I have not even properly advertised it yet anyway, mentioned it on FB and advert here can only be seen by members anyway. I am due to get it back to the Garage end of the month and got a couple if little jobs to do, like new timing belt kit and exhaust to fit , so if we go back to the tiers mid Feb as expected, so be ready around then and not before anyway. However, there are options if you could compromise with a hatchback though, a couple of nice ones advertised currently.

Mike. Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 (edited) I’ve read on other forums it’s had welding to Swan necks, rear arches require work, this may see it sell for an achievable amount and make a really nice manta once done, I like it a lot, even with the exclusive spoiler.

Had a look at bidding and if it’s done on line ( which is what you have to do) it’s plus 2.5% on top of you pay In fees Then it has to be delivered from the outer side of the country Plus you don’t really know what you’re getting If l get a Manta from the club member, hopefully it will be a honest manta , or if someone is near they can check it out.
