Zanussi IZ161W IZ washing machine

[aquarius8000]

Hi, I've just got a Zanussi IZ161W from a friend who got it from a house clearance. The machine has a few problems, and so, I think I will have to cannibalize it because...

a)The door seal is black and a new one will be £45.
b)The door won't unlock after I ran the drain cycle and you can't start a program.
c)When I ran a fault check thing it came up with E51, Motor Triac.
d)The brushes and motor bearings are completely worn/shot.
e)It's been sat outside for 6 weeks and it's in a bad shape.
f)It stinks horrible
g)It's UGLY!

So I'd like to ask, if anyone can pick it up ASAP, then drop me a message, although I'm away this week so I'll reply Friday evening- email address is in my profile. I will NOT deliver, I don't drive and it's my parents otherwise and they've strictly said it'll be collection. Sorry if that sounds harsh.

I'll post a pic later!

if this is the 1600 model would the drum be any good to get yours working, thats assuming the drum bearings are sound. I remember the price of the bearing kit was upwards of £60 from zannusi/electrolux. I know we could by the bearings seperately but the shaft seal was more substantial than the off the shelf oil seals. Anyway just a thought.
