Only 59k and has been in storage since 1995. It will be interesting to see what it fetches!

So basically there cant be a fault at the manifold end, only the foot well end.

Thanks

Antony

If there was a fault at the manifold end, it wouldn’t be hissing at the footwell end

true, oil would be good but since it will need to be taken apart, I'll go for a new part so I don't have to worry about it for years to come.

It’s a ten-minute job to remove the blower motor, oil the bearings and replace it

Having looked at its MOT history, only some 7,000 miles in the past 12 years, one can see that it has suffered the “usual” E24 problems. Many, probably due to lack of use and of course the high mileage. I can only surmise that it must have had substantial ££££s spent if the owner thinks its worth £1...

The owner first introduced himself and this car here on the forum in 2009..... http://bigcoupe.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=9986&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 As for the absurd figure of £100k, I cannot believe for a moment that he's genuinely looking to acheive that. Presumably that figure is jus...

They’re coming out of the woodwork! A French E24 in Burgundy red. Here’s the proof!

Now a black French M635CSi!

Can’t copy eBay ad as on mobile ‘phone.

For sale as “buy it now” for £100k. Sounds a bit expensive with 153k on the clock, but apparently has been restored a few years ago.
Anybody know the car? Thoughts?

Number 390 is advertised once again on Car and Classic.

https://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C1009059

The price has be adjusted once again by the vendor. This time around it's £56k.

33% uplift of original asking price. Let’s see what happens.

Strewth! Just seen a black French Highline

Black Highline in Arnage G502 TYE.

You could try "Car & Classic"

Sounds like the blower motor going bad. I can have mine on low speed and I get a squeaky sound, turn the speed to high it goes away.

Oil the bearings

There’s one on eBay for c. £29k. Yours looks to be in a similar condition. I know several have made the mid 20’s, so I wouldn’t short-change yourself if I were you. I don’t see why you couldn’t list it for £23-£24k and see what happens. You can always review it at a later date. GLWS

Update - suspension is being checked out by Turner Motorsports. Should have an update any day now. Thanks Brucey for the full in depth response.

What was the result???

Whilst surfing the 'net, I came across this thread from June 2006. Does anybody on this board own this car? I am sure that many of us have often wondered what became of our beloved car from years ago. How about trying to locate some. I had success in tracing my old Lamborghini Espada after selling i...

Not a good idea introducing a potential ignition source to where fuel vapours are likely to be present. You mean like the engine bay? Or the exhaust running right alongside the fuel tank? Or heaven forbid how about when refueling your car at the petrol station. How about when you place the metal no...

This will be interesting!

I find that the hood will generally raise if I push on and release one or both rear corners a few times. It sort of “rattles” it undone.

Now for sale privately with £30k asking price....

Same photos, obviously has not had any work or preparation.......just a massive mark-up. I’d bet a pound to a penny it’s a dealer

Why did you think it was a spoof, Pod?
The price?

Nah

Anybody intending to go this year?

I saw this one, but assumed that it was a spoof listing. Maybe it’s genuine? Has anybody been to see it?

I have a vague memory of #076 being up for sale in the past

Looks like a pretty reasonable motor. Shame about the mileage though.

Nice looking motor!
