1999 D8.5 HDi + loads of upgrades

Post by plod »

Had initially to hold on to my 406 whilst doing the plate transfer, then thought just before xmas was a bad time for most

I really want to break the car as it's worth so much more that way however..........

I'm finding the thought of doing that really hard, plus i'm struggling for room.

So

If someone want s to turn up with £500 in cash, then they can take the car away

Spec:
1999 D8.5 406 Saloon in Sherwood Green
17" Fox Alloys with 225/45/17's - 2 new tyres in May 12, and 2 new in May '11
Powerflow Stainless Steel Exhaust off a V6 coupe - no cat, no flexi
Genuine Peugeot Rear Spoiler
All door and bumper trim colour coded to the car
Clear side repeaters
Black Ash door and dash trims + ash tray
Chrome clock rings
Leather steering wheel from a coupe
Custom painted dash
Custom painted door handles
Leather seats from a executive - excellent condition - no rips around switch, and little wear on the bolster
Wiring conversion to power the above
D9 air vents
D9 handbrake button
D9 centre console
Genuine pug floor mats (drivers one quite worn)
Recondition rear calipers last year
Engine remapped to 140bhp, but still returns 40+mpg
New clutch fitted last year at cost of £330

Probably loads of other stuff

Bad bits:
Some rust bubbling through on front n/s wing
Hail storm damage to roof, bonnet, boot and front o/s wing
N/s backplate shot, but good quality replacement included
Starter motor fried

I know it's worth shed loads more in parts, as if I sell engine, gearbox, and weigh the shell in, that got to be approaching £450, exhaust is over £100's worth, so is the leather, the wheels are worth good money, but like I say, I lack room, and it would break my heart to do so.

So as said, first £500 cash secures
It has no plates on it at mo, as it had a private plate, but if someone wants to buy the break and make themselves a tidy profit, then no problem, but if they want to put back on road, then i'll buy some new number plates

Car is located in Hinckley, Leicestershire
Will bump up to start if required.
Car has no rent in the window, but is still MOT'd till May 2013

I reckon if someone has the room and the time, they could make a grand out of the car 8)

Don't know which way round to play it, but either car or parts going on ebay by tomorrow as free listing.

However if enough interest for cash, i'll take £110 on the Powerflow exhaust; £110 for the leather; £150 for the wheels; £50 for the complete wiring conversion; £200 for the engine and box(new clutch last year); £40 for the custom painted dash; £30 for the black ash door trims; £30 for the black ash dash trim, and ashtray, £15 for clock bezel with aluminium rings
