04. Jan 2010 at 14:19
 
The engine has had the Head Gasket done, Cambelt & Tensioners, Water Pump, Cam Cover Gaskets, New Lifters (all at less than 600 miles ago)

The Gearbox was a reconditioned service exchange gearbox at the cost of £1052.29 and have the paperwork for whoever buys the gearbox

The 4 Elite wheels have Brand New Tyres on that cost me over £200 less than 500 miles ago

It has Black Leather Seats & Doorcards.
Built in Sat Nav
Bose Sound System (800 type)
Everything is for sale on this car.
Lots of parts will be going onto Egay so if your interested please PM for any parts.

Cheers

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

Just to answer a few questions I have been asked.

This car does have the boot spoiler and also the twisty aerial on the roof.

I do have a towbar (witter I think) for an estate although it was not take off this car.

This car is a 3.0 so yes does have 3.0 Cams and sandwich plate, but I have every intention of sell the engine complete as it has had new head gasket, exhaust manifold gaskets, cambelt & tensioners, water pump, cam cover gaskets, spark plugs since I have owned this car. The mileage that everything was changed was 121190. The mileage on the car now is 121877 exactly so, 687 miles the car has done since.

I will be removing the engine and gearbox sometime this week perhaps weekend, taking pictures then listing everything on Egay.

Cheers

Hey, does anyone know if an Elite estate's front bumper will fit Elite Saloon of the same year?

Is your one okay?

Greg

Ps If so stick the Front bumper on Ebay.
