Technical 16v Tipo 2.0ie anyone interested? Mint recaro interior

My Mum wants this off the drive, its been in the family since new and used to be looked after by me when I lived ta home. Shame to see it go but it needs to be moved, like one of the family really. Anyone interested?

Got any pictures of the interior?

 

[Tipo16vTom]

Balls... I dont have any here, I can get some. The seats are mint though, no tears at all with good bolsters.

Any idea about length of MOT or when all the belts where last changed? Cheers

 

[Tipo16vTom]

I will find out tonight.

 

[Tipo16vTom]

MOT till November, just trying to find out when the belts where done but I do know its not been used much at all since they were done, as they were done when the water pump was being fixed, which I think was at an Italian Car specialist in Wrexham http://www.italia.org.uk/

 

[Tipo16vTom]

The belts were done at 98k for the seconds time in its life as it was in bits due to water pump... The car is still reading 98k.

how much have you got in mind for it?

 

[Tipo16vTom]

Hi Jon, nice looking car you got there. We'd be happy with £500, but make me an offer I would rather it went to someone who knows about them

 

[Tipo16vTom]

Spoke to my Dad lastnight and he said £400

any chance of pics of the recaros?:yum:

 

[jonboy739]

i'll have to see what i can do with money, things are really tight at the moment but i would like to get my hands on it and put it back to its formal glorey. mine looked just like yours when i got it but with a lot of sweat and tears i managed to clean her up well. i paid £400 for mine but the timing belt had snapped so i dropped another engine in. mine is missing the recaros so would be nice to have one with them in. has it got any rust on the arches or anywhere else?

 

[Tipo16vTom]

It has a few bits of rust, but nothing major. There is a tiny bit on the bonnet and some on the rear passenger door where the window channel goes down into it. I restore classic minis so these bits would be easily repaired. If I had the time and space I would genuinely have it for myself and restore it and worry a few subarus.

Im at my folks house on Friday so I will get some pics of the interior.

 

[Tipo16vTom]

Here are some photos of the seats. Pictures arent great as they are off my phone.

 

[jonboy739]

are the front seats solid? as mine squeak and wobble a bit with wear and tear. im still working on getting some money together just about half way now.

 

[Tipo16vTom]

Absolutely solid, my mum is 4'9" and doesnt weigh alot so they have had an easy life

Seats (amd car) look good! My 5 door has Recaros but without the name stitched on them. All my publicity photos and brochures show the same - I wonder if they added this for K plate cars inwards anyone know?

Someone buy the car - it is to good to go to a non-enthusiast!!
