That's not a bad offer - but from a guy who happens across a sixty quid estate I wouldn't expect to pay!

You lucky bu****

cheers

Yeah well, this is a brand new in box electric door mirror drivers side. I had it on ebay a while back, some joker (lejoker) to be precise bid £20 for it. After 2 or 3 weeks he hadn't paid for it so I told him not to bother, at that point he paid.

Lejoker or not, bet he wasn't laughing when I returned his payment.

cheeky sod.

its another of the same, if i had somewhere to store it till the summer i'd be uber tempted!

Lejoker, glad to have not seen that goon on Ebay for ages, he had an obsession for bidding on bits he clearly didnt need! WELL ANNOYING

I will be finding out on Monday whether or not I will have secured a garage... that factor will be significant!

Sorry mate its worth far more unseized and MOTed. I would only get a few hundred quid as it is now, If i have to put another engine in it then fair enough as I have one available.

Im hoping that when its running and MOTed then i will easily get upwards of £1000 for it as the bodys practically perfect!

UPDATE

The garage I was hoping to be able to rent insn't available after all, but may be in three or four month's time so unfortunately, without that I can't take on another car for the time being. I stil believe the car's worth saving and the only problem is getting the couple of things needed done, before it can be driven off. It'll need the flat tyre replacing, the 'suspension leak' sorting and a refill with LHM and a couple of other bits like the wiper blade/washer rail, the broken driver's wing mirror. I don't know about the clutch, I could engage gear but the pedal seems awfully high up to me. The gear change felt smooth.

The chap any interested party needs to speak to is Mark, who I've spoken to today and is aware of the possible interest, and he's at:
Edwards & Sons (Cit breakers/repairs)
Oak Lodge
Buckwyns Chase
Billericay

Good luck.
