. They want £600 for it.. It's a mark 1 A C reg... Worth it or...?(needs a bloody good clean, got green stuff over it)(not sue if its original paint job?)
£600 seems a decent price. Cat D wouldnt put me of a car of this age, just check everything is still straight and ok with the suspension. Clutch is an easy fix and if it comes with 12 months mot looks good. If i ever buy another mk1 i'll buy on bodywork condition alone, mechanically everything else can be fixed or replaced.£140 ish for a new clutch not including fitting. If the bodywork is as good as you say it is then i reckon its a bargain. Only problem would be keeping it in good condition, waxoyl it etc.platmatt8 wrote:Lauren has got bigger balls than most men on this site

£600 with a lot more MOT
, it was mint when i sold it 3 years ago and a very solid car ., i hope its not this car . .
. 
.. Are they a pain to fit with the engine being in the back? It really is simple with plenty of space to work.un1eash wrote:The mk1 is one of the easiest clutches I've done.
.. I think I will pop in again tomorrow and see if he is open to offers... Since its been owned by a fellow member and is now in need of some TLC I think i will try and save it!

Its the same car I'm afraid to tell you
Really? not bad.
, this car as won 3 shows and had 100.s of hours spent on it getting it to a Concurs conditions , i cant believe its up for 600 pounds ,and not been looked after its an insult to the car . i sold it for 2600 pounds and i know the lad who had it after me wrapped it in cotton wool and only drove it in the dry and it was in a heated garage . he brought it back to me for the mot a year later and it sailed through . he then sold it as he never used it and his wife thought it was a waste of money sat in the garage doing nothing and he was gutted when he sold it. the only problem he had with the car was the clutch slave cylinder due to lack of use . the color is original white grey and the mileage will be correct .

.. I think i will definetly be popping in tomorrow and splashing some cash. It deserves it!Is that the original colour scheme? I thought it was MK1B only.
.. As the guy who is selling it openly admitted straight away that it is a Cat D write off so I thought perhaps it has had a respray after the crash damage?Lauren wrote:Is that the original colour scheme? I thought it was MK1B only.
, its a 1A colour for sure , code is Two Tone Color Combination - 2Z9 = 041 + 157 , i know of 1 minter and he paid 3000 pounds last year for it , a shame hes not in to clubs or showing, its just a piece of garage jewelry now waiting for the prices to go up ( the original 1 owner died and his wife sold it in the local paper with 21000 miles on the clock from new ) . Will effect its value although I'm not worried about reselling. I want one to keep/show/restore. .. As the guy who is selling it openly admitted straight away that it is a Cat D write off so I thought perhaps it has had a respray after the crash damage?, i never checked the cars history tbh and wouldn't at the price , i won the car on ebay for 325 pounds after a quick bid and won , i went to pick the car up and it wouldn't start ,so after a quick barter i got the car for 225 pounds and loaded it on to the truck . i knew what the problem was and 30 mins of getting it home it was started ( immobilizer was disconnected ) and she fired first time 
. i did notice the whole front was new eg wings , bumper , crash bar and lights but the lad said he brought it of a chap who had it professional rebuilt / restored and was total clueless about cars never mind the mk1 . i did my own research on the last owner before and he was a millionaire who went bust . it was a very good car and well worth 600 notes , get it brought and returned to how it was when i sold it . i won the car on ebay for 325 pounds after a quick bid and won
I must admit though you would never know looking at it even now. I would never of guessed it from looking at it when i saw it.
it was a very good car and well worth 600 notes
get it brought and returned to how it was when i sold it
Wish someone would find my first mk1
