Breaking my red 5 and Bonnie, all parts to go - Aylesbury

Its been a long hard decision to make and pains me to do it but its time to accept it, my time with 5's is over and its all got to go so both my 5's (red one and Bonnie) are being broken up for spares

The red 5 most will know about it but if not have a look on my profile and you can see what has been done

Bonnie is a fuel injected C1J but is 1776cc capacity with a roller bearing T28 and Omex ecu, a lot is on this car and too much to describe

I will write a list of all parts out tonight for both cars but if anyone is interested in any parts they see or questions about the cars please pm me

Sorry to hear you selling up mate :( k know you have put a lot of work into that red 5 of yours. let me know of any parts on your cars will be useful for mine :)

Trying to put list up but it keeps blanking the page :crap:

Your in luck mate, I have another full 16v dash in the spare garage but its not flocked

Hi Mark,

Just a quick question...are you still interested in working on 5's privately to earn money? Obviously, as I know naff all about the workings of a car (or at best very little), I will always be placing my 5 in the hands of mechanics when I need jobs doing.

So, if you still want to earn a few quid from me I would still be happy to bring my 5 to you. However, I completely understand if you want to break free entirely. I have a couple of mates local to me who would happily tinker on the 5 :)

If for some reason these don't sell, I'll come and collect them with the the 16v bonnet too.
Not worth the travelling just for the bonnet.

Sorry to hear you're moving on mate but you've picked a just as good new project with a 60's beetle.

That's cool will let you know mate :agree:

Possibly interested in your fuel pump and rear calipers as well as the headlights as already pm'd about buddy! :cool:

Are the rears completely brand new never used?, And what calipers have you got on the front? :confused:

:cool:

Mark, I've sent PM regarding the loom + ECU

Such a shame Mark about the red 5 after all the work you have put in. What is actually left to finish on the red 5 and also what would you want for it complete

Also interested in the rear calipers if they don't sell :)

Also interested in the roll cage too for a fellow RTOC member who can't get on till later :) does the cage drop down in front of the dash board :)
