Hi Mick
Depends on the tin rust, nothing said about the chassis, anybody know this car.

Hmm...makes me ask the question how much would a professional chassis restoration cost now?
Just want to log that fact in my mind for future reference !!!

That seems like a nice car for the money. I paid a lot more for an identical car:



If the chassis checks out ok then someone will be getting a deal.

£3795 + VAT from me, or another grand or so to add new bushes, fuel & brake lines etc. Others may be cheaper, but can't vouch for quality

Chassis is the most important bit, though I was slow and missed the listing. What was it up for?

[XK140]

Thanks for the info.
It ought to mean that an S that has had the work done,plus all the other things to put it in A1 condition, is worth a lot more than what appears to be its actual market value at the moment
It makes you think that the prices for good S's can only rise.

Off to have a look at this tomorrow as its just down the road, may put a bid in if it looks ok.

[mk1fan]

I've been told it's sold.

[Jonrav]

Ah, thanks for that, maybe a quick call is in order.

And another? Higher mileage but less than mine. Best colour(BRG!). Nice write up and open to any inspection on the ramps so some confidence in the car. F30 OLH in Doncaster, do we know the car?

What was the out come of the call?

[robinlarry]

"This listing was ended by the seller because the item was lost or broken. "

I'm not sure what that means ...

[greymrj]

Almost certainly that means that the seller has had an offer direct,and has decided to sell it off ebay.

The BRG S1 in Doncaster went for £3101.98 on eBay, a nice car for somebody.

Anyone on here?
