    I'm struggling to find the bits for mine. but I've found another with a heavy rear end shunt going pretty cheap (well, basically as much as the new parts would cost me to fix mine). t has everything I need, bumper, dash, the lot.

    Thing is, I have no where to store it, and I don't know how to get rid of the shell when I've taken off eveything I want?

    it's 1.4 16v too, so I might be tempted to use that too.

    worth a buy and then sort out where to put it later?

    get it and break it within the day, stash the motor and parts and get the shell removed last thing by Hiab (cost me 20 or ther abouts)
    sorted, just a hard days work if you need a lot from it.

    Buy it and use the 1.4 engine. If its a sport it will have 100bhp, rear discs and ABS.

    Phat, how come you need a dash?
    IIRC you have front corner damage?

    yes, it's a sport.

    I need the dash, mine is torn where the airbags have fired, but you're welcome to the old one if it's any use. IF I buy this one.

    My mate has offered to store the car for me. just need to keep and eye on the price and sort out transport.

    Might sell the 1.4 16v to my mate for his wife's polo. or sling it in the derby for a laugh!

    red centres, black outers. I'd send you the link, but then you'd all know where the car is, so I won't.

    I literally have no room at all. I have 5 cars, and one of those is on the street. My neighbours will ring the police if I get any more.

    1.4 16v Derby. I'd buy that for a dollar. Two if it was on Centras.
