Service history: I know most of it !
Mot expiry Date: March 2008
Taxed or sorn: sorn since MOT failure Feb 2008

 Description: Sadly failed MOT in Feb 2008 and left outside to rot until I can finally bring myself to move on what was once my proudest possesion. She brought many years of unstinting work and very rarely failed me even when used daily. The MOT failure states excessive corrosion to :-
 inner wing susp spring mounting area,
 n/s front wing susp sping mounting area,
 n/s & o/s seat belt anchorage areas
 front both sides outer skin front crossmember structure

In addition doors corroded, front wing rusted badly.
On the plus side she ran pretty well until Feb2008. She has 4 original Alloys and tyres look ok if a bit old. Inside there is an attack of mildew but seats are mostly sound except for wear on drivers seat.
She's been loved to bits - and now she's falling to bits.
She needs someone to take her on as a project of love and get her back on the road where she belongs. Sadly I have neither the time, money or even a fraction of the skill required to get her back on the road so I'm offering her to anyone who'd like to take on a big project.
