£13750
Ford Es**rt 1600 Sport. RHD Import from South Africa with all tax and duty paid. UK registration has been applied for. This is a good shell and is very solid but after being repainted its been clobbered back together hastily and needs sorting out. Does start run and drive but needs attention before being used properly.

Body - Export spec 1600 sport shell with similar strengthening on the front end to our RS models. Very solid underneath and all painted bodycolour. No nasty patches. Paintwork up top is perfectly useable but paint has cracked on front corner of bonnet and will need looking at. Evidence of a bit filler in door bottoms and lower quarters . Will make a tidy example after its all been sorted out.

Mechanics - 1600 crossflow engine which starts and runs. Engine sounds ok. Brakes, clutch and gearbox all work but gearstick will need replaced. Front engine crossmember has been bolted on with the wrong bolts but we have ordered a set of group 4 bolts and chassis tubes which will come with the car. It will need a proper good checkover before being used.

Interior - Front Seats fitted with a mish mash of bolts and need a serious scrub. Back seat looks ok. Dashtop has been recovered badly . Carpet is aftermarket and not very good.

Wheels - 4 Spoke Alloys which have been refurbed with good 175/70/13 tyres.

Good shell but needs sorting out, but could make a good example. 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

£35995
Advertising for a customer this lovely VW T1 Splitscreen camper van. Its a Nov 1964 model which was imported to the UK in 1999. Its a German manufactured vehicle and we have a dating letter from VW Group Uk. We have the V5 here and lots of receipts for money spent over the years. Its a very tidy example which is good to go. It would appear to have been restored around 2009.

Body - Underneath looks very good and needs nothing. It has a current MOT and is not hiding under the historic banner. Bodywork looks good. Paintwork is very nice. This model has the barn doors on the side.

Mechanics - Starts runs and drives very well. Engine bay is very clean and looks to have been very well maintained. Good gearbox clutch and brakes. Everything appears to work as it should.

Interior - All the camper equipment looks to have been supplied by Van Wurks. It has the bed, additional seating, cooker, sink, fridge and storage cupboars. Everything is very clean and tidy and looks period.

Wheels - Standard wheels with tidy hubcaps and good tyres.

Lovely example which has had fortunes spent on it. This particular van sold for 46k back in 2018 but prices are back a bit. You are welcome to come and see the van. We have a ramp so you can inspect underneath. Delivery can be arranged if required. Please ask for a quote.

Advertising on behalf of a customer this 1979 Ford Es**rt RS2000. Its an unfinished project, but the work thats been done so far is of a very high standard and it will make a stunner. Its a genuine car which started life black but is now Salmon Pink or Signal Red 80 to be technically correct. All the body and paintwork has been done but the car needs finishing. We have the V5 but not a lot of history. Car had been stored for many years and was last taxed in 1988.

Body - Shell has been completely restored and is rock solid. Panel gaps are really good especially round the nosecone. Paintwork is superb. Will still need the sidestripe applied. Underneath is finished in Dove Grey with the overspray on outer floors. No patching or visible welds. I see lots of these cars and seriously considered keeping this and finishing it as it will make an absolute cracker. Headlights will need refurbed or replaced. Chassis number visible on strut top.

Mechanics - Engine was checked over and bottom end was found to be sound. Cylinder head was overhauled. Has not been run since and will still need piped and wired up. 4 speed gearbox fitted. What you see with the car and in the boot is what comes with it. We do also have an exhaust which is useable but personally I would buy a new one.

Interior - Original seats which are useable but could do with being refurbed. Correct clocks, dashpod and doorcards. Dash untested. Good headlining.

Wheels - Set Of polished Alloys but not a matching date set. Good tyres.

Bit of work still to do but will make a superb example. 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

£24995
2003 Ford Focus RS MK1. This is no 2401 and is a real stunner. Its done 82000 miles but youd be forgiven for thinking its 20k as theres not a mark on it. This one was first registered by Brundall Motor Company in Norwich on 30 Sept 2003. They continued to look after the car until 2012 at 63000 Miles. After that servicing was entrusted to Evans Halshaw Bedford. This covers it up to 70K miles. We have the V5, original handbooks, service book as mentioned, 2 keys, old MOTs and receipts. The private plate does come with the car

Body - This car doesnt have a mark on it. Its superb. Im told the paintwork was redone some time ago and its a superb job. Its really straight and presents as well as any of them. Headlights glass and trim are again immaculate. There is nothing needing doing apart from keeping it polished. Arch lips are spot on. Underneath the car is rock solid. All the suspension components have been waxoyled or similar to keep them good.

Mechanics - Car starts , runs and drives as it should. Scorpion Exhaust fitted, Paddle clutch, silicon hoses. Car was recently gone through mechanically at jamsport, timing belt water pump, full service, brake overhaul. Anything that was needed was done. Scorpion exhaust fitted

Interior - Seats are in very good order as are the doorcards. Steering wheel has been retrimmed and its a very good job. Everything is clean and tidy with no scratches or marks.

Wheels - Again these are spotless with a full set of matching Michelin Pilot Sport tyres. I always say you can tell a lot about an owner by the quality of tyres they put on.

