CYANIDE STEVE Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 I've been thinking alot about selling this car lately. I would like to keep it and sort out it problems, get it through an MOT but I'm not sure I'm able to now due to ongoing health problems. I'm having a constent battle between heart and brain. It has no MOT. It needs a small amount of welding and a set of tyres and some wires above the tailgate soldered to get the rear lights and wiper working. It runs and drives and stops. It goes up and down and appears to have had all new spheres fairly recently but would need trailering away. The car owes me £500 so IF I sell it, I would like that back if possible but I'm open to offers. I've added photos from when I bought it but since these were taken, I have cleaned it inside and out.As I type this I'm still not sure whether to sell or not strangeangel and KruJoe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacquer Peel Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Have you got an engine bay pic? Curious to see what fuel pump is fitted. KruJoe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KruJoe Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 If that's all it needs Steve, I'd say that's very cheap. CYANIDE STEVE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplebargeken Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Keep it, you will regret it and will 500 quid buy a better one at any point in the future for you? CYANIDE STEVE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philibusmo Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 If you were 11,427 miles closer I'd be all over that. Looks a cracking old bus that should be put back on the road. Incidentally, has anyone ever attempted to build a camper van out of one of these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incidentally, has anyone ever attempted to build a camper van out of one of these?No but I reckon there would be lots of space once the interior was stripped! I've slept in one though, and it was fine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayW Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 That (CX) was only unsuccessful due to the knobcheese driving it. I'd have bought one! Tamworthbay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulgalour Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Ah... that's a shame. Transporting it the 300 miles back rather breaks the bank on this one and that's *if* it actually fits Mike so for that reason, he's out. Sorry about that.

I most certainly can't put up with any more muppets and 'Jeremy Kyle guests' on ebay, so it's just easier to keep it, mot it and hopefully enjoy it Minimad5 and forddeliveryboy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
