Re: project anyone?
Looks like a good starting point for a project. Be interesting to see what the sale price reaches.

It was on eBay recently, he probably bought it and then realised the amount of work.

Oh dear! Viewed it yesterday with a prospective new Syncronaut, as I'm camping just 5 miles away.
Breaking value only. Extensive rust throughout. Last receipted big work is turbo replacement 2006. 6 weeks to MOT. Components missing, disconnected, dripping fluids. Didn't even bother trying to start it! Battery out and flat to top it off. Walk away unless you're CJ like!
