    Tach & central locking related to botched fuse box install?

    Any comp/leakdown numbers?

    Didn't meet reserve at $16k, I think he wants too much money for it.

    Absolutely, but most likely a deal can be done for its fair value. It seems OP has gone silent here and on m5board.

    $20k, I just don't see it with 225k miles on it, he wants too much. People picked out some of the car's faults in the BaT auction, that's not going to change on eBay, unless he gets someone ignorant with a bunch of money to spend.

    The mileage would not be so much of a concern if the head has been rebuilt (cheap insurance) and a fahey crank hub installed. If the car were in 7.5-8/10 shape and had 225k, $25k is not out of the question but that simply is not the case.


    Other issues:

    Minor accident that shows on report

    Incorrectly installed fuse box

    Central Locking intermittent fault

    Tach intermittent fault

    Wiper/Highbeam fault

    Needs suspension work

    Seatbelt receivers cracked

    No trunk carpeting

    Heater fault

    Rear end "flutter" on standing start

    And throttle lag with a cold engine

    Also some minor surface rust.


    That said, if the seller wants to make a realistic deal, Im interested.

    Yep, i wasn't going to type all of that out, but I just can't see it being over $15k in the current condition.
