The 1991 limited edition i saw the other week, i ended up buying it to have
a spare engine and gear box.As 300s are so rare in this park of the UK, i thought it a wise move.
I might even change my mk1 into a 5 speed. The car is in realy good nick for not being on the road
for five years.It even has a sun roof that is not warped. The MOT ran out in 2006 and the sorn
ran out in 2008 so i think it is off the radar.
Cheers Mark.
My wife thinks i am barmy to get another 300 :lol: :lol: :lol:
Sexyness in the background..... looks really clean mind!

Hi Ben.
Thanks for putting the pics up.
The 1.4 engine runs as sweet as a nut and will be a good spare.
I think i will put the five speed gear box into the mk1
My mate has been kind enough to let me store it in his feild
as i have nowhere to put it
Cheers Mark. sm4

Yeah, I think a 5 speed box is a good idea mate. I only did 100 odd miles in the 343 but it definatly needed another gear.
Is your 343 Renix?

Looks a bit of a shame to break that up if I'm honest, surely someone else could sort you with a 5 speed box :)

Hi MCHUDD, so you now own 3 tidy and rare 300's, niiiice one! 340pw
and that LE is lurking real tidy
you could always get a years ticket and make a FAT profit on it to keep the better half sweet,
although try finding another one here :roll: needle, haystack springs to mind.
