My smoothed estate

[WiNgNuTz]

Right, I'm not expecting to make any money off this at all tbh, but I've had my fill of this shitheap now, so I'm gauging interest to see if anyone wants the whole thing as a fixer-upper before I sell a couple of bits off it and scrap the rest.

Basically I've seen something else I'm interested in, but at this precise moment in time, I'm not 100% sure I'll be getting it. Fingers crossed though, can't put up with this for much longer.

Looking to sell it as it is, only thing you won't get in the deal is the ABM angels, car will be sold with standard ph3 crystals if it goes as one.

As it looks now:



Engine is currently on just over 68k, but the car spent the 5.5 years before my ownership parked up, only being used on rare occasions.

Tracking is very badly out, resulting in chewing through the inner edge of the front tyres in a month or so, I haven't had the time/motivation to sort it out myself, and every garage in the area say it's too low to track, as they can't (or don't want to) get their equipment on the wheels.

I'm still halfway through smoothing the front end, grill has been done, but bonnet needs welding up and finishing. Bootlid has been smoothed, and the solenoid for the popper has given up recently (last straw really, prompting me to look for something else), so currently have a highly technical piece of wire poked out of the top of the boot trim (on the inside, obviously) that is tied around the solenoid mechanism to pop the boot.

Sailed through it's last MOT with just 1 advisory for an oil leak, which I believe is either the feed or return to the turbo, just misting on boost, but has liberally covered the entire back of the engine in oil.

Bottom engine mount wants attention I think, there is a lot of movement from the engine when coming on/off the power, both top and gearbox mount have been changed. Also has fairly new driveshafts both sides, and a new wishbone on the passenger side, with partner P-bushes both sides.

The car has been used as my daily workhorse/family wagon since I bought it about 18 months ago, so it's not in the tidiest state ever, but nothing a good hoover won't solve. Seats are all in good condition, though far from mint. Drivers bolster has a little wear.

There are other issues, but mostly small niggly things, I've tried to think of the worst bits initially.

Also has cow-print roof lining (that's got to be worth something, surely?! )

I'd probably start with a price of £300 as it stands, but will be very open to offers if someone does want to take the thing as a whole.

As I say, I do drive this daily, and has only actually broken down once, I dare say someone with the space/time/motivation to fix this up could have a half decent 306 estate for their money, I've just had enough of it now though.

Can acquire more pics if wanted, and will confirm asap as to whether it will go up for sale, so for now, feel free to ask questions and/or slate the car as much as you like.
