Not sure if this car is saveable, seems a shame if the engine mileage is genuine, may be worth asking the seller?

Already emailed him to find out if its just the engine or the whole car.

Your bidding for the complete car, needs spheres and pipework, still for £50 could be a good buy, no V5 though.

Looks to be a 19TGD.

pleased you bidded!! i was trying to talk myself out!! i also emailed the owner,and sounds to me well worth saving, he wants it gone by bank holiday weekend, which is my problem,i could'nt move it before then (or pay for it) otherwise i certainly would have bidded!! the important thing is that this bx goes to a good home and is not broken up,
if its available in a month or so...........

£132.00 not bad for an MOT failure 65bhp n/a diesel! At that money I expect its not been bought for scrap (I hope).

True, but less £20 for the tyres disposal its not worth it, the guys said he had a few people email him about what model it was and general mechanical condition.

Well it turns out after a conversation this morning, that this car is "in the fold" and is very good hands being restored, a 1 owner low mileage car in very good conidition it turned out to be too

maybe the owner will make himself known
