Argh i just bought this on ebay
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...me=STRK:MEWN:IT
reading the description, i presumed that it was spares repair has it has no mot, which says its because it needs welding on boot/sils. I bid as i only want the engine anyway. It doesnt run! Hes just told me now that ive won in an emial :( Going to offer to relist it for him and pay myself.

Even worse, it turns out its a 1litre, i need a 1.3! Argh!

Anyone else want to buy this? It cost him ?21 to list it he says, which he said i can pay him for the listing fee. Poor guy tho, hes hardly made any profit, and paid ?185 on the car just before taking it off the road. Anyone know how to bypass the imobiliser on these? If i find out, and it starts, ill buy it as he said thats the only thing wrong with it. Might aswell buy it for the ?7 extra than relisting it!
