NEVER DONE OVER THE 200 KPH ON CLOAK AND NEVER DONE A COSWORTH AND WRX THEN TRIPPED OUT THE TOP SAFETY SWITCH ON ECU[WENT TO HONDA TO SET BACK TO FACTORY BUT THEY SAID COULD NOT DO AS IMPORT ???]SO WILL NOT GO OVER 120 MPH NOT THAT I HAVE DONE MORE THAT 65 MPH

 

What? I presume this is telling me the car has a 75mph top speed.
It changed hands fairly quickly though:

2ND OWNER AND ON 108123 KPH

I must have passed at least 3 clones of that horror in Rusholme on Friday night. Between them they had almost as much low glow as curry mile has neon.

 

EDIT

SO I CAN MAKE MY CHOPPER FOR NEXT SUMMER

Bloody hell he ruins bikes too! Good luck with that :shock:

I love it when you see an utterly hopeless project on eBay. Such as this:

Mate, that will NEVER see the road again! YOU have destroyed it!

Did it never occur to him to:

 

a) use a 3 door estate shell as it might be just a tad stronger

 

B) go and buy a P100 if he wanted a Ford pick-up so badly and save a lot of hassle?

I imagine you should be able to pick up replacement panels at any motor factor.

I seem to think there was one in a scrap yard this year or last with a pic posted up on here?
There was- a 6-wheeled version, Milford Cubicle posted it. I think the eBay one does have all its panels and windows though, just not attached to the car.

Forgive my ignorance here - been out the country for too long. What's the procedure for these council garages? Any criteria to be met etc? I'd be well up for one or more. Then I can justify buying something utterly stupid.

 

This is close to Norfolk's best but least friendly chippy. Belong in the Ebay bargains thread probably.

Well I just phoned the guy at the housing association (the council by another "independent" name), and asked them. They sent me a short form, all you do is list what you want to put in ('old car tat') and tick the box saying you won't use it for commercial use or be a pain in the arse, return the form and collect some keys.
