Swift parts (lots of photo's)

Hi all ive just broken a 1989 Suzuki Swift GTI. Haylingmini and Atchi have suggested that i see if anyone is interested in the parts i have. I'm not too sure how much any of these parts are worth so most are open to offers.

I would really prefer collection from Leeds but could deliver myself for milage around the west yorkshire area. If you want to arrange a courier i can box/pallet it up for you.

rear dampers

complete dash with dials





(offers)

doors with tinted glass and door cards







PROVISIONALLY SOLD

full set of seat belts



(offers)

Pair of door mirrors

(offers)

Ive tried to describe the items as best i can.

£40 for the front and rear springs??

Will pick up

£15.00 for the skirts aswell?

Thanks,

Ryan

what size are the wheels? what type tyres
I see Mk2 parts but you say its from an 89, what generation was the car, square boxy mk1 shape or Mk2 more rounded version. if its Mk2 Im a lot more interested, in the brakes and wheels etc

cheers,

Ive edited the post to show the wheel size 15 x 6.6 and also the tyres 195/45/15 the tyres are Hancook on 2 iirc but would have to check

The V5 says 1989 on an F not sure on the the mk? this is the car before it was broken if it helps

Hi Paul,

Good to see you here!
So you have started yours now.....

I think you are selling it too cheap!
Your car is mk2 ph1.

Cheers

Paul is putting the engine in his wife's Mini to replace the A series it has at the moment, sacrilege really these people breaking lovely GTI's for their engines

It was an Mot failure sills are non existant under the side skirts boot floor had gone through as was the closing panel around the boot. Its also had a rear shunt at some point in its life which was repaired very good.

Lots of work to put back on the road....too many other things to do as well

Paul

oh well at least its being put to good use anyways would you take 1 million pounds for the seatbelt pads?

i will take the doors off your hands mate

EDIT :

I say blood, I wish these Mini folk would stop parting my beloved Suzuki Swifts, especially for some Austin/Rover rubbish.

bit harsh that.

Unfortunately the best part of a GTI is the engine, the body has a tendency to disintegrate, I am a lover of both the Classic Mini & the GTI. I have 2 Classic Mini's with GTI engines, I also have a Justy which will shortly have a GTI Turbo engine. My son has a Justy with a GTI engine, at least the parts are being put to good use. Also by doing what Paul has done it will keep several other GTI's from the knackers yard. The GTI is a classic that does not have a huge following compared to the Escort for example. So buying certain parts new is just not possible or too expensive. Whilst I agree its disappointing to see GTI's being scrapped, at least all the parts are being put to good use.

do you feel better now Allan?

Not realy I feel so bad about all the used GTI engines I have bought I think I should have gone to the scrap yard to see if I could have found a few Swifts to put the engines in

i tell you what you can put a hayabusa in the back of my swift and that will make up for your sins to suzuki lol has that actually been done in a swift? plus was it the b16a civic engine you used in a mini ?

It was a B16A and I put it in a rebuilt pickup What a waste I wrecked two good cars.
Allan

i hope your joking those engine are brilliant if i didn't have a swift id probably have a vtec civic (like everyone else) and as for a mini pick up you can't really get a much cooler car i remember one of my dads friends having one with a big match box sticker on side and an orange beacon on the top

Ask him about the other Mini's he has in his garage, some may think he is the devil incarnate
