You might want to add your location too, and some photos wouldn't hurt either.

Have you seen the prices of ones that dont need even half as much work? Think you might be being a little optimistic there!

personally i'd elaborate on your description a little, not to put you or the car down but from where i am i see

"engine in runs mint when running" "fuel pump is blocked so when I had it running it was a bit slugish"

Mint when running would make me think its a brand new untouched engine, i'd even go as far as you've had an engine in the corner of your garage wrapped up since 1989 when you bought it from vauxhall, not even rebuilt engines are called mint

"but currently has no rad and needs wiring sorting out to get it started again" "12month m.o.t."

How does it get 12 months MOT with an engine thats not wired with no radiator

Fully agree with all of this, There is no reason why it wont sell (Except the high price) but nobody is going to buy it with that description which appears to be a poor attempt to mislead any buyer!

its his he can sell it for what ever he likes, if you dont want to pay that much then best just looking for another car you wouldnt find your self walking around a car lot bitching about how much traders sell there s reg puntos for so why do it on here.

ye cheers, right ill explain now then, 2 days before pvs, i had a rad in the nova and it was running mint so i got it an m.o.t, i drove down to pvs in the car it was totally fine ran mint, then on the way back it started playing up running a bit slugish, so when i got back i disconnected the wires to make sure they wasn't a break in them, and the rad i had to take off to put on my other car that it was currently in

rigt then, i put a rad on the nova 2 days before pvs that i took off my other car just to use, so then i got an m.o.t on the nova as it was running fine then, i drove down to pvs in still was running mint no problems what so ever, then on the way back it started running sluggish like they wasn't enough fuel getting through to the engine, so i disconnected the wires when i got back just to make sure they wasn't any breaks in them, i had to put the rad then back on my other car
