Same colour as the T2 I bought earlier this year.
I could use that to get this one sorted quite easily and transplant the T2 engine and manual box at the same time*
Would be perfect.
But, that's overpriced. Even for a Prestige.
*yes, complete with fixed sump before hand!

I recognised the username too so I've checked back through my feedback... And I have bought from the guy before quite some time ago - buggered if I can remember what it was though!

Fair do's, yep!
His buy it now price is ridiculous. A mint turbo manual could be worth £3-4k, but most people hate the auto box and this car is far from mint. Still, on the other hand at least the doors aren't rotten (apparently) which is a mega plus point in its favour.

The Athena?
Yes, that's in nice condition. Needs a new front bumper, LHS indicator lens and bumper end cap (all of which I have in the shed
)
No profit to be made on that car though and I can't go buying more of the things just for the fun of it! (no cash/space
)
EDIT:
Ah no, you mean the DTR saloon. Yep that's not a bad buy. Except for the sunroof. They rot like a muffin and it's not just the sunroof that rots, it's the roof itself. Nightmare.
If the bonnet, doors and engine are good, I wouldn't be surprised if someone buys that one to break it rather than fix.
