Small update, unfortunately not a lot has been done since I last posted. The car has all its rear suspension subframe etc removed and is on a set of stands. However my parents have decided against getting it back on the road now and have asked if I want it for £200.
Currently I'm considering it myself as the previous owner had the clutch and belts done. Currently has around 115k miles on the clock but with new rear lower arms and bushes, springs and dampers front arms and drop links and new brake pads and discs and shoes and welding on the sills at the rear and a full service and new tyres all around and new keys ( still have no keys as the only key has been lost). I'm trying to decide whether it's worth it or not. It is a 2001 pre project drive Connie V6 manual. Bodywork isn't too bad other than the odd scratch and the welding which we can sort ourselves..
If we did buy it, we would keep it. But we and the wife are trying to save for a deposit for our first house..
