Well the time has now come to get shut of her so i will post this to try generate enough interest to sell her as bits.She is dark greyish,black(even looks green when you look closely)Leather and all the toys.Good bumpers ect.Sweet engine(98,000ish)new front spring,new back pads.Only failed M.O.T. on rear brakes(that d**n modulator thing)Well ive had enough and so if theres interest in Her for parts to keep others sweet then it has to be.It is really a shame to break Her up but i need to pull back at least £350 so i will await the outcome.

I am after a few bits such as seat belt pre-tensioners (not electric), rear bumper, bit of carpet from over the pedals, passenger side air bag cover (if Pumice).

So depending where you are...... ;)

Seems crying shame to ditch her mate on back brakes. :'(

Bit of a rash decision no?

Have today found that i no longer have a place to store this vehicle and so She has now ended up on ebay.Item 4613530846 to anyone who may have interest.Sorry to anyone in need of parts but i have no other option without storage.Yes it is a shame to ditch her because of back brakes but she already drinks more than me and has had more money from the cash machine than my other half has.

nice motor mate. best of luck. I would buy them all if i could afford it.

Incidentally, just out of interest, is there a fuel prob? How come it says only 11miles left on quarter of a tank?

No wonder you complain of her thirsty-ness :-/

Surely it must say 19 miles on the computer as it will probably have just started up and be running on full choke - the temp gauge hasn't moved ???

Anyway sorry it didn't sell mate, you going to keep it and get it repaired then?

Hi there! I'm new to this, but sad for your loss (which is same as mine). Couldn't imagine having to part with "my precious" ... I swear he has a hyper-intel link to anticipate my needs, and responds so dynamically I have to grin every time! Anyway, my reason for posting is to ask about your CATALYTIC CONVERTER - is it intact? does the engine/exhaust still purr and rumble? any idea of selling price (if still breaking for parts)? I really need to replace mine quickly (overdue MOT and emissions a big problem), sorry for ruthless approach, but ... needs must!
