Hello folks

This car is getting in my way now.

Image

The original ad is here:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... :IT&ih=015

Buyer and myself agreed to not proceed with the sale, mutually.

It's got no MoT and no tax. It needs the following, after a thorough look over by me yesterday:

Windscreen chip repair needed
Offside front caliper is sticky
Some paintwork here and there - the only rust is bubbling on drivers front arch.
The drivers seat is a bit baggy and there is a tiny hole in one bolster on that seat, too.
There is no radio
The rear wheels need swapping over with each other as they have directional tyres and have been fitted on wrong sides (not by me!)
It needs a boot carpet as the one in the car has been cut to accommodate a CD changer which is no longer fitted.
Central locking doesn't always work on the rear doors.

And that's about it.

Anyone interested? Whoever offers the most can have it before I Ebay it again, reluctantly. Oh, and it drives superbly well, nice and tight and rattle free. Just a SLIGHT pull under braking due to the caliper problem.

Thanks

Brad

A stunning car but speaking personally I don't have the space or time for another project at the moment, which is a real shame as i love the colour.

I guess if I had the cash and my Mk1 Sterling was at the hanger I'd probably have had it off you, as I guess I seem to be pining after a Mk1 Fastback again :|

Is that cream leather interior?

Sorry Brad, just mild curiosity, I'm afraid.

I can match that (apart from the 220) - and raise you half a mince pie (2007 vintage).

Too generous. And you really should buy a new sofa rather than another car.

I thought you had enough cars, Rich...

As it's you, I'll be happy with that and I'll chuck in some spares and a new air filter. One condition...can you take it before Christmas? Thanks

Brad

P.S. Is there anything you need for the 827Si? If so, you can have whatever I can help you with for free too. Just need some SPACE!!

Well I was reluctant to start with as it was looking like i was going to get a company car, but that looks like that's gone out the window with Unum really pulling back on the contract we have with them, so much so I hope I keep my job there, the alternative is back on the road again which is ok in the summer but pants this time of year.

is I will take this conversation to PM Brad if thats ok. 8)
