Featured Replies

Hi there,

Just bought my self a cheapo 6n as a project for my first car, I paid 350 buffers for it with 5months mot, 3 months tax, 1.4 Cl

The mileage is slightly high, but it has full service history with receipts to prove, ie, cambelt at 40k and 90k, Head Gasket, etc

Scorpion Alarm with remote central locking.

Electric Windows

Electric Mirrors

Central Locking

P.A.S

There are a few issues as expected reflecting on price,

Passenger Window Mechanism Broken

Small bits of surface rust.

Needs a new backbox.

Dont get me wrong i know the bodywork is in a poor condition, but as I'm a panel beater i will be putting it in for a full respray soon.

Since i bought it, i have now got it all prepared for repaint, Smoothing off the boot and installing a boot popper, ensuring there is no rust on sills and rear quarters as i hear that this is pretty common on this model.

Mods I've bought

Wrap around bumpers

6n2 rear lights

Coilovers

Boot popper kit

H.I.D's 6000k

Amber light conversion

Smoothed boot.

Smoothed little grills on the front bumper.

Few other bits that you will work out for your self through out pictures.

This is how i bought the car, in a bad way tbf,
