Was this on ebay and didn't originally make it's reserve?

Good buy for £450, my mate wanted to buy it but never got his arse in gear.

For a good local specialist, try leaders engineering in St Leonards.

yeah the guy that was selling it got pissed off with people saying they would like to see it but then never turning up
he had lowered his reserve to 550
i went down on the day i phoned him
went for a drive found noisy wheel bearing
he said make him an offer
so i did
and he pulled it from ebay
it really is clean totaly different from the pic on ebay
interior isnt worn
no rust in the usual places
pretty good car

Looks like a non-sunroof model - ideal candidate for a track toy after an engine swap. Nice one! :)

Looks like a nice base for some tastefull mods. I'm breaking a 318iS which has some ideal parts for your car including some mint 15" BBS wheels.

Nice straight car and a bargain for £450.

Look forward to seeing what you do with it.

Oh and +1 for the 15" BBS :cool:
