This is annoying, this Manta should have sold the next day, i'm sure it's the stigma wrongly attached to 1800's, if this was an exclusive a dealer would be asking twice the price or more.

People seem to think an 1800 is a lesser Manta, but take it from me, owner of an 1800 that there is very little gap in performance between them and GTE Manta's.

If you are looking to tare up the B roads and do track days then perhaps this Manta is not for you but if you want rapid,good handling car that you can enjoy driving now and then and in such good condition it will stand proud at any car show then this is the one, you just can't go wrong for £3000 !!!

correct mantaman with having lots of 1800s I think its a better car when fitted with recaros.

performance is not too far away with an astra gte head and cam its the same as gte.

Its worth a bit more in my opinion. But if there arent any potential buyers out there looking for an 1800 berlinetta, then its chances of shifting are less than that of a GTE, we all know the GTE was a more desireable model ( back in the day, and at present time! )

If i had the cash it would be on my drive. Ive just bought the drive, cant afford another car now :(

Good luck with the sale, I hope it finds a loving home. Its a shame there isnt a rescue centre for unwanted cars. A place where they can live and be loved between owners lol

Cleaned and hand scrubbed down with sponge and cloth . After a good test journey. All I can say is what a talented man Rayman is for working on the car. I thank you so much. It is going to be stored in our garage during the week days and brought to shows and events at weekends. It was a special drive home with her and we're so impressed once we got her on the hydraulic lifts. He done a brilliant job and can't put through enough how good he done with this manta.

Her on the lifts giving it a good clean underneath after the flood on the a55 and back roads and irish roads too (farmers tut tut cow dung).

Oh I belived you. :D It was a sign once you arrived the exact minute we exited the terminal door. I knew then. Its a pity theres not more reconition for more mantas down this stretch of the Island. Its nice to see Escorts and such been restored and revived. But i cant for the life of me understand where all the Mantas A's B's are around here gone, probably to the big place in the sky .
