FREE TO FIRST ONE WHO WANTS IT, MUST COLLECT

there will be the odd couple of bits missing (water pipes, dizzy but can supply one, plugs and leads) but pretty much ready to rock. has 111,000 miles (best guess, no mot's and clock reads 11,000) no knocks, bangs or rattles. never noticed any smoke but i'm guessing it must do a little, sloight oil leak, but doesnt use much at all. drives smoothly, enjoys having its knackers kicked good and proper. comes with a 4 speed f10, clutch is either on its way or needs cable adjusting (doesnt slip, just a high bite point)

i've only run the engine sine may when i bought the car and never had any problems with it, altho i'm guessing it could do with a service and belts (never bothered as i knew it was getting replaced)

engine will be out of the car for next weekend, located WA16, 5 minutes from J19 M6:thumb:

its a 1.2 of course its nippy...

to be fair to the little screamer i'd say it was at least as quick as my 1.8 cav, if not a little nippier
