Re: can someone value my car please :)
1000 sounds reasonable. only prob was a misfire but the new plugs sorted that. had a nearly new radiator on it with the cowl still intact recently too 
will see what a few more people say then get this up for sale as soon as i can (needs a wash)

Re: can someone value my car please :)
hello sid.
sensor has been the same on the washer bottle and the brake pad warning light has only been on since the pads were change so may need the sensor re hooking up.
will look on ebay

Will mk6 ford eacort wheels fit an e30 temp
Car went in for mot but failed on all four tyres, it's not legal to drive so was wondering if I could stand it on 4 mk6 escort wheels while I take the wheels for new tyres? Will the holes line up? Not being moved anywhere just need them
