Picked up a V6 Vectra SRI yesterday
« on: 28 February 2010, 14:47:50 »
It is in love condition shame to break it but still.

Anyway, it has an Irmscher Back Box on it with the "i" stamped in it, what is it worth ?

Not had chance to have a proper look yet but not a lot I dont think. The guy said it was running on 4 cylinders and sounded like a bag of spanners, but when I tried it today after charging the battery it was turning over but not firing :D
The cams are spinning so the cambelt has not broken :y the water does not thump out of the reservoir bottle when turning over so I dont suspect the head gasket either... I need to get the computer on it but I think either Dispack or crank sensor :y :y :y :y then someone is going to have a bloody lovely car ;D

When the engine is running how it should, I will put it through its MOT which I am sure it will fly through as it is nothing short of gorgeous, there is no scratches bumps or anything on it, the history and MOTs with it must be half inch thick.... I will need to see how much they go for, I would like to keep it but far to many toys already  ;D

PM me with what you think it is worth. I will take some pictures I'm sure you wont be dissapointed :y
