Hi All I probably should have posted hear before listing on Ebay - some of you may have seen the car there. If you search posts or have a good memory you'll know that the car, used by my son, was taken off the road in November 2011 needing attention to the cambelt tensioner and CV joints (thanks to Jim H for the diagnosis of the CV joint issue). The car has taken this long to return to life partially due to incapacity on my behalf following a argument between my tin box and an HGV, and other jobs that came out of the woodwork. When I removed the offside wheelarch liner to aid access to the cam belt and pulleys, I found that the powder coating on the "drivetrain cage" had failed under the fibreglass. So cleaning and painting of all the metal work was undertaken including removing the nearside wheelarch liner. Having sorted out the mechanical issues and taken care of the metalwork, I decided I had to do something with the interior. The seats and (MK3) dash were OK, but the carpet was a felt type material. This has been duly replaced with a gell backed proper car carpet and the doorcards tidied up. The response from e bay was dismal to say the least, and I've only got one firm offer. The problem, for me, is that the chaps who's made the offer isn't really interetsed in Quantums.He just seemingly wants a fibreglass car, having owned a Dutton Sierra in his youth, and isalso looking at a Rickman Ranger. I've held off getting the car MOT'd., hoping to arrange use of the buyers insurance to facilitate taking the car in, and (reasonably) confident it would pass, or I'd sort out any failure items. I can see this seems to have put people off somewhat, so I'm looking to arrange insurance cover to allow me to get the MOT pre sale. The car is available with or without the hardtop (which got more enquiry e mails than the car, and was sold for £275 until transport issues kiboshed the sale), and I'm looking for a genuine enthusiast rather than let it go to someone I don't trust to look after her.The original ad should hopefully still be viewable (item 251284478719). It's been looked after and the mechanicals and interior sorted, with the body showing it's age (looks good from 3-4 metres!) and body/paint just isn't my area. Really needs to go soon, and I'd really rather it went to a club member than sierra man!
