The \'Oldschool\' Ebay thread < all ebay finds in here

[steve garbutt]

I think steve may be a little gutted.

It would have been nice to add it to the collection but iv still got the RX3 to work on and the FD with the 20b engine so that will keep me busy till the next one comes along

[RobMatthews]

west cornwall, its exactly 697 miles each way,

I had a guy buy an old hilux off me a couple years back lived 3 miles from john O\'groats im 25 miles from lands end!

[RobMatthews]

steve i did ask a few companys about picking it and wasn\'t hopefull, so im gonna take a mate and we\'ll just do it in \'shifts\' lol
I\'ve got a comfy 530td should do it comfortable enough on 2 1/2 tanks of fuel

well excited hopefully its as he said and only bits are missing are the perishable rubbers.

(i only won it £40 less than my max bid to!)

Well i did ask the guy about the glass and he said its removed but its all there including the windscreen, so i think you got yourself a bargain Rob :Thumbsup!

[RobMatthews]

[Grant Monkhouse]

[RobMatthews]

well i went to get it myself in the end!
left friday night6pm got there sat morning 6am cheeky text to say we were a bit early does he mind meeting us a little earlier than 8am lol

walked up the drive to find the car and a big pile of spares he never mention in the ebay ad!so the car was loaded onto the trailer, boot/back seats/front seats filled with parts bmw boot and back seats filled with spares and parts and left again by 845am, scotland seemed to go on forever trying to get out of it!

I met ian(rotorheid on here) coincedently in a little chef car park on his way to doune hill climb-nice guy genuine petrolhead.

And finally after £360 quid in fuel got back home sat evening at 1130pm

I\'ve not had a chance to go through everything properly yet or even sit in it:-(
but hopefully in less than a week i\'ll get a thread started with lots of questions :-) and more importantly pictures lol

On eBay for 2,800. I think this is what Steve Garbutt used to have, then Carl? Now some one else.

Apologies for if anyone has found this and was wanting to keep it secret. Lol.

Seen it at japfest and looks good, note though a lot/all of the chrome trim is missing, or painted matt black....
