Doug Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 It does have a very desirable item, that being the magnesium minilite wheels, of course these could be sold to help counter the cost... Surely magnesium after that amount of time will be next to useless. Are they actually magnesium? 'Have you any idea what it's like to have the wind rushing through your hair!'

S47zz Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Minilites ain't standard on an S4 so you'll need to sell 'em and buy the correct wheels. Steering wheel is wrong, and you can't buy one of them anymore. Dash ain't standard. It's a a bitsa. better to buy a complete original car. at £6.5K this is overpriced, no the seller's havin' a laugh. Finally an S4 is a barsteward to rebuild so you've been warned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alextangent Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Driver side front wing is knackered & short of around 1/2 foot, none of them available either. Wiring is spaghetti. Can't put my finger on it, but there's something wrong with that xflow. Did the S4 have the oil filler to the front? No twin carbs on the std 1600 either, was a single Weber 32DFM. Close to scrap I'd say; around 1500? Alex McDonald Loud, louder, loudest... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S47zz Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Seller selling it 'on behalf of a friend' is a dealer who used to own an Indie Lotus garage in Salisbury. Hence the silly price I used to work in Salisbury and all locals wouldn't dream of using that particular Garage, so his rep ain't up to much either. Definitely best to avoid this car, unless you can get it from the owner at the pre-dealer price ~ £1500 as mentioned by AlexT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IKB Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 They had a job trying to sell these when they were NEW 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul jacobs Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 S4zz has a good point about Vincent, nice enough guy, but didn't have the best reputation, when he was in business, hearsay only of course, but no doubt he is OK now 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myles Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 It has had a chassis replacement (with bills) therefore the car can be restored including the chassis without having to replace the chassis. Erm, what? 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 Alcester Racing 7s Ecosse™ 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 Alcester-Racing-Sevens.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
