P659 FRS Black Exclusive at Pease Pottage

I wonder if it's the TCT Exclusive that's recently been advertised on Ebay with a blown HG?

As I remember, the guys are self-employed, and as such are free to make ends meet however they can

That will have more to do with the boss not having to pay Employer NIC's, holiday pay, sick pay etc.

As I remember, the guys are self-employed, and as such are free to make ends meet however they can - hence the widely varying pricing. Impressively organised, though!

Really, that's interesting. How is that meant to work? They always put the money in the till and give me a receipt.

If it was in their interests to sell as many parts as they can individually then it would stand to reason that they should try to sell the part at a lower price than not at all.

Looking @ their website I'd say there staff will be on the books/PAYE, there's even a job vacancy for a SALES COUNTER SUPERVISOR if your interested ?

* Complete sales by entering purchased items into sales/inventory system; obtaining payment; adding purchase to credit account; issuing sales receipts.

Apparently this vehicle is available for spares (Provided its not already been crushed) as it came in as a scrapper (No insurance hold on it) so be quick for any parts !

If its not been crushed, I was told it will be in their 'Bottom Yard' which is only open to the public on a Saturday due to H&S reasons !

I was after the 'Exclusive' badges, but was told I'd have to buy the whole wing or hatchback if I wanted them

Hi John, I was looking for one to put on the hatchback where for some reason Citroen badged up the SX and VSX models for identification as standard (but not the Exclusive models) or possibly two (Then that one would be for a spare), however I'm not too desperate as the ones on the wings are present !

That's a real pity to see a tidy looking Exclusive end it's days like that. It's obviously there for a reason though, maybe the drivers side was damaged?

In my experience "P" reg is the worst XM year for lower body shell rust.
Most of it hidden from view.
Many garages down this way do not weld repair.
Quite a few of those that would like to are prevented by a lease or liability insurance restriction.

Mine is a P, but its pretty good for rust. Which is the best year?
