    Smile ZT260 Breaking on E-bay

    Nothing to do with me, but...Whilst cruising around e-bay i found a company in Dorset breaking a Black MK2 260 saloon SE (not SE+ so no HK or powerfold mirrors)

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...fvi%3D1&_rdc=1

    They are very helpful and actually have the car there, unlike the joker in Manchester a week or so ago! Its worth giving them a call, the add says to speak to Ian but i spoke to Robert who was also incredibly helpful.

    They will list everything up on e-bay so its safe too.

    Unfortunately its shame another 260 has left us....RIP

    Whoops... just had a call back from them (ian), they seem a little bit inflexible and expensive.

    I just wanted the gear lever surround and they said they wouldn't sell it, i'd have to buy all the dash pieces... so i asked how much... "well i sold a set last week for £100 +vat +courier costs, so its got to be at least that". £140-£150 They obviously didn't sell it on e-bay then, because they're going for about £35 for everything, drivers piece, airbag cover, vent surround, eyebrow, full centre console and gear surround! (ok i know its for a std ZT, but its really only the gear lever surround that's different)

    Someone on the 75 and ZT's said they don't discount and they're carriage costs are steep too.

    So just be aware of the full costs when you speak to them.

    Thats the not so good side of people coming across stuff on e-bay. Increases demand and makes the breakers think they can get the prices. I had already spoken to them about alternators, starter motors and screen wash bottles. They wanted £80 each for the items so said no thanks other than for the screen wash bottle which costs around £150 so got that.

    I already have a spare but have bought this one as a club bottle for members to use in case of emergencies to get your car back on the road if you suffer from a mild front ender. We will expect the bottle to be replaced but means you will not have to wait while x-part etc look for a replacement stopping the car from being repaired. We are only going to do this for small unque items like the bottle.

    Did you ask what they wanted for the rear discs BTW ?
    They obviously know how rare some of the parts are!

    As for the that car's demise, well it was only another black one
