Anything that we haven't found a buyer for is making its way on to ebay in due course, a couple have already been sold on there. Have you got any idea what sort of special edition the chevette is? It's this one from what i can see,don't think it had a name just Chevette Special.It was proper Vauxhall edition rather than a dealer promo job. They were based on a L spec with alloys and two tone paint,1981,82 ish ?  |

Edit to above,bit of research says 1983,you could have antique gold and mocca brown or olivine green with silver green.You got a choice with having the lighter colour or darker colour top or bottom

I own the xr3i now. The red mk2 escort is a very rotten 4 door which seems to have had a tree fall on the back of the roof, it's good for nothing other than parts I believe the chevette has been bought by a mate who's helping the owner clear the yard. Some other cars have gone too (I know the orion, imp and chrome bumper mk1 fiesta have gone). There's a lot of stuff that I didn't get pics of too curse word was about to ask about that Imp! Don't expect there are any Mk2 transit parts lurking around in the sheds? |

As far as I'm aware the 205's were being sold as a pair for £400
No idea about transit parts, I know he had a few later transits knocking about but didn't see any earlier ones and my mate hasn't mentioned finding any parts off any

I took these pics back in the summer and my memory isn't the best, but I'm fairly certain this one had a full green interior too. I was tempted by it myself but I've got too many projects and not enough time/money as it is  |

 This old girl can be seen near Elephant and Castle Same car I put up last page.... It needs saving!!! Ha, so you did! I had a little look at her on Friday and it's still solid with decent chrome. I bet it's worth a coupe of grand in its current state when you consider how rare decent coupes are. Dumped there in 1994? |

Worst place this one has gone is the front chassis leg area, all the other problem places on it have repair panels readily available. Should be an easy enough fix
