Easypops, well spotted - It has a loaded boot in that bottom pic hence the low stance.

When the boot is empty it rides high & proud like all original VR's..... ;-0

That is excellent, Thanks very much

Thanks for that. I understand without seeing the car it is just a rough guess & that is fine.

Not got many pics at work of the car but the frosty one is from Feb & the other pic from July

The leather is good condition (mint in the back, very good passenger & good with slight wear on the driver seat)

Can I by pass the heater matrix from the engine bay?

Also what would it be worth if I did the matrix / bushes and gave her a fresh MOT?

Morning All,

I have a VR6 with suspected heater matrix failure. I'm considering selling it as it stands but would like your opinions as to what it is worth.

The car has not been in use for 2 months, I start it every couple of weeks, last time I did steam came up from the dashboard, I turned the engine off straight away and noticed fluid dripping down into the footwells. It was silky like coolant which led me to belive it is the heater matrix.

I'm not going to have time to fix it this side of xmas so thinking about selling....

It is a straight car, never been crashed. It took me six months to find and it has never let me down in 8 years!

Totally original, no mods at all.

Good Bits -

M reg Blackberry VR6

Registered 31/12/94

120,000 miles

I'm the 3rd or 4th owner, had it since May 2002 at 80,000 miles

Black Leather interior

Sunroof tilts & slides

Decent service history (not fully stamped since I've had it as my bro services it ((ex VAG tech)) but I have all the reciepts for parts.

Full closure factory fitted alarm

Bad Bits -

Body work is not great, been a daily drivers so plenty of scratches, car park dings etc

Needs 1 x front foglight

Interior fan only works on 3 or 4 & windscreen only! Hot & cold work fine

Passenger seat folds forward intermittently (new bowden cable?)

Suspect it will need rear axle bushes at next MOT (advisory at last MOT, late OCT 2009)

Over to experts.......

Thanks

David
