Re: Wanted 480
I'd sort of agree with the S and 1.7 thing. Unfortunately the 1.7 started out quite nippy (I love the few early 1.7 I've had) but they got slower and slower as time went on-- the catalyser one being the slowest. This is why they changed to 2.0 later in the car's life, to get the power back up (and ...

Re: Wanted 480
I think if you settled for a 1.7 or an S, you would probably regret it. Your budget should definitely get you a good 2litre ES at least, so worth waiting for the right one to come up, unless you need wheels in a hurry. That's what I've been thinking.....but there don't seem to come up that regularl...

Re: Wanted 480
Yeah I look daily at cars and classic
The red celebration on there looks great but like you say £4000 is too much, I did think today of offering a him half the asking price and he can bear me in mind......
like you say the Green GT is cheap but maybe too many issues???

Re: Wanted 480
Hi all thanks for this, It does look tidy (apart from the add-ons) but I want a manual. I've been looking for a while now and not many come up sadly! Want do people think of these https://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C1033272 - This one obviously has a pop-up headlight problem and is 1.7 - I've read ...

Wanted 480
Hi I'm looking to get a late 480 2.0 hopefully <£2500 to run as a daily car. I have never really worked on cars but I'm capable with tools, though I don't really want my head under a bonnet every weekend. Do you think this is a realistic proposition and does anyone have anything for sale? Cheers Nigel
