Tax = £100
Gearlinkage = £25 (from a brakers)
Stainless brake hoses = £60
Get thew a MOT = £150 (High emissions as no CAT)
Total = £335
Car stands you at £1185
You could also ask for the spare Gearbox to be 100%
get the paint work/dent fixed say a total of £1300 done
could sell it for £1500 all day long

Its cheap at the price, just needs about the same again spending on sorting it.
1100 quid it would still look like a tatty shed.

It just looks a bit hacked up, grubby & as said before very tired.....that dent on the 1/4 panel is enough to put me off paying more than 100 for it regardless of what engines in it.
It looks like it belongs to the type of gentleman that lives in a static caravan, keeps pigeons & has no teeth...

its a good conversion done by powercrazy.
was one of the first done.
The lad hasnt used it much over the last year because he's had problems with the gears.
To be honest, ive seen it, and yes it is a wreck, but clean it up, and pull the dint out and it will be ok.
At the end of the day its, a sunroof and elctrics model sri with a v6 in it.
You could always reshell it. You've got everything there to do it, hoses, mounts, engine etc. Its had a new gear box cos thats what he thought it was, but i personally think its the linkage thats been lined up wrong.
Oh, its running 5 stud hubs aswel, with v6 discs and calipers, and rear disc conversion.

If it's such a good buy, why haven't you bought it and sorted it out yourself?!
