Great cars these, would definately have another. yep pitty i cant afford to insure it tho im 21 mext may so if im keeping it itll be a little project, drives nice apart from as soon as you give it power the clutch slips like a bitch. and the syncro in 2nd and 3rdwas a guy i know who had it, Hes up in court on monday for drink driving so hes loosing his ticket. thats why it was so cheap Edited February 12, 2010 by scottg17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saunders Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Good find mate, hope you tidy this up well. Assuming you have not driven it yet then due to insurance? And the clutch slip is what you been told? Anyway, good luck with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottg17 Posted February 12, 2010 Author Share Posted February 12, 2010 okay.. MOT info says its had a couple bits of welding, once on the NS rear leg. and the other on the NS floor front. Ill have a good look under tomorrow and ill probably fix any/if any rust problems Everything is repairable and TBH id like to see it stay on the road... One thing im really inpressed with is the amont of reciepts kept for it!!! the most ive ever seen.. Its two A4 folders, one with all the MOTs from new and the other with rubbish loads of reciepts front to back it had a private plate but its gone now This is only a small amount http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x179/scottg17/12022010063.jpghttp://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x179/scottg17/12022010062.jpghttp://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x179/scottg17/12022010061.jpghttp://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x179/scottg17/12022010060.jpghttp://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x179/scottg17/12022010059.jpghttp://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x179/scottg17/12022010058.jpghttp://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x179/scottg17/12022010057.jpghttp://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x179/scottg17/12022010056.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

massivewangers Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Looks alright to me. Bumpers and bonnets and things are easily replaced, so nothing to worry about there. Has it got any of the options on it? Air con? Heated screen? Pass air bag? I reckon you should get it all fixed up then use it. You've got time to go over it and make it as good as possible. Too many are getting broken sadly. Very underrated cars IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
