Reason for sale is simple; I've found something newer that I fancy and I feel someone else could do it justice.

The good.
I'm the second owner of the car.
74,000 miles.
Full service at it's last MOT
It's MOTed until Novermber and I've just put six months tax on it.
The interior is in very good condition and would come out mint after a good hover.
It drives really well and is super reliable, it's never let me down
It's good on fuel and very comfortable.
It comes with a heap of spares, from memory there is a bonnet, various pieces of trim, spare rear lights, grills and a bunch of other stuff.
The car comes with loads of history, original booklet, old MOT's, bill of sale and a repair manual.
The body is solid for a 30 year old J, the sills and underneath are solid. The arches are solid too.
The bad points.
The body work looks rough, simply because I tried to sort out some rough filler work that had been done previously and never got around to getting the car painted. The car does have some surface rust around the arches and in the corner of the the windscreen. The rain gutters also have a bit of surface rust but is nowhere near rotting through.
I had also (poorly) filled some holes in the body work where some side trim has come off, I thought it better to fill them in than have them rust. There was a hole in the bottom of the nearside wing that I have filled.
The nearside rear window also doesnt wind up or down, I think something on the winder may have broken inside the door?
The car will come on its original steel wheels as I've sold the BMW wheels and most would prefer it that way and comes with all the spares, the spares would probably fit in the back if you fold the back seats down.
All in all its a genuine little car that someone needs to take on and give some love.
I'm looking for about £700 for it, just to claim back some of the money it owes me. Serious offers will be concidered. I'm offering it here first before it goes on eBay. I will be sorry to see her go as the car has bundles of character and gets a lot of attention, i just feel like I'm slowly ruining it when someone could be making her good again.
I'd like her gone as soon as, I'm have my ear chewed by the neighbours and the local banger racers have thier eyes on it!
