Is this really worth near £18k?

Looks a bit of an old dog, is it really worth that sort of money?

[Ben Purnell]

well maybe not in the long run with putting it back together, but if all solid which you'd really need a good poke to find out, it might suit someone who could do bits over time

[Darrenaf]

most of its their, would probably be a nice car after a lot of time, money and effort, but no its not worth 18K,

It was on there the other week on a different listing

Might look a different thing after a good bath

Saying that though, it'll still be brown

Sorry Ben

[The Radman]

It was on there the other week on a different listing

it was about a month ago, there was a thread on here about it. it looks dog rough and looking at the state of the attempted repairs it'll need plenty of TLC and WILL have hidden surprises. If you could get that for half that amount, and were in the trade with some time to spend on it, it could probably be turned around.

Just had another look at the advert whilst having lunch - that is a mess, check where the fuel regulator is mounted. Looks like it's converted to earlier turbo too, doesn't look like a T4 as per the advert?

It'll want a good amount of time and money put into that - looks more of a breaker to me

"SIDES ARE VERY STRAIGHT" - after 10 pints of Stella maybe

Its getting cheaper

[fordrs2005]

It's got along way still to go

[cossiedavid]

Lol about 12k lower

[Simon T]

yeah and he's corrected the T4 turbo to a T34 now - obviously hasn't got a clue.

My mate went to buy it today and said its terrible. So unless you can get it for 8k I wouldn't waste your time going.
