I had this in my watch list just out of interest - item 183322288208. Did anyone buy it on here? Seems like a decent price if it's just the gearbox or even to get parts off more than likely.
Did somebody get a good deal on EBay?

Did somebody get a good deal on EBay?
Hi,
I had this in my watch list just out of interest - item 183322288208. Did anyone buy it on here? Seems like a decent price if it's just the gearbox or even to get parts off more than likely.

Sounds about right for one if the box has gone...

Yeah, bit on the high side even.

Yeah add £4k for a gearbox rebuild (about right???) then you are looking at normal money for a reasonable one.
Re: Did somebody get a good deal on EBay?
Well if the rest of it is really tidy and it costs £4K for a fresh box rebuild then you've got a potential bargain car. Is that what a rebuilt gearbox costs these days?
Re: Did somebody get a good deal on EBay?
The figure seems to be between £1600 and 3.5k from reading on the forums
Re: Did somebody get a good deal on EBay?
That's a big if. In my experience, cars like this are on their last gasp in most respects.

I've just read the advert. Even if that car didn't have a gearbox problem I don't think I'd bother going to see it.
