Mine are wrapped up and stacked in the garage. If they didn't have tyres on they would be in the spare bedroom :D

Just seen it plastered over one of the facebook sites, looks like some mug has fallen for it. Wonder how long before it's relisted?

Yes, that only leaves another £2,955.00 worth of parts to take off to break even.

If you could bottle the genuine 1984 air in the tyres Martin that would be another £20 on the Bay of Thieves perhaps :D :D :D

People see a once desirable old Ford & think its worth lots :banghead: :banghead:

It is a tad overvalued to say the least, not enough of it would seem to be a worthwhile breaker unless it was pretty much free & too much to restore economically, apart from headlining & sunroof handle, the V5 is probably the most valuable bit for the unscrupulous types ….. sad really :(
