I've owned the vehicle since 1999 and did it up in 2001 and have had it sitting in the shed unregistered since 2005 (I bought a 4wd and spent all my time and money on that instead). I've always intended on getting her back on the road but other priorities have always got in the way! I've now got my first baby on the way and have realised its probably time to let her go to a new home.
To get it back on the road I would expect to spend around 6 to 7 thousand dollars. I have heaps of current photos and close up shots of the body that I'm happy to share with you via Google Drive or Dropbox, just let me know your email address and i'll send you a link and also give you a detailed list of what needs doing and expected costs.
I'm happy to answer any questions, it might take me a day or three to respond if you email me so calling or texting is the better option. NO SWAPS THANKYOU.
Body: Complete 2 pack respray. Colour is a factory Peugeot colour 'Rouge Lucifer Pearl' which is a metallic red with a copper pearl. A full Rare Spares rubber kit was used at the time of respray and all the pinchweld, bailey channel and weather strips were replaced. The panel beater rust proofed it for me at the time. The boot has never had rust and is still rust free. The floor pan is also original and rust free. The only rust is in the drivers door and I have a good replacement rust free door which requires prepping & painting. There is a small dint/paint chip in the roof which was caused when something fell out of the overhead storage racks above the car some years ago. Apart from that the body and paint is in great condition for its age with just the normal stone chips from being driven. Rear bumper is good but the front bumper isn't great. All the plastic lenses have been replaced with new Rare Spares items.
