Anyway, this is the 1g I went up to Sheffield to buy ages ago, but came away empty handed because it was definitely too far gone, no matter how much I tried to convince myself otherwise





It was all complete, manual and turned over really freely when we jumped it, but we couldn't get it to fire.


Interior was complete and in good nick (though carpets grubby)

Absolutely loved the interior tbh and was amazed at some of the kit it had on it - service lights, electric aerial and sunroof etc.

Extendable filler nozzle for the rear screen washer bottle


It also came with a boot full of some bits;

Things like the sills being a bit rotten didn't really bother me (they're areas that are relatively simple to make up on a car this age and I'm pretty sure you could use bits from Acclaim sills tbh).
Likewise I wasn't bothered about the front being bent, that can always be sorted (the chassis legs were still straight as was the slam panel)

The reasons it was too far gone for me, was the rust that was also in all the difficult places on the shell...
'A' pillar

Around the sunroof and along the shut lines of the drivers door;

Around the filler neck on the rear wing;

etc. etc. (I stopped taking pics)
Also the sunroof was cracked (where on earth would you get a replacement?)

Having been in one now though, I really do want one more than ever
