I am advertising this on behalf of a friend...

Due to moving into his first house and needing to clear his dads garage my friends Sport will be going up for sale. He has owned it for about 6-8 years but never used it.

It is just a shell sat on axle stands at the moment having started a restoration that never got finished. The shell is solid(I think its non sunroof) and has had arch repair panels and welding done, it just needs prepping for the bodyshop and painting. It does need a bonnet but I have a spare one is reasonable condition I can supply with it.

All the parts like the original interior, engine, carb setup etc is present with the car.
A lot of the suspension and brakes have been powdercoated and replaced(ie, the rear beam has been powdercoated and brakes replaced). The car will come with Astra GTE 16v wheels.

I don't have any photos at the moment but we are hopefully going to go through everything in the next couple of weeks to sort it and I should be able to get some photos up.

He is looking for about ?1100 for it complete. He would prefer to sell as a whole but he may break it for bits if there is enough interest.

The car is in Derby

As I said, I do not have any photos yet and I am selling for a friend so I will try my best to answer any questions

Please contact me at richardsillett@ntlworld.com

He also has 6x Compomotive MO's for sale which have recently been refurbed, he has provisionally sold them but if they don't have them they will be for sale for about ?280

Yeah, its a pity he could not finish it. I bet he will be sad to see it go.
Be nice to see it go complete to keep another Sport on the road.

Will be gutted to see this one go, always hoped he would get it on the road. There was me & four mates in Derby that had Sports at the same time, now there is only 3 left round here, soon to be 2 now :(
Got a few people interested but you will have to bare with me on the photos as hes got to sort his garage out.

As said before, its going to be 2-3 weeks before anything happens due to my friends family circumstances. I will contact all parties & post on here but response so far has been good.

Hpi'd it and it is clear. It has four previous owners and it is registered on a C plate as a 'Base model' on the log book.
Also, it does NOT have a sunroof:D
