Ti Sud or Sprint wanted.

[KevJTD]

As the title says, a Sprint or Ti Sud is wanted. Or at least a 3 door Sud.
No, not for me! A friend has asked me if there's any for sale so here I am, asking.
We know the prices have skyrocketed but he has a budget of around £7k which not that long ago would have bought the best, unfortunately now it will be one that isn't quite a minter which he accepts.
So has anyone got either that they have been thinking of parting with?
His number is 07960 590830.
Near me in Lincolnshire but as ever from this corner of the country, willing to travel!

Kev. Does it have to be a Ti ?

[KevJTD]

He'd rather a Ti Lou, but doesn't want anything 4 door.
What've you got in mind?

[alfadave]

Tell him to engage brain and buy a 33.

Like the one on the AROC website for £500.........or offers!

Just looked at that, think he's more after something driveable!

He's not into 33's either for some reason.

[alfadave]

You can charge him the other £6500 to make it driveable!

[KevJTD]

No, I've retired.
Dedra on the go now, may do the Y10 GTie, doubt I'll do the Flavia coupe.
That's me done.
Too worn out now, all that running around has caught up with me.

[LooLooSud33Spider]

Shame about the Flavia . I could still be tempted as I’ve only got 2 big restos on at the moment

[Kegsti66]

Oh Kev, sorry to hear you are not going to do the Flavia coupe'.
That was one I was keen to see done, probably because I didn't know that model.

[KevJTD]

never say never, as they say.
plans change.
just as things are at the moment i can't see it, no plans to sell it though so you never can tell

[Veesix75]

There’s what seems like a nice green sud ti on eBay, over budget but you never know.

Apologies if it’s owned by a forum member, but could have cleaned the bird sh!t off the drivers seat before taking pics and putting up for 10k........especially as it does look very nice overall.

There’s a 4 door on eBay for 20k......

[LooLooSud33Spider]

I saw that green Ti its also got the wrong engine aswell. It’s got a Hydraulic valve engine probably a 1.7. Also I’m not sure about the seats

[alfadave]

82 TiX just come on Car & Classic for £7k in Reading?

[KevJTD]

Thanks for looking out for cars guys, he has actually bought an S3 Sprint QV which is in decent condition, an ex Malta car so is very good underneath being salt free so still has all its' original jacking points, which don't need renewing!
Has some rust on the rear quarters under the window, as though the window winder buckets have become clogged and rotted out which has led to the rust transferring to the outer skin, that's my theory anyway without stripping down.

[junior]

WHAT! You haven't stripped , fabricated, welded and painted yet !

I thought he was a pal, your loosing yer touch Kev.

I am sure listening to that kind of music is not helping.......Or did it used to up the work pace.

Like driving to Meatloaf. Never a wise thing too do.

[KevJTD]

Had a little ride in the Sprint today, drives very nicely indeed. Usual 2nd gear issues aside, it's a great drive, engine pulls nice and strong.
Amazing condition interior..

Anyone from Malta know of the car? Was imported 5 or 6 years ago apparently, it'd be nice to have some history of the car.

[rsfruitbat]

We have a couple of contacts in Malta.
Any idea what the Maltese registration was and where abouts it might have come from on the islands?

[KevJTD]

I think it's been through several owners but I'll try and find out any details
