Hi guys,

I haven't renewed my membership yet which is why I'm putting this in here (the wrong place I know)

I'm selling the silver 5, it's been off the road now for just over a year now and is just sitting there gathering dust, and I have no intention of putting it back on the road for now.

I'm going to be getting a new car now due to the motorway miles I'm doing back and forth from work and can't justify putting it back on the road just to do that.

So it has no MOT or Tax atm, but for those of you who know the car will know there is a decent engine under there.

I have bought a few things that can go on the car such as rear brakes etc that I can put on the car. And I can also use a friends traders plates to deliver the car if necessary.

I'm looking for only £1000 for it to go to a loving home.

Cheers

Dan 07966899969

p.s car is now in Wolverhampton.:)

This was Bretts old car? Well worth the money for what has been spent on that car, but still might put people off with no MOT, good luck with the sale.

If its Bretts old 5 then that's a steal. No reason why it won't pass an MOT if its still mechanically and visually in the same decent condition as when Brett owned it.

The Silver original side decals or the ones Jas put on? I liked the silver on silver. Very subtle.

Thats a shame really as nice wheels on the silver 5. Well got a reply back from him and will have a chat tonight, seems that needs some welding on the sill but other than that haven't been moved for ages but should still be good with a nice clean and freshen up

Are you going for it dale? I'll leave it Ifso matey

Bigfoot

Will be a split adventure with me and my mate, more than likely he will be driving around it most of the time as I already have 3 cars, two of them being 5s but will work on getting it up to scratch plus lots of new parts from my work place :)

Just messaging him Rich to find out more details, Sam on here rung me up seeing if interested on it, will be getting pictures tomorrow of it. More than welcome to enquire about it, as distance is still a small problem with collection but nothing is impossible with a few pounds here and then to bring it back.

Hi again guys!

Wahey Brett how's it going? Yea the cars still running fine and if I had more time and was more selfish I'd be driving it too and from work but that seems harsh.
As Dale said the sills look like they need a bit of work.

Since I bought it I've put coilovers on it, 285 cam and twin morrette head lamps. So all that will go to the new owner just because I'm nice like that. Also has practically new eagle f1s on the front and t1rs on the back.

I'll get some pics tomo as I'm not in wolves at the mo.
