A LOVELY XANTIA HDI EXCLUSIVE ESTATE
Taken it off market as i has no mot at the mo plus valve stem seals and clutch need doing and with all this its worth nowt but is of sentimental value to us. Since weve had it weve spent a LOT of money on things like undersealing, rear arm bearings, bla bla bla. The minimum the car owes us is £400 and i dealy thats what we would let it go for as it is a rare colour and has a rust free body. We know with no mot (but it wiil pass im sure) it wont fetch much. Also we live to far away to attend vewings as the cars near you vanny in macclesfield. so unfortunatly the cars going to sit there and deteriorate uless some one comes up with £400 to save it which is highly unlikly plus its currently serving as a deterrant on my nannas driveway as she lives alone
Hi vanny hes intrested in it. But like i said my dad wont part with it for less than £400. At the mo ians trying to find some cheap way of getting it from macc to derby so he can give dad the money he wants. Prehaps you could help?????? as its a pain being 318 miles away!!!
Ian investigated knock sensor and it appears not to have one??? also light has now gone out and works as it should (had it runnig a few times while i was there) could simply be down to damp ness cause its not being used. If its still there by summer weve got plans to come over and work on it providing we have addequite funds
Maybe Billy could get his van fixed and take it down that way?
Otherwise there is a place local to me that hires a trailer out for £40 for the weekend and maybe Cav can be convinced to drive it around?? Or anyone else up for a bit of a mission (only those with special license need apply!)
More than happy to do what i can, and after the 20th i'll have a car again. Wont have a magic license till summer though!