This is a superb example with great history. You are welcome to come and see the car. We have a ramp so you can inspect underneath. Delivery can be arranged if required. Please ask for a quote. Any questions please ask or call us

1989 Ford Fiesta XR2 which has recently been restored. Its a late G registered model which has covered 120000 miles but has been fully restored. It does have a CAT D marker against it from 2001 for osr quarter damaged which has obviously been repaired. If this means its not for you then no worries. Bear in mind though in 2001 this car would have had a value of hundreds of pounds therefore it wouldnt have taken a lot to incur the CAT D. If it didnt have the marker we would be advertising it for significantly more.

Body - Fully restored fairly recently. Any rot cut out and repaired. We are told its had inner and outer wings, inner and outer sills, rear arches, floors and sill lips repaired. Chassis number still intact. Good panel gaps and the paintwork is lovely. Car was fully repainted inside and out. Good bodykit and bumpers. All rubbers are good.

Mechanics - Engine and gearbox are running smoothly. Engine just had a full rebuild and is still running in. Pistons rings replaced, Big end shells replaced. Hydraulic lifters replaced, Head gasket replaced, Cylinder head pressure tested and re-surfaced. New shocks and springs all round, Discs and pads replaced. Rear drums replaced, Flexi Hoses replaced, Wheel bearings replaced, Track rod ends replaced, Ball joints replaced, Front suspension bearings and mounting cups replaced, New borg and beck clutch kit, Original ford jack and wheel key, Gearbox seals replaced, Brand new 28/32 TLDM carburettor with receipt, Upgraded 1 piece exhaust (klarius fd963d), Refurbished manifold.

Interior - Seats are in very good condition and have been professionally repaired using original fabric. Door cards no damage. Carpets no stains but small tear in drivers footwell. Headlining no sagging or stains. Dashboard has small holes in the passenger side from screws. but no splits or cracks.
Switches all working as they should. Gauges all fully functional.

Wheels - Refurbished Alloys with brand new yokohama Tyres all round, spare is brand new dynamo on the same pepperpot.

Lovely example which is ready to be used. Someone else has done all the hard work so you dont have to. You are welcome to come and see the car. We have aramp so you can look underneath. Delivery can be arranged if required. Please ask for a quote.

£11995
1989 Ford Fiesta XR2 in Tasman Blue. Originally registered at Polar Ford Barnsley. We have the original book pack, 7 stamps in the service book up to 76K miles. We have lots of receipts and every old MOT that its had backing up the mileage . Its a very good example thats have some upgrades and is ready to go.

Body - Original XR2 shell. Very solid Had some repairs in 2010 underneath but all looks good and still perfectly solid. Paint is nice and presentable. There are a few odd marks and a couple of minor dings that the local paintless dent removal guy would sort. Paint chip on osr rear quarter. Bodykit and bumpers are all good. Overall a very good looking car for its age in a rare colour.

Mechanics - Engine has a fast road cam and twin 40 webers fitted which have recently been set up. It starts and runs well and ticks over fine. It also has a rear disc conversion on it and Gaz shocks. The car drives well for its age and feels nice and tight.

Interior - Front seats are Recaros which have been recovered in the proper XR2 material, these look great and are probably what Ford should have done. The rest of the interior is standard and in very good order.

Wheels - Original alloys in good order with good Toyo Proxy tyres.

This is a lovely little car which is good to go. Its not a concours show winner but a very tidy useable example. Please feel free 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.

Advertising on behalf of a customer this very solid and original 1961 Hillman Minx. Its only done 14000 miles and the current owner has had it since 2010 using it very little although he did do a couple of car shows this summer and drove it a fair distance to meet us. We have the V5 but not a huge amount of history

Body - Very original old car which has never been welded. Has had a few paint touchups here and there but the rest is original. Really good underneath and needs nothing doing structurally. Yes, the paint could be a bit tidier but it look very original rather than a restored trailer queen.

Mechanics - All completely standard. Starts and runs very well. Good brakes clutch and gearbox. Clutch bite point is a little high but doesnt slip.

Interior - Again all original and in very good order considering its age. Seats have no rips or tears. Good doorcards, headlining and carpet. Dash is all good. Lovely condition inside

Wheels - Original steels and hubcaps. Not sure on the age of the tyres so may need replacing.

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

£5750
1982 Ford Granada Mk2 3.0 GLE 5 Speed Manual. RHD Import from South Africa with all tax and duty paid. Car is now fully UK registered. Good solid old car which starts and runs but will need attention.

Body - Mk2 Granada. Good original inner wings, sills, floors and so on. Underside is solid and original. Bit of corrosion on rear window scuttle which has been touched up badly. Lower front panel is a bit dented and needs looking at. Paintwork is ok but far from perfect and looks a bit worn in places. South African granadas had the ribbed trim on the lower panles which was a factory fit. First one I saw I thought someone had ram raided their equivalent of Halfords.

Mechanics - Car starts and runs. Engine sounds a bit rattly pretty sure its top end but will need attention. Good 5 speed gearbox, clutch and brakes. Will need a good checkover from front to back before being used.

Interior - Good original seats which are very tidy with no rips or tears. Good door cards. Crack in dashtop, good carpet and headlining. Bit of wear on top of vinyl on centre console lid.

Wheels - Granada Steels ( the good ones). Tyres look average at best.

Good starting point for a project as a solid old shell but will need some love. 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.
