I have decided i really need to sort myself out and sell anything that i dont use and i want a quick sale if possible.

http://www.edition38.com/forums/index.php?...amp;hl=1341+g40

the thread above shows the car and the spec.

the only difference is that the car now has the original front seats, steering wheel and gear knob other than that it will be as it was.

the car is currently out of mot and is sorn, but i will put a new mot on it in the next week or so so it will have a nice fresh 12months on it.

the car has only done 8000miles max since the engine and alot of other bits were replace with a no expence spared rebuild. it cost me 9k as it stands.

the bad bits.

the front end is stone chipped and the n/s rear arch needs a bit of paint where its bubbled from the wheel rubbing the arch when it used to have the 20mm spacers on the rear.

also the gearbox is fully functional and dosent grind, out of sheer peace of mind it could do with a rebuild although not urgent.

I'm willing to answer any questions.

I'm asking £3750 to start with 12months mot but I'm open to offers as i want a quick sale and i may be listning to deals without wheels etc.

Love this car, But I cannot stretch to that, tho its probably worth something close to that..:(

Shame I guess you wouldn't want a p/x, Mk1 Golf?

sorry no p/x as i just need the money although i am open to offers especially if its a nice simple cash sale

cheers

In 2006 you said the gearbox is like 'stirring porridge' and now you recommend a rebuild, whats going on there?!

I assume he means that the gear change was sloppy! And now the problems progressed.

the linkage had come loose on the shifter input so it was pinched up and was sorted, but like i have said i would reccomend a rebuild as its the only thing it hasnt had.

i hope that clears that up

Do you still have the G40 for sale? If so let me know. Also where abouts are you located?
