Default 75 tourer with snapped cambelt - anyone from here?

Perhaps a club or former club members car? Judging by all the fancy extras that have been added to the car....

I'd rather pay a bit more and have your Yellow one. All about opinions I wonder if any of our breakers would buy it or consider bit too much? I'm tight and see it as a black and white scrap car, £300 max.

Not sure any trader would, as not enough profit as you say.

But for a 1 off joe blogs doing it..... might be worth stripping.

Not saying I would......Nice colour though LOL

Agreed it's a nice colour and looks well and may pay off as a gamble.

I was paid £600 scrap for an insurance write off A year ago (arranged BY the insurance company, just the drivers door on a '99 2ltr club se with 77,000 miles so seems reasonable.

If you own a 2.5l MOT failure that's beyond repair then a simple engine swap to this one might seem attractive.

Lots of overheads of course (transportation for a start) but I guess the owner isn't expecting to get full price.
