LX08 HLM on eBay

[myothercarsa2cv]

My old car is on eBay, it's the bare ali cat D. If anyone wants more information about the car, spec, what caused it to be a cat D etc, feel free to email me on moca2cv at gmail dot com. I want whoever buys it to know exactly what they're buying.

It caught a gate catch on the sump. Pushed the drivetrain back 3". Needed a new chassis, really, you can't know what damage it did to the diff mounts amongst other things. On top it needed a prop, gearbox housing, sump, engine mounts, and certainly the block and diff looked at. It would have needed a re panel as well if you were fussy, as the exhaust hit the side skin on impact. Steering rack was bent too so not sure if it was perfectly straight any more. I think the seller just welded up the chassis where it visibly broke. Don't know about the other stuff it needed.
On the plus side, the buyer has got Tilletts, a Quaife ATB with about 300 miles on it, an Apollo tank, PRRT, silicone hoses all round, and my favourite bit, the black Brooklands screens, so there are some nice bits. Still, I suspect it will owe the new owner a lot of money if they endeavour to fix it properly.
I've got the petty strut to match the roll bar if the buyer is on here and would like it, FOC if collected.
God I miss it...

It was a cat D as it's a 13-14k car, and would have cost a significant chunk of that to repair (new chassis is over 5k for starters). I took the payout as I just didn't know what it was going to cost to repair properly, and I didn't want to be stuck with a lemon. I kind of regret it in a way, I do miss it...
