HimBigChief's 406 Breaking - Definately this time!

[HimBigChief]

With the whole saga of the immobiliser, and the fact that I'm now an Audi driver, I'm going to break my 406 pictured below. The car is pretty much mint, save for a few marks here and there, I will mention these when selling. I also have a few other spares and bits and pieces which I have collected over the couple of years of 406 ownership which I am thinking of selling. I have put a list below of bits and pieces, although there will be more and anything anyone wants they can ask for. All prices are negotiable and plus P&P or collection of course. All bits will be located in rural Northumberland, NE48 if you fancy a nice country drive.

Engine is back together and turning over nicely but not starting up due to the immobiliser issue hence I can't guarantee the engine after my rebuild. All other engine bits and pieces in good working order as appears to be the top end.

Such a shame as I was just getting the car to where I wanted it , but what with the cambelt and immobiliser issues, a new windscreen, MOT due next week it's just not worth me throwing more money at the car and as I've already got a 309 I'm working on, This is just another distraction that won't get done. Plus I've got a quattro for daily duties, looks a mess but runs well enough. Anyway, my loss is your gain, so pick what you want and if what you're after isn't on the list, just reply on here or drop me a PM and we can discuss more.

Cheers

I want someone to buy your whole car as a fixer-upper. If I had some mechanical skills, I might have done it myself - but I don't. It's too good to break up.

[omega]

if you will post and do me a good price il have the light protetors and wind deflectores please

[HimBigChief]

Cheers Highlander, it's been a tough decision, hence why it's taken me so long to make!

Omega, I have PM'd you.

[plod]

I knew someone would beat me to it

[406loon]

If the parcel shelf is a D9 one I will take it.

[HimBigChief]

D8 parcel shelf, it does have the cubby hole for the first aid kit and also comes with the rear window blind.

I may get the whole brakes pads and disks (and handbrake calipers if in decent shape) if:
a- they fit later 2001 D9 2.2HDi
b- shipping isn't terrible

Does the green stuff last longer or less than stock Peugeot pads?

[HimBigChief]

I honestly couldn't tell you whether they'd for the later 2.2HDi, what I can say is that they are the 288mm discs.

I also can't really comment on wear speeds but from the Green Stuff pads I've had in the past, they seem to last a similar length of time, also they produce a lot less brake dust so your wheels look cleaner for longer.

I've got a feeling postage is going to be quite a bit to Italy I'm afraid. I will have a look into it tomorrow for you.

If shipping on the disks is too much may just get the pads only, they should be light enough?
Also what brand are disks?
I'll have a look at SB if you can PM me your VIN number or at least your car details.
If you want to have a look I can send you my VIN, as you prefer.

[HimBigChief]

TBH, the price of new disks in your country will probably be a similar price as the postage cost as they are bloody heavy, and the disks are nothing fancy. They are also just the standard plain GSF type disks IIRC. I've just remembered I've also got a set of brand new boxed Goodridge braided brake hoses available too.

I've also got a set of brand new boxed Goodridge braided brake hoses available too.

How much would you want for those?

[HimBigChief]

Say £25 posted?

Well, only the pads then? how much for shipping?

[Pilch]

D9 Vents!

Also you did say you had a window/mirror switch on the drivers side...

Any idea's on final price?
