I know the guys at this company and they have just got this Red Esprit in. Want's a bit of work but looks good for the money. Speak to Ian or John

Cheap project. I'd be tempted if it was the "new" shape interior......and could guarantee I wouldn't get any complaining noises from SWMBO!

It's Jonathon Edwards old car. It looks fine but it's been rolled and ended up on it's roof. Assessor reckons it needs a new roof section.
Price is way over the top as I was offered this only two weeks ago for £8K.
If someone wants to repair it properly then it's not quite a cheap project. It's been stored outside so interior now has water damage. One or two wheels are buckled, needs oil coolers, radiators, bonnet and all the bumpers/ spoilers. This on top of a new roof section and glass.


Cheers,

How bad do you have to screw up to flip an Esprit?

not as bad as you might think, just a conveniently placed rut or kirb in the road and over you go. Of course it all depends on the attitude the car has at the time, much like any other really.
One chap has done it in the states that i know of and a guy i met put a Countache on its roof doing 30 mph
