parts?

It's a rusty, high mileage 2.2 with cloth interior and headgasket and suspension problems. Not worth much in parts or when fixed.
Best avoided IMHO.


"We came across this very solid example of these appreciating classic pillarless coupes at our local MOT station where the owner had been instructed to sell it on behalf of an estate. With all the parts there to finnish the car and the good intentions of a million men we bought the car and trade plated it back to the yard, where it has sat - since june."

Translation....Someone brought it in for scrap and we thought it looked too good to weigh in but after months of messing with it we admit defeat and want to shift it on to some other mug to try and fix.

Numerous mechanical problems, rust and low spec. Avoid

^What LowMilerAMG said.

Matalan Interior (cloth) wheels from a 210 - which look remarkable fresh for not moving since 2007. Look at that tickover speed too. Looks like it has just been doused in Traffic Film Remover. Move along, nothing to see here.

Edit.

No picture of the engine says Wes.

That's because it probably in the boot with the rest of the junk that comes with it.

Edit. Premium Sound System - Come on its a tape deck!!
