For Sale - VGC 1988 3 door 340 (non runner) £200

Post by valman »

unfortunately, i need to sell this car as it recently decided to eat a washer from the air box, causing it to slightly bend 2 push rods and score the head on the 4th cylinder.
here are some pictures:

this is a 2 owner car - one old lady owner from new for 22 years and me for almost 3 months (wish it was longer :cry: )
its done just shy of 60k miles - although on the clock it says 15k (had speedo replacement with receipt to prove)
this car comes with every single receipt and bit of paper work - all the repairs were done at the same garage for its whole life which makes this a unique vehicle in itself i think.
car is Taxed (3 months) and MOTd untill the 4th of July

Bad Points:
small bit of rust has come through under the driver's door on the outer sill from the snowy period we had - easily patched though
needs 2 new pushrods and head putting back on for it to be a runner!
Dent on the passenger wing but if you contact theo on here he has a red wing for sale! (was going to buy this but no longer need to)

Having a broken engine and immaculate shell, this makes it an ideal car to use for an F7R engine swap or another crazy project
Price: make a sensible offer
The car is available to view at anytime (contact me first) located at SG17 post code area
contact number:
PM me any questions you might have

this is a bit of a longshot, but im looking for a new car, preferably 200tdi discovery. (obviously cash your way) any other cars you might want to PX let me know

cheers all!

If you wanted, you could have the engine outa mine soon, as I'm doing the F7R swap. Done around 50K Are you in bristol anywhere? Thought I saw a pic of your car outside ashton court gate.

Anyways, you can have it if you like, for free. All works fine. :D
