Drives really!! Well.. Been owned by atleast 2 owners from Rt, One being Rich in redditch. And another as hes contacted my but i forget this name i do apologise :?
Bad points:
A few hardly noticanle small car park dents in drivers door :-(
Small scratch on spoiler.
Seems to be loosing a small ammount of coolant sometimes?? Expected split hose some where, But i havent had time to look yet :(
Dosent seem to be leaking now?? Booked it in at a garage and the chap tightened a few loose hoses etc.

Its generally a great car!!! But work traveling commitments have changed so need something more economical and less stressfull on the ears and bones :lol:

Mods: All done by previous owners so im sorry if im sounding al little vauge??
Baileys dv
Suspension changes, Not sure what but shakes you about over potholes.
Uprated gear box as well apparentley.
Colour coded front grill.
Boost contoller (Manual) running at 9-10 psi
Boost gauge mounted inside the car at bottom of centre cosole, Nice and neat job :D

Recent work:
Cambelt @ 79500
New handbrake cable for mot.
1 new tyre

Sure theres more but, just ask away if theres anything you wouldlike to know.

As stated i am only putting the feelers out at the moment, But looks like it will have to go sometime soon.

I will also consider virtually any swop/deal.

Thanks for looking Ian

Just to add:

Pm from 2 owners ago when i first purchased it..

hello mate, right the gearbox is a steel cage jobby, so its much stronger. This cost £750. its 40 mm on gmax suspension all round. The turbo was done at around 50k i think of the top of my head the recipt was sold with a load of paper work to the last owner, did you get it all? The cambelt was done last year at rover in kettering, also a new distributor pack,leads and plugs. I had the car mopped at my mates bodyshop and had all the swirls removed. If you search my previous threads i posted pics up of her.

May help with pricing etc?

I might look into the leak, but i havent decided yet??

Yeh i may try and get it sorted as i think it will make a difference to selling it as people say.. Its just the good old time and money situation.. Thanks for the kind offer.. I may even take you up on it :-)

Im 99% its not h/g related as there is no leakage from the exhaust, and no coolant/oil mix and runs as perfect as ever. Temp never moves above half at the most..

Is a great car!! I see why people like them so much... Just drives me mad and long distances what with d/v noise and exhaust rumble, and ofcourse being shaken to bits over pot holes, Must be my age :roll:

clean it up a little and sort out the small issue and you might get £2000+ seen a few on ebay and pistonheads go for a snip over £2000 :)

Lou tends to shift FDH's for between £2500-£3000+ all day long. For the sake of sorting the leak out, is it worth losing that kind of money?

I heard that's something to do with some special viewing arrangements and a nurse outfit?
