For Sale 1984 Renault 18 GTD *trophy winning autoshite bike* £150 Fife, Scotland

[derskine]

Good evening and welcome to the sale of this exotic, French chunk of automobilia.
2.1 NA Diesel.
 
This car won "Rarest car" at the car event "How Many Left". Allegedly it's the only 18 GTD Saloon left in the UK.
 
I was going to keep this but I realistically have no use for it.
 
Bad points

• No MOT
• Cam belt snapped so needs new rocker arms (valves/pistons will be fine).
• Requires a bit of welding on the drivers sill and rear arch - I have a rear arch panel which is included.
• It has central locking but only opens/locks on the passengers door.
• It's generally a bit tatty.
• Painted nato green with a roller.
• 2nd gear synchro has been hairy for the past 20000 miles.
• It needs a battery.

Good points

• Had a shitload of welding about a year ago, good used bonnet, drivers door and passengers wing also fitted.
• Have quite a lot of spares from an 18 GTL I broke which are included, these include doors, glass, a wing, and various trim/instrumentation, headlights, quite a lot of stuff.
• Two new front wheel bearings recently.
• It did about 60mpg when running.
• New exhaust recently.
• New front ball joints and track rod ends.
• Absolute babe magnet.

Really, fitting the arch and sill are the biggest part, changing the rocker arms and cam belt shouldn't be an issue as the engine is mounted longitudinally.
 
I'm asking 150 notes which is a hell of a lot less than I've sunk into it.

I have got a rocker shaft here somewhere with most of the rockers still intact. Anyone who takes this on is welcome to it, if I remeber rightly the rockers were about 50 quid each but that was about 10 years ago now.

Burgundy.

I think this is sold to FOAD in a deal involving a 309 and me carrying out some work...
