£12995
1965 Morris Mini 850 Van. Really good condition and had over £4000 spent on recommissioning about 18 months ago at a local Mini Specialist. It starts runs and drives well and is good to go. It appears it was damaged about 20 years ago and was a CAT B. These days they cannot go back on the road but that wasnt always the case. We have a current V5 issued in 2025 and receipts for all the recent work done. Generally vans in this condition without the marker will be 20k plus. We also have a BHritish Motor Heritage build certificate with the van.

Body - Very solid shell. All body colour underneath. Not sure what works been done on it but all looks proper with no nasty patches or welds. Paintwork is very nice with only a few very minor marks. Small rub through from polishing on raised roof line but overall a vfery presentable van.

Mechanics - Starts runs and drives well. List of work done in early 2025 was:
Strip down fix and reinstall dynamo, Clean fix and adjust control box, Fix wipers, 4 new tyres, new brake shoes and clean and adjust, strip clean and regrease rear ns wheel bearing, adjust exhaust so not hitting subframe
strip front brakes, replace all wheel cylinders, replace steering rack
replace track rod ends, strip all ball joints check and shim, replace bottom arm bushes, replace master cylinder, change oil and filter, adjust valve clearances,
replace engine steady bar bushes, replace fan belt, fit electronic ignition, strip clean and check carb, oil pressure switch, air filter.

Wheels - Original steels which have been refurbished with 4 new tyres.

Very tidy old van. You are welcome to come and see it. We have a ramp so you can look underneath. delivery can be arranged if required. Please ask for a quote

£11995
Advertising for a customer this Astra GTE Mk1. The car itself is a bit of a project which someone has started doing work to and never finished it. More or less everything is with the car. We have some old paperwork and MOTs and part of the V5 so new owner will need to apply. Its showing 62k miles and has had 6 previous owners. It appears the car was last on the road in 2009.

Body - Looks to have had some repairs over the years. Has had sills replaced and evidence of repairs up in corners of inner wings. Looks to have engine bay repainted but really wants done again. Cant se any holes but theres a few edges where it woill need a good clean up with a wire brush and treated. Main floors sections look good. Rear quarter windows not fitted. There is two in the car but they are both for the same side. Paintwork will need redone as part of the project. Good doors boot n bonnet.

Mechanics - Engine is in it but not all wired up and not been ran for a while. .The rest is all standard but untested. Will need going through from front to back as part of the project.

Interior - Seats in the main are good but drivers side needs a small repair on the leather section near the headrest. Dashtop and clocks are god. Door cards are ok. Headlining needs replaced. Kick panels missing

Wheels - Standard Alloys which are decent but will no doubt need up to date tyres fitted.

These cars are getting rare and good examples are touching 25k now. You are welcome to come and see the car. We have a ramp so you can look underneath. Delivery can be arranged if required. Please ask for a quote.

£SOLD
1964 Ford Anglia 1200 Super. The V5 is here and some old receipts for money spent over the years. The car starts runs and drives but doesnt look to have been used in a while so will need a bit of recommissioning.

Body - Solid old shell. Good inner wings, boot floor and pockets. Main floor is solid but has had a couple of period patch repairs over the years. Doesnt look like it needs anything doing. Paintwork is presentable but there is a bit bubbling on front wings, and front panel. Bumpers are nice and straight. Good chrome on sides. Period spotlights fitted.

Mechanics - All standard. Car starts runs and drives. Good engine, gearbox brakes. Clutch works fine but feels a little heavier than normal. Looks like new plugs, lead and cap. Blow from the exhaust at joint with manifold which needs attending to. Not been used for a while so a good checkover would be in orrder but apart from whats listed no obvious major problems.

Interior - All standard super trim by the look of it. Tidy enough inside. good seats, door cards, headlining

Wheels -Standard steels with tyres which look a bit old and would be better being replaced

Please feel free to come and see the car, We have a ramp so you can look underneath.

£24500
1991 Ford Sierra Sapphire Cosworth. This car is a solid useable example which has had a lot of money spent on it over the years. Its running approx 300 bhp and drives very well. It has a CAT D marker against it from 2000. If thats a concern it may not be the one for you. Bear in mind in 2000 the value of this car would have been about 3k so wouldnt take a great deal of damage to categorise it. we have the V5 showing 10 owners, old MoTs, tax discs, receipts for fortunes spent over the years. I have known this car since around 2015.

Body - All solid underneath. Has had work on the front jacking points and rear chassis rails at some point but all solid now. Paintwork is tidy. Rear arches are very good. Few minor marks and age related chips but overall a presentable car. New windscreen recently fitted

Mechanics - 200 block engine which was fully rebuilt a few years back and car has only done 2000 miles since. It has uprated cams, head gasket, rods, pistons, bearings. Head was all redone as well. Fortunes were spent at that time. It has a dump valve fitted, bailey header tamp, samco hoses.. More recent work in the last couple of years is a new fuel pump, tank, starter motor, Collins engine mounts, fan switch, crank sensor, discs and pads all round. Engine is still quiet and pulls well. Alloy radiator fitted, polybushed throughout, poly exhaust rubbers

Interior - Good dash top with no cracks. Couple of aftermarket gauges fitted. Full leather. Front seats have a bit of scuffing and cracking but no rips. Would benefit from a tidy up. Good door cards, headlining and carpet. Front electric windows work but rears dont. Sunroof also is stuck but a replacement sunroof and runners comes with the car.

Wheels - Standard Alloys with recent tyres. Alloys have been refurbished at some point .

Good solid useable entry level car, which has had a lot of money spent on it. . yes you will get tidier examples but they will also be considerably dearer. Please feel free to come and see the car.
