But must agree bog standard and having a cat c marker its not worth doing would make a nice breaker you up for it trikey lol

Engines been thumped hard, possibly damaged pulleys, bent crank. Subframe may need replacing. The chassis ends will be crumpled which are very difficult to get hold of. I know there are some members looking at this as a doner car to rebuild one of the earlier 385 's.

Low miles but it would cost a fortune to rebuild, fit the extras and still be a write off!

Does make one laugh as that is Cat C then you get another ZT/75 with a broken bumper & headlight & they Cat C that one too.

Shame that as it is one of the last - registered at SMC probably Slough (RX). Probably saw that one when I was over there in 2006.
