I was shopping around for a front cut and this came up on Pickles auctions while I was up on site:
Made a successful online bid after taking a punt on its condition.
Got a towie to drop it on my front lawn & it was there waiting for me when I flew back.
Looked better than I expected. Battery was dead, but jump started it & it ran great, took it for a lap around the block & found the top hose had been bitten by the alternator pulley when it had the shunt. Easy fix & runs great - even came with log books & a full service history!
A closer inspection showed the newly fitted MASSIVE turbo back exhaust had a leak on the downpipe flange so time for a good MLS gasket
The exhaust could only have been on the car for a matter of weeks. Professionally fitted with missing bolts & cable ties
Still not a fan of the huge cannon
