I like this colour (jewish racing gold?) Could be a good buy but these old sheds are quite prone to rot

been after one myself mate over the past year, yeah hes been trying to selll this for a while, ive spoke to him a couple of times about it...

1st time i saw it listed, it was listed for sale, i said can i come see it, said yes but was in his workshop engine in bits, to fix a fault with it being lumpy and smokey, so i enquired, said obviously id like to drive it etc, he said a few days wel know, so i waited, waited, it didnt sell, i sent another message , he ws a bit vague about it

this is about the 4th time since, and he says "drives very well a bit lumpy on idle needs a tune up" i asked him the next time it was up for sale, about 3 months later, if i could come see and test drive it, he again said it wasnt driving but was hoping to be by end of the auction

somethings wrong with the engine basicly, to be avoided

That is a pity, these cars need saved!! My dream garage would have a 190e cosworth and e30 M3 parked along side each other :cool:

I love 190's in this colour or black.

There is another Jewish racing gold 190 cosworth on eBay. It's been there for an age but seller asking too much it seems!

ive always fancied one in the gold, a gold 190e and a silver tech 1, would make a good pair of 80s machines :cool:

that the 6k one ? thats been on there forever, makes you wonder how much the listings must cost ?

this southampton one, who knows what its like, in about 5 times of listing surely a few must have gone to view it and walked away ? , he sounded like a decent fella on the phone, then again most would...

wish i knew enough about them/them engines to have a good look at it, it may of been abused to within an inch of its life and the engines fooked, who knows ?

its been on there forever it seems, surely they get the message its not going to sell at that price

the "right" one would be a great investment at the current prices i think
