think he needs to take it off ebay lol.

 

what colour you wanting it?

 

 

im thinking either merc nova violet or a bronze colour

i picked it up this afternoon for the grand total of £90

he offered it to me for 250 so i agreed assuming it is as per his description

which it was not

2 more tears in the roof and he could not start it and a few other niggly bits

he told me that it had to go today as it was on his neighbours drive

so i offered him 50 and we ended at 90

 

after the deal was done he did look a bit peeved as i bump started it down the hill he lived on then drove it on my trailer

i will put up pics when i figure out how to

Looking at the Photos, Get a new roof, a vinyl one will only be about 250 fitted, and you'll still be quids in on the deal if you only gave 90 for it. Not worth 'spoiling the ship for a ha'pence of tar'
