Am going to look at this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BMW-325I-SE_W0QQi ... dZViewItem tomorrow for a project car as its only down the road from me.

What is it worth with the work that needs doing, no MOT or tax?

Thanks :thumb:

bushes and welding costs will make Ԛ£400ish

Its been tidied for sale, you can see the hoover marks in the carpets :lol:

As long as it runs/drives and doesn't make strange noises or overheat.

TBH, the seller looks to be a professional dismantler from the other cars in the pics, make a low offer and stick to your guns, The vehicle is effectivly scrap(no mot/tax) so should be priced accordingly, I'd pay no more than Ԛ£150 for it, but I'm a tight cnut :D

Thanks lads, am looking for something pretty solid for either a 3.5 or Rover V8 conversion. The welding to the floor could be a problem though.

It's worth a good Ԛ£200. Wheels and OBC would get back most of that on ebay.
"Three small holes" in the floor wouldn't worry me much, if they are small and not just "the tip of the iceburgh".
