Hi all, My car unfortunantely failed it's MOT as rust has crept toward the important areas.. far from cost effecitve to repair. Sad thing is from behind the wheel nothing apparently has changed. But now i can't legally drive it. It's a 1985 Seat Ibiza, the first one they did, and has the distinction of having a porsche enginered engine, and a gearbox that apparently "never gives up". Most scrap merchants want ME to pay for them to take it away, and it just seems such a waste, i've put an Ad on Loot but another day to wait before everyone can see it. So my question is: does anyone here who reads this (from UK) have any contacts or ideas regarding any organisations or hobbyists, that would be interested in a spritely if not road going little hatchback, for the purpose of banging racing, stock racing, or perhaps lifting out the engine and putting it in some custom project??? I'd be more than happy to see it go on to someone (for free) who may be able to get something good out of it, then to scrap it, even if it's going out in a blaze of glory in a bangers race, after the ~34,000 miles of cheap motoring it's given me... Cheers for reading /any help... Jon

I can help you here! A while ago, I put 'Fast Food Racing' into google, expecting to see my league at hte top of the list, annd lo and behold there's a Fast Food Racing banger team! Dunno if they'll want yours, but they can steer you in the right direction, maybe. http://ffbangerteam.topcities.com/index.html HTH!
