Hi Guys,
I Parted with my CDX 2.6 Auto as got offered double what i payed for it so decided to take on a project a little rough round the edges at the minute but some of you may have seen this car floating around eBay, but once i went to view theres a bit more to it than 'Spares and Repairs!!'
For the Last 23 Months she sat in a builders yard under a tree after the Previous owners wife decided a post was a good addition to the rear bumper!, Ive looked in depth of the work that has been carried out on the TD and turns out the Previous owner was not shy on spending money when needed on it, Its had a New Lift pump, refurbished Injectors New fuel Lines from tank To pump, Turbo and Intercooler. All this was done before she had a Prang, They then replaced this one with an Elite TD to which they still have today but rather than spend money on having it repaired it sat under its tree,
Coming to his senses he decided to put up on eBay as 'spares and repairs' as Tax and Mot had expired where it had been sitting for so long, he had is recovered from the yard to his house to where I purchased it from. aparently a few OOFers had been to view it but he refused the sale due to the fact it wasnt his it was hers!
So Long story short (ish) here is the state of it when i first picked it up and had it delivered to my house and yes it really hadnt been cleaned since it stood Mould was starting to develop on the inside due to scuttle been blocked with so much Tree over the seasons.
Here you can see the damage to the rear Bumper and how-on-the-piss the Boot Lid is
