Oil cooler has gone and he starts it up every month just to mix it up even more, lots of flushing will be needed, plus

Oil cooler kit
Full service
Cam cover joints
Thermostat and bridge
Front wishbones/poly
Gearbox filter and ATF
Irmscher rear bumper as it has not got one

Good point is cam belt and water pump done 10K ago, but how long ago ? If it goes for around £200-250 then you have money in the pot for all the work as car will be worth around £1000-1500 after it's all done.

Now do I bid on it :-\ nooooooooo. :y

You can add front brakes to that list too... no corrosion history though, so be a good potential project ;)

He messaged me with his asking price, I countered with a not so lower offer and it was refused without question. Owner was/is not prepared to budge. Be interesting to see if it gets pulled if/when the bids stagnate.

Basically he wants top money, and were all looking at it realistically.

True, and you are buying more than that, you're buying a car where you know the issues are sorted. You've not got to trust someone else's word that its been serviced, or this and that have been done, because you know. £1000-1500 maybe what its worth if you did the work and sold it, but that car, as a keeper, work done, is worth more than that imho.

There are those of us looking at from a money making view, (profit) and it's a bit rich, but as a personal car, to finish for use then £800 tops, so total spend to go back on road be £1200.
