is there anything that could be an issue with the mot and does it currently have any mot, ie can it be driven
It's kinda black with a tint of paprika chucked in. The MoT ran out in July and I don't think there'll be any issues getting one once the steering disc is fitted, because they all wobble being made of rubber, but MoT places I've been to have failed them for it before. If you buy it without MoT that's your gamble, which is why I'd knock 200 quid off to offset anything that's required. I'd like a quick sale to save me the hassle, but on the other hand I wouldn't mind running it a bit in case there are any teething problems to iron out.
to be honest, i would rather u ran it in and did the mot. more piece of mind. however if it looks like someone will buy it ill prob just have it lol. but i would prefer the mot
Cheers Sammy. I'm back now after a spot of surfing and rock climbing and have truckloads of car stuff to do. This car is a priority, along with helping to get Bruno's car working again, and sorting a mate's S14 out. I'll try and get the MoT sorted ASAP, but would much prefer selling as is to save me time. Ollie, I'll just buy a steering disc off DW, but cheers for the offer.
Steering disc now ordered, so will hopefully go for the MoT this week sometime. Just as I was typing this, it arrived at the door. Now THAT is fast service . Thanks Mel Off to work later to fit it then Just need Ares and Ben to sort Peter's rear coilovers out so I can get the remaining suspension off him and drop the bugger to the deck. Damn 4X4 ride height
Steering spacer now on, and front suspension lowered. Just waiting on rears now. Mileage is 97k, MoTs to prove. Bonnet and boot are now white again. Should be in for MoT this week
Around £1900 mate. The car is now MoT'd, so I can put on the HKS filter and handbrake drift button. It currently has a shabby Sparco Evo seat on sliding rail, but is fairly high. I'm 5'10" and am a bit cramped for headroom when wearing a lid in this setup. Ideally the car needs a performance exhaust and Walbro pump to match the stage 1 chip (std ECU also provided), filter, boost gauge and Bren device (not yet fitted). It has had new plugs and fuel filter this week, and now I'm just waiting for the rear shocks with lowered springs. If it's sold before they are available, I'll drop the price a little and still give them when/if they arrive.
Bit of an update. I'll give it a bit longer and then it's on Ebay. 1989 F Reg 97K miles MoT til September 2007 Taxed til end of October.

Dunno Doug, hadn't considered it. You know someone interested? Stormos-they are 5 stud, otherwise they'd have been on the car
