lisbon_road Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Marvelous. Is that engine the same as a Vauxhall/Opel big block engine out of Astra and endless other cars? Sorry, don't want to buy although it is impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nigel bickle Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I went and looked at this, a while back, when he was asking considerably more. He did sufficient welding for an Mot, just - but it was plating over the original mess, with a ton of wet under seal. The bottom of the doors, boot lid and both rear wheel archs are all borked, completely. A lot of refabbing needed. It's not often I walk away, esp when it would have made a good match to my Padmini..

purplebargeken Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Fancy a Golf with a years test and a Volvo 340 for a swap? Hell, even a Mondeo Aspen. Serious offer!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anonymous user Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I like that, but can imagine fun times when parts are needed, I am sure there was a dealer for these in Carmarthenshire a few years ago Just realised that those few years ago was around 1990 somewhatfoolish and Bamboocarman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavcraft Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Possibly the best car ever advertised on here. Sack the engine off, fit an XUD or TD Isuzu and chip fat your way into happiness. beko1987 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel bickle Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 It's at " that" point in life. It's worthless as a breaker, refurbish it will cost a lot of years, or a lot of money. You could, in theory, use it a while, but it's an attention grabber, the wrong sort closer than 10 yards. I hope someone commits, I've not enough time left, unless it's cheap enough for me to pay the labour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
