214 SEi Nightfire, 3 door, good cosmetic condition
I have a 3 door 214 Sei in very good cosmetic condition but which seems to suffer from some kind of problem starting in cold weather, once running it seems OK. The ECU was checked and found to be OK.It has had new clutch, gearbox, exhaust, head done and water pump, cam belt over the last 2 or three years.
MOT due in October, taxed till 30 Sept.
£475 ono collected from Sheffield as the gearbox has only just been fitted and the exhaust was fitted this year.
24.9.11 - reduced to £350 to save us re-taxing it, we can re-tax for new owner if required
Colour is Nightfire Red. Service history back to 2006, we bought it from a one owner who retired from driving, has had a few family owners to comply with insurance.
If any interest please pm or email me at mark.wells@mwclimited.co.uk and I will get some photos - I am in Abingdon and the car is in Sheffield!
It is surplus now as the chap using it is buying a newer Astra.
Cheers, Mark

They would - I will get him on the case and see if we can post them tonight/tomorrow.
Correction on the exhaust the back box was done last year (my 220 had a new full one this year - too many cars!)

Hopefully this will work! The pics are not brilliant and it needs a wash, he could probably do better ones at the weekend but they give some idea.

Re: 214 SEi Nightfire, 3 door, good cosmetic condition
Where are you - it can come down to Abingdon (South of Oxford)......................
Re: 214 SEi Nightfire, 3 door, good cosmetic condition
Going for scrap at the end of this week, a shame as the bodywork is pretty much mint as is the interior and I am sure the starting problem is minor to soembody who understands these things..................but there is no room to store it off the road.

Re: 214 SEi Nightfire, 3 door, good cosmetic condition
I really need all the interior from this thing! Assuming it has a black plastics not the light colour
Got any interior pics. Dash board door cards front and all the other plastics
Is there any screw holes from mobile phone holders etc
What's the best price you can do? I could even come strip it myself if you are an abingdon. I just don't really have anywhere for the car.

Re: 214 SEi Nightfire, 3 door, good cosmetic condition
Hi Steve
It is a black interior and pretty mint, 3 door don't forget.
I could get it back to Abingdon for you to strip off what you want so long as we can then get it scrapped after that. The gearbox was a Rover refurbed one bought from a bloke on here and only done 2 or 3 thousand miles if you want that as well. NB - I need the boot badge for my 220 though!
I would want to make sure I ended up with the full srap vale as a minimum so I will get a quote for that tomorrow and we could go from there.
Cheers, Mark

Re: 214 SEi Nightfire, 3 door, good cosmetic condition
I only need the interior. I dont think a r65 1.4 box would take to kindly to my t16 
When could you get it down for me to come and strip?

Re: 214 SEi Nightfire, 3 door, good cosmetic condition
No it would't! I had a 220 box for rebuild but it has gone from my lean to shed................
Logistically it is difficult and I need to be sure I can dispose of what's left first so will get back to you

Re: 214 SEi Nightfire, 3 door, good cosmetic condition
Really sorry Steve but it's not going to be worth my while in train and petrol costs to bring it down here as I will only get about £150 for it - which I can get in Sheffield for no outlay. Am happy for you to collect from Sheffield for that price if you like, tax runs out on 30th but you get a fews days grace I think.
Please let me know by midday tomorrow what you want to do, after that we will have to make arrangements to scrap it.

Re: 214 SEi Nightfire, 3 door, good cosmetic condition
Last call people - £150 collected from Sheffield, if you need a mint interior or pretty much brand new (factory refurbed) 1.4 gearbox this is your chance.

Re: 214 SEi Nightfire, 3 door, good cosmetic condition
I'd happily save this from the scrappers but for space and the ability to get it to Manchester without tax / mot in place as my usual towing guy is rammed atm.
As always with these things its all about the timing.

Re: 214 SEi Nightfire, 3 door, good cosmetic condition
Update:
There is a reprieve until the MOT is due mid Oct as Chris' car is not ready so he has to re-tax this one, it will need to go before the MOT is out - will post the date when I can get it

Re: 214 SEi Nightfire, 3 door, good cosmetic condition
Update - A number of people have responded both from here and the Rover 200 forum but nobody has been able to take it so far. It will be uninsured when Chris get's his new car so it has to go on Friday of this week, either to a buyer or to the scrappy.
Price is £150 which is the scrap value, plus 5 month's licence if required.
I will check here and the R200 forum tomorrow night to see if there was any final interest.
