Hi all,

I have a green 1995 xm 2litre turbo (in Leeds, West Yorks) that has to go to the scrapyard in the next few days. One of the front suspension struts pushed up through the bonnet. It's at the recovery yard at the moment, but it has to go pretty soon (direct to the crusher unfortunately), or they start charging me for storage. If anyone wants it and can shift it, it's yours (I don't want anything for it, I'd rather see it put to some use than be reduced to a three foot square box). All I'm taking off it is the rear tyres.

Paul,
Leeds.

Very interested, any T&T on it?

Sorry, MOT ran out the day after the strut top gave up.
Was taxed but I'm cashing it in.

Where abouts in Leeds is it?

It's at Naylors garage on Otley Old Road, Cookridge.
They said it would cost £60 to transport it to my home in Otley.

I forgot to mention:

It's an estate
manual box
bodywork - a few dents
has a tow bar

I thought the engine was great....pulled like a train (it's the only one I've had though so nothing to compare it to).
The engine can be started and car can moved but there is obiously very little ground clearance at the front.

Which side has the strut gone through and how much tax was there left on it. I could pay you for that if I take the car on.

It was the right/drivers side strut.
it's taxed until January 31 2008.

OK. I'll give you a definite answer tomorrow, but 99% sure I'll take it on. Just need to arrange transport.

But I will post answer by tomorrow at latest.

Thanks Ken.

Ok.

Sorry, I said it was an estate....It's not, it's a hatchback

Hi Paul,

I've just sent you a PM on this one.
