  After many, many months, I now have to get rid of my H4i. Having stored it in 
a dry farm building for around 4 years, surrounded by good intentions that came 
to naught, limitations of time, space and ability mean that I have to shift the 
old girl by the end of March. 

  'The Blue Pig' hasn't run for over four years and, even then, only has the 
1.6i Zetec engine, so nothing to set the world on fire. However, she did just 
fine for me as a vehicle for every-day use and covered many thousands of miles 
with rarely a problem apart from a failing battery and a tendency for there to 
be quite a lot of weather on the inside even with the roof up. 

  Although she could be a resurrection project for the right person, I view her 
more as a source of ever-harder-to-come-by spare parts, the automotive 
equivalent of villagers viewing the ruined castle as a stone quarry, used to 
keep another H4 on the road or repair one after an accident. Good points 
include an intact body shell and chassis (dark blue body, rather dulled by 
time; some rust on one front suspension tower, small hole, easily welded; a 
front bumper scraped by low-speed parking manoeuvre)); a gearbox that was good 
on last usage; two full sets of front and rear lights (second set from my old 
MkIII Fiesta); new, unused (but fitted) shock absorbers on the rear; new, 
unused, unfitted shock absorbers for the front (boxed, about 4.5 years old); 
and various other odds and sods. The less good points are the engine (not 
turned in 4.5 years); the interior; the power steering system (all worked when 
last used but leak at one union; one track rod end missing); and the brakes 
(calipers off, requiring overhaul). 

  Anyone interested would need a trailer to cart her off some time in later 
March. She has a V5, an entertaining number-plate (ending 'WTF', which seems 
appropriate) an is SORNed. She is near Derby. As scrap I have an offer of £100 
but I'd hate for her to go back to the Fiesta MkIII mob having evolved into a 
Quantum. 

  Any interest?

  Steve
