Spotted this on ebay, don't know how much of the car he salvaged, but could be a good start for someone looking for a donor and doesn't want an old knacker on the drive for 6 months.
Good luck

Oh yeah, just remembered, the bloody bits were in Essex. So that would have been £70 for the parts, and £100 for diesel. Think I'll stick with what I got :D

Reg would be worth nothing until it was back on the car and MOT'd

Depend's on one's idea of a bargain ;)

£70 for a complete donor kit ( Pinto too ) + V5 on sorn, then £100 -£ 150 on fuel .

That doesn't sound like a bad deal to me bearing in mind you will not have the agro of stripping the donor car ;)

That said, in some cases the bargains are just a tad too far away :(

My daily driver was a bargain !!

3 year old Mazda, cat C write off ..... Paid £1750, worth 6K .... Cost £600 to repair.

Downside was, 22 hour round trip to trailer it home from Essex to Cornwall.

Still driving it almost 10 years later & has been a geat motor :cool:
