My G must go
I've not been very well of late and it really is time for my G to go. It's a '91 (two seater) GES with a very good LPG system. Plenty of info and pictures on here if anybody seriously interested. It needs a wee bit cosmetic attention but it's straight & sound low mileage (approx 87K) wagon. With a TT kit I'd be looking for around 12K unless folks think that's way off beam. It's had a shed load of work done on it to get it to the where it is. Any seriously interested parties can pm me and we can talk. Please please please no tyre kickers, my health is not that great. Thanks, Ian
Very sorry to hear that Ian.
Did you end up having the TT kit fitted? If so how did it work out?
That's a big shame Mr A....
Hope things improve in the future
All the best
Gav 
Thanks Gav.
Sorry to hear the news Ian, but I have to agree, the G is hard work compared to some of the latest automotive offerings, take care of yourself
I really don't have the energy or health to cope with a private sale, so I'll be putting my G into an auction soon unless anyone pops out of the wood work before then and wants to buy it. Anyone recommend best place to auction?
Also have a TT kit surplus to requirement.
sorry to hear of your failing fitness
I went to Kings Lynn last year and bought a tvr on behalf of my brother
very impressed with the stock and prices achieved
Thanks, yes I was looking at Anglia Car Auctions. They also pick up which would be good for me.
Here's a bit more info if anyone is interested. Not exhaustive:

About three years ago:
New blower about three years ago
New water pump
MB HT Cables all replaced
Head skimmed
Steering renovated
All brakes overhauled & new mesh pipes
LPG Upgraded when I bought it, runs well.
Under sealed waxolyed iirc
Bit of rust around rear offside parking light
Generally a wee bit of tidying up needs doing, nothing major
Mot renews 5th April
There's probably other stuff I've forgotten
£9.2K is a fair price I think for a quick painless sale, I think it’ll fetch a wee bit more than that at auction.
If anyone wants any specific information or wants to have a look get in touch. But please, no cyber tyre-kickers, I've already had a few and in my state of health I don't really have the time to waste.
It’s a good solid G that runs well, my second ever favourite car. My favourite was my SL60.
Contact if your seriously interested, I’m just outside Oundle (10miles south of P’boro)

It was a bit of a disaster. The guy who was to fit it had the wagon for the best art of three months and didn't even start. There's not that many I'd trust doing it but he got very very busy and just couldn't fit it in. I knew there was always a chance of that, but there you go.......I shall really miss my G, but the reality is I not much able to get out and about any more and even getting into it is a bit of a struggle. Jet powered wheelchair next I think !!!!!!
