'92 Carlton CDX 2.6 manual

[chaseracer]

The old man's had this from nearly new - J plate ex demo from Skipper of Gloucester - and it's been a good and reliable car for 110,000 miles (a few years back, it took the parentals to the Pyrenees in one hit)

It's got the dual-ram straight-six with the five-speed manual box; it had a new tank last year, but the fuelling is playing up (pump??)

Bodily it's OK, with the usual welding to the rear arches; wheels are BBS-type alloys and the Goodyear NCTs are recent. Many spares - lights, alloys, etc. - will go with the car.

Currently, it's at a local garage which has spent several months failing to fix it Dad is monumentally p!$$ed off, but I've persuaded him that it's too good to scrap and that one of you might have a use for it.

Anyone?

I can pass the details on to a club that might have people interested but if it was mine I'd be putting a brand new fuel pump relay in it (it's hidden above the ECU on driverside kick panel) and checking the earth straps on the inlet manifold but I don't know much about these cars

[Mr_Bo11ox]

Whereabouts is this car?

[dollywobbler]

It'll be Staffs at a guess?

Was just thinking that I could do with a nice, big, cruising machine...

Unfortunately, the financial advisor does not agree with my thinking!

[festerfly]

is it a saloon or an estate?

what sort of money are you thinking?

[chaseracer]

The car's in Malvern, and it's a saloon. It's currently on SORN, with a ticket to April.

Somewhere around £400 seems about right, but offers will be gladly entertained... ;D

Hmm, gotta be honest, a carlton with 1 months ticket and a running problem wouold probably struggle to crack 3 figures on eBay.... too much and too far for me!

Agreed.
