Title: Found in Ireland
Post by: kev131 on September 28, 2007, 05:03:30 PM
Series 3 Super Diesel found in farmer's back yard - Apparently one owner from new - Looks fairly complete although it is apparently rotten.

I can see the bonnet going to a new home!!  ;)

Wouldn't mind a diesel as I have not got/never owned/only ever seen one before. The one I saw was in my home town when I was still in School. I saw it parked outside school one day, the next time I saw it it was in a local scrapyard. At the time I did not have the money or space for a 131 so it got crushed! This reminds me about the Argenta I saw in another local yard. It was a late model and looked pretty clean. At the time I was a student in Plymouth (I saw it at home in Carlisle when I was back in the holidays). Again no money or space. I really wish I had bought it though!

Hi Dave - The car is indeed for sale - Asking price is ?500 although I believe that the shell is too far gone to save.

A shame if it is terminally rotten. Also at 500 Euro it's too expensive, particularly as it would cost quite a bit to get it to the UK. Thanks for asking though. There is a diesel for sale her with a knackered cylinder head. One good one out of the two?
