it would be a good idea to take some jump leads, it sound as if the battery is flat or the starter has packed in. |

I e-mailed the guy who won it last time for £310, he was a mechanic said the guy wouldnt wait until the following sat for him to collect so he relisted it, but when it didnt get anywhere near the 310 from the first time around he pulled the auction and told the other guy he could have it for 310 - meanwhile I'd emailed him and asked why he didnt want it and told him about my £200 valver that actually moved so he wasn't interested!
So, its up for sale again!
The guy sounded really dodgy though when I was interested in it first time around, wouldnt return my calls and said i couldn't view it - something to hide maybe? My guess is engine seized / big ends gone and he's pulled the starter to cover that up. Wouldn't surprise me! |
