Hi guys, I am looking for a crap/knackered/rusty/crashed(but not too bad) UK registered Mondial (it must NOT have been "scrapped" with the DVLA - ideally on a SORN which is a Statutory Off Road Notification for readers who are not familiar with the UK). In other words cheap and nasty. I need this as soon as possible to further my Mondial projects. I will turn this sad car into a renewed sexy beast, but first of all I need the poor ugly duckling. NitrousFerrari posted in the UK section for me but no response so far: http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=135597 All suggestions will be considered. Thanks for the anticipated help.

Thanks for that suggestion. I am keeping an eye on eBay and regularly checking the usual breakers. However I could do with some advice as to how to check the auctions as this could be a good place to find a car because I am not too bothered about condition. Also if anyone privately hears of a car that matches my needs I would be grateful.
Clive, I will keep an eye out, I often visit auctions etc., what is the price ceiling so I am not looking inn the wrong direction. Are you still in the Far East or back in Blighty, justy so we know how to handle a propective vehicle.
Does the car need to be right-hand drive and located in the UK? If not, a great site to look for cars is www.mobile.de, which should have several available, but you might need to ship it from Germany or drive it home. Good luck, RS6bird
I would appreciate the help. Anything from this upwards: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260056786774&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch-desc.ebay.co.uk%3A80%2Fsearch%2Fsearch.dll%3Fsofocus%3Dbs%26sbrftog%3D1%26catref%3DC6%26from%3DR10%26satitle%3D260056786774%26sacat%3D-1%2526catref%253DC6%26fts%3D2%26sargn%3D-1%2526saslc%253D3%26sadis%3D200%26fpos%3DNr32%2B4hw%26ga10244%3D10425%26ftrt%3D1%26ftrv%3D1%26saprclo%3D%26saprchi%3D%26fsop%3D2%2526fsoo%253D2%26coaction%3Dcompare%26copagenum%3D1%26coentrypage%3Dsearch%26fgtp%3D%26fvi%3D1 In reality I am prepared to consider anything, however, as you know, I am not interested in the bodywork or the interior. It would be a plus if it had running gear but not essential. It must not have been officially scapped because eventually it would return to the UK and with a logbook it is so much cheaper and less hassle to get it back into the country. So up to say 7500GBP for a rusty QV runner would be fair. Alternatively something like this bought with a UK partner (to part the car out leaving me with my bits) would work: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1986-Ferrari-Mondial-3-2i-QV-V8_W0QQitemZ260078207900QQihZ016QQcategoryZ18180QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem I am still in Singapore and plan to be for some time. Shipping is not a problem for me as I seem to constantly have cars floating around somewhere or other. Thanks for the link, that could come in useful for the next one. Unfortunately this particular project needs a UK registered RHD car.
