I have decided to sell one of my R4s. UK 1972 K, white, full sunroof, chassis very sound, recent restoration including new wings, tank, minor welding to floor, external respray. Genuine 32K miles. Runs excellently apart from minor hot-idling niggle recently discussed on this forum (go to thread "Carburettor Overheating" - suspect this is a widespread problem not confined to this vehicle), now just about solved. 11 months' T & T (Tax Exempt). £3500 ono. Location, 25 minutes from J8 on M5.
Reason for selling - I need the garage space and the funds would enable me to tackle one of my other restoration "hulks".
Serious enquiries only, via Private Messaging service on this site (please don't reply on the open Forum and please include EMail details with your PM). For obvious reasons I'd prefer to sell it to someone who is familiar with R4s and their peculiarities. Purchaser can also have free of charge whatever he needs from my pile of 845cc spares.
If the car doesn't sell I'll be eBaying it in Spring 2011.

Are the carpets up because the floors are having to be dried out?

Is it still for sale? I am very interested and prepared to travel to have a look (I am living in South Wales).

Alyson you'll have to send the chap a PM as it seems he doesn't answer to any questions posted on here!

Basically joined the site to advertise his car for free, then once he's sold it we'll never see or hear from him again.

I reckon we ought to do as Talkphotography do, make it a 100 post limit before allowing for sale adverts, and monitoring those who suddenly rush upto the 100 post mark just to be able to advertise for free!
 
Eeerm,,, Benchseat (Robert) has been around for a long time on this site and involved in the R4 scene elsewhere. It was he who sold me the Gordini.
 
Oops my apologies, benchseat, I don't know where I got the post count from!
