druid Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 Pity you're so far away. I don't suppose you are planning a trip a bit closer to the midlands? Quote

Fc4ster Posted December 23, 2011 Author Posted December 23, 2011 Pity you're so far away. I don't suppose you are planning a trip a bit closer to the midlands? Would try and help you out with the distance, I am currently living in Penrith, However car is located nr Longtown due to garage space. If you are interested I do want this to go to a good home as it was my first manta so i could be tempted to drive it further south for collection.... Quote

manta400john Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 Nice car, have kept an eye on this since you first posted. Bought a white GTE hatch from a Peter Forster down your way.....a few years back now. If I was looking for another right now I'd be knocking at your door, distance is no hurdle when in the market for a Manta!! Good luck with sale. John. Quote

My dad rarely gets on here, He is going to pull his finger out in the new year i think and get on with it. Needs alot of wealding underbody but seeing my silver I200 i bought i think has got him up for it! Will let him know of all your interest and will post some pics on when i can. Quote
