breaking '99 estate with irmscher kit
« on: 20 June 2009, 19:01:58 »

I recently bought a '99 mini facelift estate mv6 with full irmscher kit on with the intention of repairing the engine (suspect head gasket), and using it. unfortunately its not as tidy as i hoped and am not sure if i want to do all the work on it including all the tidying up etc. Just wondering what people think the irmscher kit might be worth and if there would be enough interest to warrant breaking it? All opinions welcomed...  :)

Define the 'full' Irmscher kit?  The full bodykit, or the Irmscher bodykit that MV6 left the factory with?

Hard to tell from the pics, but they looked like the standard sideskirts, aftermarket Irmscher are shaped IIRC  :-/

The skirts are Irmscher but there's not much difference between then and standard.

I've also got a facelift irmscher front grill (chrome edged type) for £100 posted and an irmscher steering wheel (facelift matt wood effect trim type) as new for £90 posted. These are only for sale because my facelift mig has now gone and i never got around to fitting them.

Does the normal airbag and ICE switches off a facelift steering wheel fit onto the Irmscher steering wheel?
