Cars for Sale & wanted / Re: Wanted: 3.2 Irmscher Estate

MOT expired May 2015 Advisories were:
Nearside Front brake disc worn, pitted or scored, but not seriously weakened (3.5.1i)
Offside Front brake disc worn, pitted or scored, but not seriously weakened (3.5.1i)
Nearside Front Brake pad(s) wearing thin (3.5.1g)
Offside Front Brake pad(s) wearing thin (3.5.1g)
patch repair made to exhaust

Plus Joff`s list
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

Adds up to a few pennies.

New brakes and exhaust fitted, but MoT has been out for almost a year so cam belt has been on for 1-2 years and it did 15,468 between MoT's.

Year before car did about 20 miles so was sat around. Looking back over old MoT history the car has not been looked after, I hope new coolant was put in when water pump was done and not just water, but then again it's going to take some flushing to get all the oil from the system.

I would add a new cam belt kit to the list just so I was happy. Rear bumper on here for £250 but then you would need the twin Irmscher tail pipe too. So over £1000 plus sale price to have a good car.

I think I just talked myself out of this and I was not going to bid anyway.

There is about £600 of Irmscher kit on it. He would do better just putting that on e-bay and the car down the tip I would also have the wheels and tyres off first. But that's just me ::)

Be a flurry near the end,
 The hoof'ers considered it but, with collection, etc not viable, for a keeper no more than £300, sell the body kit, make your money back. :o
Seller wants more than double that :-X

So he is looking at around £800-£1000.  :o

For a car that needs £600 to get it up to date :D

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

Inlet manifold off again this morning and oil cooler area is dry, so checked around and it looks like the HBV has failed again. That's twice in 18 months both replaced with dealer parts. Third time lucky this week then when dealers open again

Think I'll buy two this time and keep one as a spare :-\
