Izuzu engine ( the strong one) . Not many owners and is surprisingly good condition but it has failed the mot and we just dont have time to repair it, Its too good to break and starts and runs fine. Needs a little bit of  welding and the rear brakes are inbalanced and a couple of other small bits ( i dont have the failure sheet in front of me so im doing this from memory!)

I was walking home past the Suzuka* GP circuit earlier and spotted this track day car. Sadly I cannot confirm about the LED door handles Reg Bolleaux. I wanted a head on but the driver was eyeballing me whilst he waited to get on track*

So his "track car" basically amounts to an air filter, cheap springs and the rear seats taken out of a 1.8 shopping car. Bet those Caterham and Westfield drivers must be quaking

The Government's MOT history site is making it so fucking difficult for people to bullshit a fucked car out of their life.

 

It's magnificent.

Seller sounds a decent enough chap.

 

 

I'm a mini enthusiast and I originally acquired for its engine. However it didn't need much for an MOT and so since November last year I've been using it as my daily driver and have enjoyed every mile. In November I'm not going to have the heart to dismantle when so few remain and with the attention it gets everywhere I stop. Its worse than a mini for attention and you'll soon find out how many of your neighbours also had one.

Good option instead of a 2wd Freelander with a fucked diff?

 

HA! Think again!

 

 

Runs as a 2 Wheel Drive Only at the moment as i had the free wheeling hub removed from the front drivers side as it was faulty and expensive to buy new from Kia .If the hub can be bought off a breakers then you would have 4 wheel drive back and very straightforward to replace.It drives fine and will not fail MOT on th

I had an ambulance bodied Leyland FG as a teenager with a plan to turn it into a camper. Cracked block, terminal chassis rust and fucked brakes put paid to that idea.

VAUXHALL  DIS-ASTRA!


Here is our Vauxhall Astra home made pick up we used it for collecting logs and general field work last year since then we have bought a tractor and no longer need this. 

This is a wonderful contraption but since being parked up the fuel pump has packed up and it will no longer start, engine is good (1.4 petrol) gear box good, got a good set of alloys and nice tires, windscreen is also good, so good for parts or banger racing etc... We also still have the tailgate which has rear windscreen. 

Please note buyer MUST remove whole vehicle by trailer or truck, and I don't want people coming and pulling bits off it in my drive, thanks.

 

First person with £25 can have the lot

this keeps winking at me. it is a insurance write off though.

 

a second hand wing is £120-odd and a headlamp unit is £35-ish. the grill though is a cool £100-£150-odd

 

i would though hope that the bumper and bonnet are undamaged. or that they would repair?

Bid retractions:

 

Before bidding on an item on eBay, be sure to read the item description and check the seller's Feedback. If you have any questions about the listing, contact the seller by going to the View Item page and clicking on either the seller's user ID or on the Ask Seller a Question link.

Please remember that every bid on eBay is binding (unless the item is listed in a category under the Non-Binding Bid Policy or the transaction is prohibited by law or by eBay's User Agreement). Bidding on multiple identical items should be done only if you intend to buy all of the items.

It is ONLY OK to retract a bid if...,

  • You accidentally enter a wrong bid amount (for example, you bid £99.50 instead of £9.95). If this occurs, re-enter the correct bid amount immediately.
  • The description of an item you have bid on has changed significantly.
  • You cannot reach the seller. This means that you have tried calling the seller and the seller's phone number doesn't work, or you have tried emailing the seller and it comes back undeliverable.
  • There isn't 12 months MOT and the car is going to cost you hundreds

My old fella always liked these, the best one he had was an ex plod 827 Manual. It went very well for a big old bus.
