mantaray Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I have been contacted by a fellow member who does not understand computers, regarding his car which is up for sale. I did do a service on the car last year, and as far as I can remember it was a solid car, there was some rust in the paint work but the underside was good as I remember. He has lost the storage space for it and need it moved ASAP. No MOT or Tax been off road for about 6 months. Original Radio 95000 mile aprox £1000 ono.

Irmscher Man Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Just for some extra Info, as I was also contacted by this guy last night - he obviously forgot that he had spoken to Chris the night before..... ! - 1.8 GT - Automatic - Hatch1987 D Plate - Steel Grey (quite a rare colour nowadays) - Same owner for last 10 years - SIlver GT/E Wheels - Original Interior, which is apparently in very good condition - Lots of history with the car - original bill of sale / receipts / MOTs and Tax disks etc As Chris mentioned, he is about the lose the storage for this car, so it must go ASAP otherwise it will be pushed into the street and probably towed/crushed. It was last on the road in April, and only lack of funds prevented it from being taxed/MOT'd again this year as the owner lost his job. Contact TONY HARRIS - 07795 578 621 Located in FINEDON, NORTHANTS.......(just up the A45 from Billing!!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MANTAMAN Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 - 1.8 GT - Automatic - Hatch1987 D Plate - Steel Grey (quite a rare colour nowadays) I have seen pictures of this hatch to day when visiting the NEC Show ( well worth going to ) the colour of this hatch i believe is Platinum, a light silvery/grey colour that was a rare exclusive colour, ( steel grey is blue/grey colour ) i have never seen it on an 1800 before, GT, Auto, Platinum, this has to be a unique surviour.
