Ronnie Project 11 arrived
19. Aug 2006 at 17:06
 
1999 3.0 MV6 Manual in silver. Everything works, but I am breaking it. Everything available except headlamp washers which are already missing! Doors are rusty at the tops, but everything else is good.

...

...

...


Has Xenons, CCRT700 radio/Cd changer/phone system, MV6 cloth seats, manual gearbox, 17" MV6 Alloys which need a refurb or good clean-up, one brand spanking new tyre, Climate panel, all electric windows, tilting steering, good fog lights, good front bumper, good front wings, good bonnet, carbon fibre door cards and console, hi-rise rear brake light, good discs, good calipers, newish centre exhausts (genuine vx ones)

Engine is as sweet as a nut. I will strip the engine for cams, plenum, throttle bodies and intake ducting, plus all sensors, ancillkiaries UNLESS someone wants the whole engine. Dave drove it back from Peterborough and it drives fine. Gearbox is perfect as is clutch.

Also has Cruise, which is available to MarksDTMCalib first refusal.

Every other bit you can think of for a 3.0 MV6 saloon, so ask away.

I will not give stuff away, but won't rip you off either. Make me an offer for anything by PM. I can only say yes or no.

I will move this to the for sale scetion later tonight.

My daddy said will the cruise control fit his 1998 MV6?

If so, can he have second dibs please?

Wondered why you were breaking? MV6 manaul is normally sought after?

How bad is passenger rear door?

Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine

Would't say that, the pictures on AT hid the rust very well, but cheers  Wink

Seriously though, if its not that bad:

A. The new owner could sort it.
B. Have a go yourself... take all the rust off. Tinist amount of filler to smooth out the bumps, and some colour match spray....

Yup i thought that same as my cdx

Ronnie your (probably deliberatly) under estimating a lot

Fogs will go for £40 - 50

Also its amazing what some people will buy - the odd switch here and there etc

Good Luck

How long do you think it wil take you ?

Fogs are arounf £50 each from dealer, and around £20 - £25 on ebay, so I reckon £15 is a very good price...

OK, Cams SOLD so Engine no longer available as a whole working one.

The car will be totally stripped and crushes within a week.

Every usable part is coming off. Switches, relayts, fuses, screws. The lot.

Be quick if you want anything. I know what everything is worth so no silly offers, but I'm not greedy. Just making a quick buck and end of story.

Fogs - I have two sets, all working. Side indiactor lamps by the bucketful.

Spaeksrs anyone? Speaker covers? Mirror switch? Electric mirrors?

This is the time to name that part and ask......
