If anyone does (Twiglet! Pay attention lol) I will pay over the odds for that intake Mantzel air box!

Any takers?  8)

If its still around at month end, i'll try and raise the cash for the whole car and break it myself!  :D

£900 for a breaker !! its not even a facelift.Good luck with it Paul. It has a couple of nice parts that would sell,but I cant see it returning £900 in a month of sundays. ;)

Thats only a few miles up the road from me, surprised Ive never seen it, think I have to agree too much money TBH, but if anyone is interested in taking it on, I dont mind going to have a look.  ;)

I totally agree on the initial cost of the car, hopefully it won't sell to easily so I could use some bartering to get it cheaper! Car of that age and condition should go for £500 max!

Fast road cams, where do these come from? And 250 bhp from a 3,0 with that silly airbox and remap (which are known to make no difference), dream on... that would be 20% more power to the original, never...  :-X
Steering wheel looks nice though  :y

urm ist it a 2.5 or a 3.0? 
 and that air box might sound nice but will lose power as its drawing hot air in from the engine bay.
 sell or keep all the good bits then re sell it, and flea bay the air box,
 thats my thoughts.
