What a result!!

Dampener here guys....Tim check the fuel pick up/return lines. Did I see on a post way back that on the S2 they go straight into the tank whereas on the S3 (Pic) they have that break flange......? Or was it S1 that went straight in.....

Sender should be same as though.

Yep, this is picture from Cliff. Jaz\'s fuel tank - Series 2 tank pipes go straight in.

It\'s unbelievable what u manage to sniff out on ebay!
Label on ur tank has march 1999,so a very rare find,what did u pay for it,if u don\'t mind?
If u do mind,tell me to sod off!

I paid £89.55 so got a bargain really considering Dave probably had the last S3 tank available from a main dealer in the Uk and paid I think around £170 for it.
The chances of dropping on a genuine nos tank still with the seals and labels in place must be very remote.
I\'d have paid a bit more it too so very pleased at this price.

[syebba]

I think u did well.
3 bidders on it,probably no more left now!
As good a find as Dibs new carb.

I would guess the dealers clearance price at £170/£180 was 50% off original price or thereabouts. So what a bargain.

I wondered who the other bidders were, glad it went to a good home.

Try Kris in Rossendale Ian, the petrol tank hasn\'t been removed yet so chances are the \'sender\' will still be there too
