No, it's not the famous AS bike 220, it's my daily of two and a half years 216.

I'd already done a deal to deliver it to JohnK as it was now surplus to requirements and I didn't have the time it needs to smarten it up. John (my rescue hero) has first refusal if he still wants it.

It is a superb collection of R8 parts, freshly cleaned and installed velourious seats from a later model. Disks all 'round with handbrake that works!

 

The whole thing feels bent, the boot now won't shut easily, and it shakes like a bastard at 35mph, the wobble becomes uncontrollable at 45. The steering wheel's 30 degrees to the wonk. The front end skuttles to the side over rough surfaces. Some front end ironmongery will be bent. All suspension components available from the ex-Chompy Rover. Needs exhaust (supplied).

 

New cam belt and water pump last year. Reciepts somewhere. And CV joints done too. Fresh oil last month, but skipped the filter as I'd used my last in stock and forgot to re-order.
Old thread from 2013:
 

Includes a set of x-spoke 14" GTi alloys (look brill, as seen in Wales).

Includes more spares than you can shake a stick at, full set of black'n'chrome body plastics to complete the monochrome look. Also ex-Vulg facelift bonnet and grille, and possibility of a pair of wings (Can you donate the one you reject, Angyl?)

 

Also includes get you home tax, and a current MOT, best measured in days.

Realistically it's a drive-home spares car, with everything to re-build / smarten the roughest R8. Then weigh in the shell for £££.

Comes with new full sills and arch repair panels. I don't really have time to break this myself, hence the chance of it going whole. 

 

Come and get it from BD23.

 

£99 with half a tank of fuel.

You will never pay it off as it will throw you into a verge at the bottom of the dale due to being bent and you will be dead

 

Edited that for you.

I do have the wing that I was forced* to take away and it would be available if someone was wanting to resurrect this car.  It does have a dent and it's red, but is in better condition than the one fitted.  I'm now completely tapped out cash-wise otherwise I'd be striking up a deal with you on this one.  I also have zero time to do anything with it either fixing or breaking because I've been stupid and taken too much on again.

In that case, I announce "The New And Improved Trusted Shiter Loan Scheme".

 

This car, and all else you want is now FREE*

 

Come and get it, strip it at your convenience, weigh in the rest, and pay me from the bridge cheque. 

 

Now tell me you can't afford it. There's even pez in it to get you home!

I was just thinking 'I'm sure I've been to that pub!' but it was when I visited you briefly at Shitefest wasn't it......DOH!

 

Looks like the pub in Linton, but don't remember going there at Shitefest (or was I drunk / hungover ....)

 

The "shitefest lunch pub" was the Falcon at Arncliffe, a few miles up the road
