It all depends on the bulkhead and floor but complete, un-restored GTEs are very rare now.

I wouldn't be surprised to see it go for more than £2k.

Non-sunroof too but looks like it has still needed sills - ust hope they are not skin sills of death.

Yeah that's pushing it. Although it's good for those who already own GTEs if it does go for that.

Hi there people, I am the crazy person who was willing to part with the 2.5k for this car, now I don't ever bid on something I havnt looked round first but first I had an in depth phone call with "Jon" (not the registered keeper) and he assured me it was structurally sound and it just needed a couple of patches, no holes in the floor or bulkhead, well, it has the holes in the floor and I'm sure that when you strip out the sound deadening the bulkhead will have got the rot too. It needs for anyone interested both wings both doors, tailgate lower rear panel, floors repair both inner and outer sills rear lower corner panels not to mention the possible bulkhead, lots of missing and broken trims. Now I'm not saying it's beyond repair but it was far more work than he made out to me and I would put it at about £1700 if I was honest but he's not open to offers, well not that sort.
I arrived to collect the car after borrowing a trailer with the intension of taking it but I found myself questioning things he was saying, and what makes this one worth this sort of money and I had to walk. I know he's going to report me to ebay but, hey go for it because it's not as described and I think he had been clever with the photography in not showing any of the really bad bits. So guys if you fancy a challenge go for it but I've had too much of Jons BS
Oh,and the engine is seized which could be unseized with a bottle of Coke!
