Not quite a barn find (I'm very sad) the hunt goes on

Saw this gumtree link on rickets867  thread
Used Cars, Vans & Motorbikes for Sale | Gumtree
  and as it was local gave the guy a call, could not believe I only had to walk 2 min to see the car, never knew it was there, was hoping for that elusive barn find that some times turns up, however this was not to be the case, the seller wants 850 for the car, I am putting these pics up incase anyone else saw the gum tree add and wondered what it was like. This might save you the plane fare over to see it. The hunt goes on.
Its going to take a fair wad of cash to put her right. If any one wants more info or photos the seller is happy for me to go back.

the cloths pegs are holding the dash vent vinyl in place !!!!!!!!

Offer him £350 for it and strip it for bits/keep the hard to find bits.

Ivortheengine went to see it 2 years ago and he wanted 1500 but it was in much better shape.

Just sold my mk2 8v after sitting a few years sitting in the drive don't think my good lady would want another breaker so soon lol

The seller wants it to go to someone who will fix her up but i think its really border line now.

Very good funk but its finding the good bits lol

needs a fair bit of love does that, could make a nice dub again for the right money

Looks like the dreaded rust has set in big time... There will be others out there for you to consider...

its a pity it has gone this, far when i saw it , i think the slam panel was intact .

Worth £400 max assuming the engine is even serviceable.

nice number plate though

I agree. £400 would be the very very max I would pay for it! And at that price you would want it running! Its a shame the tinworm has set in. If he wants £850 for it he will be waiting a while. I hope it doesnt just turn into a pile of rust!

See its now on ebay classic cars and getting bids.

got a link?

Was the barn at the bottom of the sea?

Its sitting at £500 on ebay
His pictures dont make it look to bad,he has been careful not to show the bad bits,someone is in for a shock when they pick it up

£500  8O  8O , I would'nt pay £50 for it, let alone £500!

it will fetch 160 on the weigh bridge    i wouldnt go there
