My old car maybe up for sale as the chap hasn't had much chance to use it. He will want serious money for it though.
Thanks Mike
wow that looks brand new

Will keep my fingers crossed than!
I know to a j plate white one for sale local to me went to have a look at it tonight what's a little bit of work but has a lot of potential to be a really nice car with a bit of time an cash put into it he wants £3000 or very nearest offer

Couple if pms have arrived.
Keep them coming....
to be honest id agree with milage thing clocks are so easy to change an with a few different owners it not hard to find a discrepancy in any 5s history. from what i could see the shell looked very gd only things i couldn't 100% see was the upper sills but what i could see might just need a small rust scab sorting and the lip where the inner an outer panel meet are a bit scabby
if i was after a 5 to buy now i would go for it you struggle to find a j plate one for less that doesn't need massive amounts of work
I was going to look at this but didn't bother in the end, how come you didn't buy it Ryan?
Purely out of interest, what would your budget be if a standard phase 2 came up with 69k on it and a full mot?
Completely standard with the exception of the exhaust but a standard rear box would be included. Even has the original tape player
Mileage isn't important as my old one sold after me with a lot less miles. There is a standard F reg in white phase 2 non sunroof which the bloke could be tempted to sell by me. Gave him my number years back when I see it and said call me if you want to sell.
Will try get more info when I pass. Was very tidy inside and out when I serviced it last year for him as had a good look over. He just doesn't use it anymore as in his 50's
I was looking for some thing I could just buy an drive over the summer. I've already got 3 5 gt's but there all at different points of being rebuilt ones just gone to the body shop
Being a j plate none sun roof thought it was worth a look as it was local, if I wasn't putting a load of money into getting the other 3 sorted I would have got it. It's ideal for someone after there first one or as a starting point with about 300 to 400 put into it it would be a really tidy 5
What u mean bout the vosa report ? When I checked the it was hip clear?
Same here mate, there are a few popping up for sale currently but nothing tidy that's ready to drive, they all need some sort of work be it paint, welding or engine but I suppose that's 5's for you!
No, did tell him to join but doesn't get much free time.
Also a nice grey or black 5 would be considered.
I have the money chaps and I'm not wasting anyone's time.

It was fully restored in 2000. New doors, wings, cills, bonnet etc. all receipts with it since a year old. 3 or 4 owners. Every receipt and bill in a folder. It does have some bubbling around the bottom of the screen but that is the only defect. Engine is sweet as a nut and has never ever been apart. Last 3 MOTs have never even had an advisory. It's a very genuine and honest car. Mileage is backed up by service history and old MOTs.
In all the time I've owned it, she's never let me down once. It made 140.5 bhp on 12psi and 146 at 14psi.
It's a real gem of a car to be fair.
£5,250 would see it go to a new keeper.
I can vouch for Ross's car and for ross (slammed 66) I have seen his car up close and even had a look underneath it and driven it. The car is in great condition drives spot on and the history with it is second to non if I was looking for a renault 5 I would buy this one without any hesitation.
The question may of been asked as lately iv seen 3 or 4gt turbos sell for around 2-3.5k and then they have popped up on dealer sites for twice as much, most recent case being a white ph2 currently on autotrader for 7999 and it was bought from eBay for 3250, I was in contact with the original sellers but missed out by a couple hours
Gotcha.
No I want one for myself but want to take my time so I don't end up with a shitter.
I currently own a E63 AMG estate which i use daily for the family, and want a hobbie for the weekend!
Search and "ant1" on cliosport, MLR, MB, RS246 etc if you want to check.

Going back to original thread title I'm sure Mike @GT Spares is building a red one. Maybe drop him a line?
Ive just linked it a mint red GTT on the FB page.
I dint think I can link externally but I'll try.
