Default Swapsies on a P reg Granada Scorpio 3Ltr V6 Cosworth Anyone??

as above, got the above car from a friend at a price i couldnt refuse but want something smaller, less juicy. anyone want to swap??

its got full leather/electrics, climate control, electric seats, cruise control, everything really!

perfect for munching motorway miles, or just as a big family car or something....


needs MOT and tax runs out this month....

granted its not the prettiest car in the world from the outside, but the inside is a very nice place to be!

dont think it looks right a 24yr old driving it around though!

Why don't you get it MOT'd?

A car is worth almost £0 unless it's got a ticket.

If for no other reason than to find out what it needs sorting. Better selling point if you know why it's got no MOT. Most buyers would walk away if no MOT or no valid reason for lack of one.

In which case, sort it and get a fresh MOT on it. Great selling point if it's got a 12 month ticket on it. At that age and type of car, many people put the length of the MOT up there with condition of car.

Man, that's bad. I just hope that bloke had his tongue firmly in cheek when he shot, directed and edited that film.

You got it! Time for a change, me thinks. You're the 2nd person to have picked up on it.

Or advertise it in a kit car magazine. It would make quite a nice donor, with that engine.

tis an idea! dont care what happens to it to be honest!

the interior must be worth a few bob too!

seems a waste to have an interior that nice in a car that ugly!

tis an Auto box, dont know if that makes any odds as per a kit car is concerned...
