Evening all,

Cor there can't be too many unrestored Mk1s left to find out there, especially the early pre-airflow ventilation type. I wonder how mad the bidding will go for this one??

Despite the colour of the green flash in the photo below, according to the blurb it's a real 'un.

Known this car for over 15 years and it has never moved. Full roll cage, maintained, tyres pumped up, but it has never been for sale.

Reserve set at minimum £20k.

Upon reading the advert I thought the guy selling it comes across very negative, he isn't trying to brag it up rather he would prefer it didn't sell and he would regain interest!?!

Is the reserve set so high that this is just a toe in the water to gauge the cars value???

What I meant was have you read what the seller has added? Quite a lot about Facebook and unsavoury messages.

Looks like he's had a few keyboard warriors giving him stick!
