Lewis, nice looking car.  Looks like a deal paying scrap value, mind you buying a car with no MOT is always a lottery so fingers crossed its ok :angel:

Thanks for the positive responses guys!!!

I pick her up Friday at 12!

The things is I want a name for this car any ideas anyone???

ok how about Ethel.............then you can say you have an anti ethel!

ok i'll get my coat.

Lol I like it Ethel goes with her age too!!

£150!!! bargain mate , looks good condition , those rear arches look solid and rust free (jealous lol ) ...get the power polisher out and she'll look stunning

I must admit there is some rust on the rear passenger side, could do with a new arch tbh.

I've been having a mooch and found a place called beevers they do a lot of classic mini parts was going to give them a call.

I'll get some more pics of this Sat afternoon  ;D

Just checked and this isnt my mates old one. That was D134 OOA 

Lol you sound excited Matt!!! I've pm'd you my address aswell.

Just itching to get it started truthfully, have you guys got any dates for shows I can aim to get Ethel ready????

the v.b.o.a show at billing aquadrome in july is the best show to attend you will get to see some of the other members cars there its a great way to spend a weekend with like minded people who love their mk2 cavs  ;D

Ummm I doubt she'll be ready by then being pretty frank! And I don't think that people will appreciate me turning up in a ford to the vboa show!!! Hehe

She might be ready by next year or almost pvs I'm sure the last time I went it was tail end of August.

Already ordered as much as I can to pretect that loved red interior!

nice motor there, and an utter bargain! Not sure I could live with all that red if I am honest though!

one other thing, those hubcaps dont look original to me and I saw you saying you were going to keep them with the car. They look like MK3 Astra ones.

Those trims on Robbies are the the correct ones Matt ie white not silver also white ones are used on some cabbys.

I got her home today, she really does need to see the better side of a jet wash!

There's a few niggly issues the pipe from the fuel tank needs replacing, but other than that it's just bodywork tbh oh the brakes haven't been touched since 2005 so they need some attention! Lol

Glad to get my hand on her now I'm sure Matt will give all a full report after this weekend!

If neither of my two Cavs make it, I'm going to go in my Micra rather than not at all, so I'm sure you wouldn't be out of place! It's still a great place to meet everyone and maybe get some elusive spares, even if you only do a day trip!

agreed i will more than likely be in a golf so dont worry

Went to see this this afternoon, its in really really good condition!! The interior is immaculate, even down to mint original floor mats, and the original radio. The body is really tidy too. The passenger rear arch and the drivers front wing needs replacing but other that that its very tidy indeed. Had a quick look at the bulkhead and its very clean indeed. Is a real timewarp find. I took a couple of pics that I will upload later on. Very impressed indeed with it  ;D

no excuses for not bringing it to billing then  ;D ;D it should not take more than a couple of weeks to sort out the wheelarch and wing  8) 8)
