And I think will, be 'cheap as chips' as the Orange man says
What do you think?

Very low start price for what it is,depends how high the bids go though.The cambelt is 5,000 miles overdue btw.

[alunonhisown]

Have a feeling may be snapped already

Not sure i'd want to pay much for it to be honest, the mileage and being X plod (Lack of kit, probably well worn suspension etc).

Got a feeling you'd be spending a fair wedge of money on it to be honest.

Can't be snapped if it is running on 3-4 cylinders. I reckon that the DIS pack is on the fritz. I'd also look at the crank sensor too.

Almost certainly DIS. I would replace the leads and plugs for good measure. Fairly cheap fix tho, if a bit fiddly!.

I sent this guy a message earlier asking how much he wanted, and just got a reply that he has it advertised locally for £500, so I reckon turn up and show him £350, and it will be a bargain even if you break it, unless you folks know otherwise, just a shame has not got leather.

I'd turn up with a 2,4,6 Dis pack and almost certainly drive it away

Is that corrosion on the boot lid either side of the handle??  or just dirt?

If he couldn't even be bothered to wash it and take a few pics of the interior then he probably had the same attitude towards the servicing etc.

£500 sounds like twice what it's worth with just a month's ticket on it and no tax.

just my opinion of course

If all it needs is a service and a dis pack, then it gotta be worth £350 all day
IMO

Rust, definately.......!!

Looks like 2 sets of 3 holes have been drilled into the bootlid, one either side

Got to be worth £500 of anyones money......!!

Look at it this way, if you get it for £350 and can drive it home after putting a new DIS You'll easily make that in spares.
