Adds up to a few pennies.
New brakes and exhaust fitted, but MoT has been out for almost a year so cam belt has been on for 1-2 years and it did 15,468 between MoT's.
Year before car did about 20 miles so was sat around. Looking back over old MoT history the car has not been looked after, I hope new coolant was put in when water pump was done and not just water, but then again it's going to take some flushing to get all the oil from the system.
I would add a new cam belt kit to the list just so I was happy. Rear bumper on here for £250 but then you would need the twin Irmscher tail pipe too. So over £1000 plus sale price to have a good car.
I think I just talked myself out of this and I was not going to bid anyway.
There is about £600 of Irmscher kit on it. He would do better just putting that on e-bay and the car down the tip I would also have the wheels and tyres off first. But that's just me
