Going on eBay tonight, and yes near Plymouth.

I haven't managed to take any photos of late, but have just been looking for a few.. Door rotted out welded a plate on, but couldn't find any hardener for the filler at work, so just gunked it up with silicone.

I wil try and get some photos of it tomorrow. It isn't that bad and could be put back on the road with a little TLC.

Even in a banged up and abused condition?

Thanks, I didn't mean to break any rules, I would rather the car went to someone who could maybe restore it or get it running again.. instead of sending it to the scrap yard. By the way just to make it clear, the photos of the car are when i first owned it... Since then it has been damaged. Both wings are dented, off side headlight is cracked, one or two of the doors has a battle mark on from when my mate rammed me. Also has a rear tow bar, front bumper is just drilled and bolted on. The bottom of the gear box has taken a shaving from green laning. The dash board has a tear in it from when i took it out, the speedo cable needs to be put back in the dials. The boot is stickered up. Had a new water pump when i owned it and a few coil packs.

I wouldn't even want a couple £100 for it to be honest.. A little over scrap value, i will get some more photos of its sorry condition.

That was when i've first got it.. to say i abused it is an understatement, the bonnet was painted in chalkboard black paint.. The arches have taken a battering, i've bolted the front bumper on with m8 bolts (strong as hell btw) off side headlight is cracked. The engine runs but has a problem cuts out now and again then won't start. Also ran a health 67bhp (bang on standard on the rollers) Hope i'm not breaking any rules by posting this.. But i just need to get wrid of it as my boss is getting annoyed with too many of my cars being parked at work.

I have a M reg Skoda Favorit LXie Plus has been off the road for a couple of years and sat around, in a bit of a sorry state, but still in original condition. Does anyone know if people are after these? Or anyone would like to take it off my hands, or should i just send it to the scrap yard?

^ Was nearly but a phone call later and £10 my mate pulled me out in his Land Rover. He was suprised how far i had gotten as he had seen Land Rovers struggling to get along where i fell off the side of the road!

Crank sensor i got was the wrong flipping one, and they can't find another there system, so told me to go dealer. no thank you.. Old and new.. it was too long. Original..

Brilliantly!

I'll go for the crank sensor as one final hope. Just don't understand why it only does it now and again tho and mainly when the engines hot? As surely it'll be reading the same all the time as the fly wheel spins?

Well tonight i think it has finally given up.. it cut out as soon as i left work which was un usual.. then again not long after and again in total 4 times and would take 5 - 10 minutes to start again.. battery was basically dead flat but then it sparked into life.. Think its time to send it to heaven.
