Richard Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Look at this utterly cretinous vehicle. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HONDA-PRELUDE-2-2-VTEC-AUTO-PROJECT-RARE-H22A-FAST_W0QQitemZ270481836345I could be wrong, I don't speak moron, but I think he's saying all the pictures except the last one show what the car used to look like. He wants more than 63 watchers. I've done my bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Station Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 this is 'ratlook' with genuine builders truck 'patina', it displays 'rake' and it has literally been 'slammed to the deck' at the front so it must be a mega bargain at £50. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-1600-CADDY-PICKUP-PROJECT-WHITE_W0QQitemZ220502404490Five bids so far at £51, what a heap, it's knackered!

Mash Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 I love it when you see an utterly hopeless project on eBay. Such as this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/escort-rs-turbo-xr3i-mk4-pickup-project_W0QQitemZ110453009074 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 go and buy a P100 if he wanted a Ford pick-up so badly and save a lot of hassle?

Mr_Bo11ox Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 GR8 for filling with radio gear and parking outside the police HQ!!!

brammy777 Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Sadly i cant buy that talbot due to me living on a high street where theres no parking facilities for me, so i cant put it on sorn or anything.Oh well, im sure when i have the money to get some storage i will be able to get something!

pogweasel Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 £6.50 a week for a council garage here.... can't imagine it being hugely more wherever you are. Next excuse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 When I applied for a council lock up I got one within the week, it's not like applying for a council house (applied in 1991, still waiting). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brammy777 Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 you have a point pog, haha, well that gives me no excuses now, ill enquire asap.Probably no more than a tenner here, it may be posh where i live but basingstoke is dog rough in places, so heres hoping.That talbot will be gone by then.

dollywobbler Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 My council garage in Brum was free. They were chuffing useless but eventally I managed to get one. Then they seemed to lose all my address details for it, so they never charged me. I did get an unfriendly sticker on the garage one day months later, so vacated it...

r.welfare Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Brammy, you could get a garage in Black Dam (not the worst area of Basingstoke by a long shot) for £35 a month, get on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wuvvum Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 £250 is seriously tempting money for that Talbot. If I hadn't just bought the Alpine I'd be making the trip to The Bunker I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChinaTom Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 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. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1985-MADZA-626-2- ... 27acddb330 Anyone here win this?http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NISSAN-BLUEBIRD-1 ... 2a025a7d47 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any criteria to be met etc? I'd be well up for one or more. Then I can justify buying something utterly stupid. 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.
