcham approved, I'm insured through swift and tbh I transferred from a 9-5 aero on to this and my premium went down slightly, under £200 with protected ncd, I have a few years ncd so the helps and there isn't any add-ons.

Thanks Rich
