I'm very tempted, bit of a ways away though, maybe a few quid off to pay travelling expenses?

hi, just put a post up asking for a lada but I like the look of this and its still rwd but could it be cheaper?? I'm very tempted, bit of a ways away though, maybe a few quid off to pay travelling expenses? Come on fellas. I know it's usually customary to try and knock a few quid off a more expensive motor, but you're taking the ![]() newmedia.funnyjunk.com/pictures/powerful-curse word-stream.jpg[/img] This is a car that is MOT'd and on the road for 9 months. He's even prepared to tax it for you at a loss and is worth nearly the asking price weighed in as scrap. This car is a decent solid car that will not loose you money and provide good, reliable service. Worth every penny and then some IMHO |

Should have advertised it for £400 and knocked it down to £300 to give the buyer a bit of a discount.  |

Yes very cheap! jeez, will probably get more on eghey, I'm spent personally, but totally worth £300 as its ready to go, then you get free RWD/drift/classic tax on top. amazing.

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |

I'd have it for sure if it wasn't so far away. I've been quoted £265 to have it delivered to Scotland, which isn't bad but it also kind of reduces the bargain factor a fair bit.

Bloody hell, this is only up the road from me! Think i've seen it around too. Isn't there someone in Welton that has a nice Mk1 Cavalier Hatch in metallic blue?

Andy used to have a nice Cav Sportshatch in metallic blue, he sold it to my missus a couple of years back (see my avatar)! He's now got a nice one in metallic brown, as well as a couple of Mantas and a saloon he's practically giving away!

Underpriced. Can't believe people are saying it should be cheaper! £300 buys zilch these days, it isn't 1998 any more.

I like the way someone implied it should be cheaper so they can get to you. Does that mean if I found a free car 100 miles away I could get the person giving it away to pay my travelling costs too?
£300 is an incredible bargain, I seriously think you'll be looking at £500 minimum on eBay without the road tax.

Andy's not selling any of his Mantas, but I might have something in the near future. I'm just getting my 1800 hatch back on the road and then either it or the GT/E hatch will be for sale.

It is the black one. Andy kindly sorted the welding to the floor last night, I just need to put it all back together, change the exhaust, make sure the brakes still work and get it tested. Simple really. It'll probably only take me a year or so!!!

He's not put it on the bay yet, as if all things pan out it's going to a new owner this weekend. However, no cash has changed hands yet, so it is still on the market if anyone is serious about it.

Just seen this car, seems a very good deal for £400 (if it's still for sale).
