evo3000 Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 (edited) Hi shaun,welcome to mantasville ukimho your asking the right money for your manta in relation to the sum of parts/solid shell etc. However there has been no takers yet,which means not everyone agrees with that,you might have to split the parts shell etc to shift it, if the right buyer does not come along. Surprised non of the rally boys have not snapped this one up tbh,would you consider selling the 400r to finance the other one as the 400r is eminately more sellable cough VOLKSDEVIL.

Shaun400r Posted September 12, 2015 Author Share Posted September 12, 2015 I keep thinking about parting with the 400r but always bottle it at the last min I'm sure I'm not the first to be in 2 minds ha ha , i would miss the finger pointing and the random people who knock on the window for a chat I have said in the advert I would sell the shell first then other bits later but would have to be in that order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volksdevil Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Are my ears burning? I do keep looking at the ad on ebay...But I did set my head on buying a car (400R) that's ready to go, but time for available funds is quickly running out with a pending business venture. The shell etc I can see as being ideal for me, but I've promised to hang up my 'Car modifying keys' so to speak, hence wanting something ready for the road/weekend toy. Best of luck with the sale mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun400r Posted September 13, 2015 Author Share Posted September 13, 2015 (edited) Thanks it's been for sale quite a while so I think it will end up stored away till I get the 400r sorted ( need valve stem oil seals engine bay painted as it's currently satin black and some little marks touched up ) I did advertise the 400r but had second thoughts lol Edited September 13, 2015 by Shaun400r Missed a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Abbott Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Hi Sean I looked at your shell when it was at mantasport and it's a very nice one indeed.You do have some very nice parts but as I see it you need someone who is willing to spend thousand of pounds in labour to put it all together and will end up with a car worth about 6k. I would part it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun400r Posted September 13, 2015 Author Share Posted September 13, 2015 Ah Yes I saw the mancona on one of my many trips to see David love the look of it , hopefully someone is coming to view the shell this week 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
