1992 V6sei auto possibly available!
Posted: Wed Mar 01, 2017 7:07 pm
Hi All,
As may be recalled, about eighteen months ago, I acquired a late V6 12v in cobalt blue with a broken box, which is a project and currently sitting happily in my garage! I just wondered if this is something another enthusiast for these great cars might want to take on, partly because I am not sure when I will have the time or resources to carry out the work required.
There is some welding needed to the sill corners and one front wheel arch lower edge, but the bodywork is otherwise is quite good shape, apart from few dents and scratches mainly from being stored. The rear bumper also ideally needs replacement after damage on the corner and I have a decent spare.
I can confirm that the engine now starts and runs well and is very smooth and sweet with only 75K and there is reverse gear at least. The car does need a replacement engine sump plate following earlier damage and a temporary repair that I can supply. I fitted a new starter motor and a set of secondhand Michelin Pilot tyres shortly after acquisition.
Of course, I realize there will be effort and expense to collect (from North Norfolk), but I am only looking for a modest sum to at least partly cover my earlier outlay and the sale would help keep other cars on the road!
As a late model the car does have the full 24v trim, ie. body coloured bumpers and mirrors etc., sports alloy wheels and electronic climate control and wooden bits inside, plus H2 suspension and cruise control!
Please do send me a PM for further details if you wish.
With regards,
Matthew T.
PS. I will post up some further photos tomorrow of the now very clean engine bay!
