No idea, but I remember seeing it on ebay a while back, I was interested in it but never got my own car sold in time to make a punt for it. #-o

If I remember correctly I don't think it was auctioned, it was up as a classified advert, not 100% on this but I believe he had it on in the region of £5,500 o.no.

Edit: here is the ad for £5k

I nearly bought it, it was on gumtree and I had spoke to the seller a few times, as he was leaving the country he reduced it to £3500 and it sold in days. I was really tempted but it would have been my only car and not very practical, kicking myself now though ](*,)

Dont forget the 2ZZ...an engine conversion is almost obligatory with the Mk3..? :thumleft:

And they're not cheap, either.... :whistle:

You're not wrong there - I was eyeing yours with the V6 for quite some time before it sold (bargain price too :mrgreen: ). Decided in the end that I would prefer keeping my marriage intact over adding a 3rd two seater RWD car to the household :lol:

Car is still taxed, I nearly bought it back for 3k lol. Not seen it since, shame really, as for the red he still has it, can forward you details, he wanted too much for it, car was screwed and neglected.

I owned the blue, sold it, kept in touch the the new owner, he sold it and it vanished, so really don't know who owns it now. Might have even gone abroad.

Got my new toy though :)

Yeah I know you used to own the blue one and has had 2 different owners since but I was talking about the other red monocraft and its whereabouts.

I'm not sure where it ended up tbh but the last i seen , when it was on ebay, it needed quite a bit of work doing to it by the looks of things. So I'd be interested in seeing what condition its in now.
