    posted this also, it seems like even one the 18000 miles has been hard. It certainly has been in the wars in its life....not sure about the wheels or tyres.

    I cant access that link....

    Can someone post up any decent information?

    Whats the previous accident damage?

    I don't mind taking this on, as long as I know exactly whats what..

    The engine has been breathed on? Its not standard?

    Needs a fair bit
    Rear seat belts (x3)
    Front pretensioners
    Both air bags
    T4 session to re write the crash data in the Air Bag ECU
    Windscreen
    Bumper (expensive)
    Bonnet
    Slampanel
    Headlight (expensive and hard to get)
    Wing
    Allow for
    Rad and fan assembly
    Condensor
    wing

    Paintwork

    Unlikely to be engine damage as there is a big gap in the front of the engine bay

    If you search on Stal108's posts, it's a standard engine as he took the S/C off

    OPS I DID IT AGAIN

    Well on the way home this morning a little rain rwd v8 engine a laps in talent and a lampost all came together. As result i have to sell as is.

    Damage

    Still drives starts fine .I am unable to lift bonnet but the wings are ok the rad has lost water but not sure if it rad or a pipe . So take it as the rad and it is a bonus if it is something else .I think front panel bonnet n/s headlight ,bumper( I have one of the late big grill bumpers can go with it) I was going sideways around a roundabout for a little fun and it went pair shaped and i hit a lampost head on passanger airbag went off and has cracked the screen.Easy repair. fun rwd car or a track car? rare loos good nice car.



    Car history

    Was bought new by a soliciter who had it vadalised and as a result was recorded cat c 28 feb 2006 it was new 14/3/05 so less than a year old. I have the report.Then sold salvage and repaired by a chap in coventry for what ever reason only used it for 1 year. I bought it with no mot or tax with12000 mile . The repair( panel damage only no impact damage all glass lights etc)Now 18 k. Not in perfect condition but it is 6 years old.

    I taxed and moted it for a year so tax is due end of sept mot early oct. So short but wont pass as is lol.

    Offers welcome reserve is £2500 so if you offer less there will be no reply.
