eBay tat volume 3.

Sounds great…

Here’s my pergeot 406, kinda bought this car not thinking I have alot of adult problems to deal with and don’t have the time or money to be dumping into it right now, it’s one of the cleanest shells I’ve actually seen first owner garage stored it I’m sure. The car has been in a crash at some point in its life so that’s down on the v5. 88000 miles which is nothing for these cars as they used to be taxis. The body work is very rough, not rusty just covered in dents and lacour peel. Car has a horrible shake hence why I stopped using it, I’ve read up on it it’s either a drive shaft, egr or an engine mount. 205 gti wheels worth a decent bit if you can find a set. It’s ran out of mot whilst sitting there. Strait through with a reek map over 4k. Keeps going into limp mode because it’s shaking so bad it’s knocking the throttle cable out of place. Any more questions just ask open to offers cheers

would also swap for the right dirt/pit bike or a cheap run around with mot 👍🏻

That's a shame - lovely colour combination but I can't see much that's saveable now. Good to see one that's rustier than mine though!

Probably the only parts salvagable are the stainless steel bumpers, hubcaps and other trim. Engine and box would need a rebuild. Steering rack might be worth saving, the reconditioned units nowadays are decidedly iffy.

Don't think I have seen anything this stuffed with an MoT in a very long time. Oh and it's no offers. 

In the words of Mikey in Snatch, "Proper fucked."

I like that. If its not hiding any horrors I don't think it's over priced.

They’re not “L” wheels and the bumpers look too fancy too.

Lol, yeah I did, but the Rover is too nice for that. The Rovers he sells are usually on their last legs.

There's quite a deep port at Liverpool, so you could throw the wheels, the chrome arches and those bloody annoying £1 shop floor mats in there on the way home.
