b1 80 avant- **Has Been Sold**

Need to have a cull of cars

Bought this about 18 months ago and havn't really done anything with it(as per usual),hasnt been on the road since approx 1992,has been dry stored since i got it and i think previously it was under a tarp for a fair while.
It does run if petrol is tipped into the carb,I removed the petrol tank off it to wash out a load of debris but never refitted the tank(currently in boot)

All trims bits from the body are in the back of the car as is the drivers inner door panel

It will require welding to the floor around the drivers feet area and a patch on one sill and i think maybe the boot floor,there maybe more areas that need doing.The tailgate and bonnet both have rust.Drivers side bonnet hinge has become detached from the body,i think the bolt has sheared off.Both front wings were replaced in 1992(receipt was in car) but at least one has signs of rust

From what I understand this is only one of 3 of these that still exist in the UK(one of which was possibly sold abroad recently)

Several people who have seen the car have commented on the number plate 'being valuable'

These pictures are approx 18 months old but nothing has changed,I cant seem to find a picture of the front end and at present the car is up against a wall with 4 dead cars parked behind it.It is the twin headlight model similar to this link but has a bigger bumper from memory

Hi Spink,

This could be just the project i'm looking for, its a lot of work but with so few left it would be a shame to scrap it for parts. I owned a metalic brown one about twenty five years ago so i'm very familar with the model.
You mentioned you may be able to organise delivery, how about to Iver (near Heathrow Airport) and whats your bottom line price,

regards John.
