Ive just gone to collect my car from the pub only to find the inside burnt out!:mad:

Seems a electrical fault melted the dash.

I know your meant to put prices up for stuff but right now im far to pissed of so heres a list of stuff i know is still good and ill work out what i can save when i get it back to the workshop.

Clear light lenses front and rear
Rear roll cage (steel its and ex hillclimb car)
14 inch alloys with good tyres
lowered springs and dampers (no makers mark)
good engine/5 speed gear box, 44,000 miles
good rear seats

im off to get drunk
i hate cars

Ive calmed down a bit now. we dragged it back to my work today. the inside is a mess. thankfully the inside was allready pretty bare so it just burnt itself out. if id had a headliner and carpets etc i reckon i wouldve lost everything.

3rd party only insurance as well which is why im breaking it as i need cash to get me some sort of ride for winter.

Im in Guernsey in the Channel islands. posting small parts wont be a problem ?10 -?15 depending on size/weight. the larger stuff im unsure of exactly tho i have recently had a Suzuki GSXR sent here for only ?60 if you give me some address is ill find out shipping costs.

Ill get some pics in my lunch break tomorow and get you all prices.

Engine has 44,000 miles on clock, standard. no knocks, no smoke or rattles and drove smooth. had cambelt, water pump and thermostat at 42,000 miles (at my work when previous owner had it) when i got it i fitted new plugs cap and leads and changed the oil n filter.

Gearbox perfect. Passenger side Drive shaft was brand new less then 1000 miles ago, drivers side had new boot/regrease on outer CV and neither of them make noises.

Rear brake shoes and cylinders were replaced last month. front brakes good. havnt studied how much pad/disc wear is left.

im not sure exactly how much lower the springs/shocks are. ill measure them from wheel centers to lip of arch tomorow

bodywork not great, all there but was resprayed and not that well by previous owner. as i was wanting it for a winter hack and then to sprint/hillclimb it in the summer the paint didnt bother me.

Alloys are 14inch Vauxhall rims is suspect as being from a corsa.

Roll cage is rear half, has been repainted in white. has removible diagnal and mounting brackets for a front section

All under bonnet electric components good.

Ill get some pics up then you can all have a good look (and i can be pissed off more). 1st offers to people here then whats left will be Ebayd
