trigger Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Not on ebay but just been posted on gumtree with a link http://ipswich.gumtree.com/ipswich/37/43974237.html http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/strene2/Peug ... mageAnchor Sound cheap to me @ £155 Needs a new torsion bar as it's broke, don't know hard they are to fix but it's still taxed and MOTed until next March, It's the 1.9TD GLX model but does have nearly 200k but that's nothing for one of these.

brammy777 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 torsion bars are one of those things thats easier and cheaper to fix by yourself at home, but only if you have a spring compressor.Im sure theres plenty of these at scrappies to salvage a decent one off of. Im probably really wrong, but hey ho, thats why im at college and here, to learn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milford Cubicle Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I think the whole rear suspension unit is relatively easy to replace, it's just finding a decent one that's a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brammy777 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 i just remembered you dont need a spring compressor, they are an intergral unit, you dont need to remove the springs.405 estates have clearly lasted in greater numbers than the other varients though.Doesnt anything by citroen share the same torsion bar?

Milford Cubicle Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 It'd be rather hard to compress a torsion bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brammy777 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Sorry got confused with twist beam rear suspension there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredTransit Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 This sounds cheap for £1500 with T+T, qute fancing a camper at the moment, Got a moden 2.5Di fitted as well.Jesus that's a bitser! Mk2 doors, Mk5 mirrors and Mk2 rear lights and wheels!!! Mk2 doors, why do people do that? Hmmm, 1976, not a good year for rot! Still it's a fair price for something you will have to tax, and it's got a DI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milford Cubicle Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I think a twist beam rear axle is based on the same principleAnyway, back to the tat! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1984-AUDI-80-SC-t ... 0391438198 Someone on RR picked up a similar but un-messed 80 for £210, I can't see this being worth 10 times as much.

MrRegieRitmo Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Have we had this straight looking Renault 20 yet? Must be a while since one of these appeared on eBay? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/barn-find-renault ... 286.c0.m14 ^ Yes please!, Nice colour as well That looks like my next car! Well it would be if it wasn't a bag of sand! What happened to these cars being 3 or 400 quid!? Those Renault 18s recently went for a sensible price, this is being very optimistic surely? I know R20s were more expensive than the smaller Renaults when new but surely that doesn't apply in later years, in fact often bigger cars are cheaper because they become less desirable!Back on. Will be interested to see what the market naturally dictates it to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spottedlaurel Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 By George, I think I've cracked linking to the new eBay pictures! To celebrate, let's look at this Sunny estate: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1987-NISSAN-SUNNY ... 0468345231 Shame not to be buying it from the long-time owner, but it does sound like a very good example. Had I not got the Bluebird I'd be going for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milford Cubicle Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Those Sunny estates are odd, didn't you get a choice of 2 different styles when that one was new? The 'sporty' fastback and a van-based alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spottedlaurel Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 By George, I think I've cracked linking to the new eBay pictures!How? I still can't do it. Enlarge image > Right click on image > View page info > Click on media > Copy and paste the http business where it says Location. That’s on Firefox, but last week I couldn’t do it. MC, thinking about it there were actually three versions of what were badged Sunny running at that time. The hatchback/saloon N13 models (actually a Pulsar), the B12 fastback estate/coupe, and the B11 DX estate/van (with the very upright back end and round headlights).
