wuvvum Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Doubt its on a V5c. Asked the owner if its rhd (- no point otherwise) & its registration -to see if it is indeed registered.Reckon its a carbon of mine -probably 1965 -so C plate's not valuable.Doesnt look like its moved in years- whereas it would need an inspection to get the plate off..... and you would need to go to them! If it hasindeed been plate raped -the replacements still usefulHe's answered your question on the listing - it is RHD, and the reg plate is 2 numbers and 3 letters.

wuvvum Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 According to DVLA though it isn't registered any more, so you might be OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross_K Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Some way-overpriced tat from eBay Ireland... 1972 MK1 Scrote van: 1986 Honda Prelude. The poor misguided fool didn't think somebody was going to bid on it with a €2K start price, did he? 1977 Mitsubishi Colt Celeste: 1971 Morris van: 1971 DS23: 1971 Triumph Herald: 1993 Seat wheelchair van. Nasty. 1979 MK2 Scrote. Left hand drive and automatic for the masochists among you: 1991 309 1.6 automatic: 1995 Nissan Pulsar X1 (Or Almera to you and me): 1980 MK2 Scrote. Highly unusual in that it's actually an original Irish car and not an import.My Dad had the same model in beige for a while, before he swore never to buy a Ford again.

Mr_Bo11ox Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 What a pork sword cruncher. Is that guy related to the one who lists stuff then pulls it at the last minute and decides to 'banger race' it instead?His advert is strangely reminiscent of that feller.

nigel bickle Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Thanks Wuvvum -I'm not the only one looking at it.Think you're right- they aren't restorers!A trifle disingenuous with his answer about 'registration' -seeing as its not on the system.If its stays low -perhaps- but right now -wth a dodgy back -feels like a lot of unnecessary aggro.See how I feel about it tihs time next week...

Ross_K Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Some Polski-shite for you all next. It's good to know they didn't bring all of their shite to this neck of the woods when they came... 1989 BX 1.6, complete with cack wheeltrims. Bonus points for the 309 with bald tyres in the background. Deliciously shite: 1991 Xm 2.0. My favourite kind of shite: 1990 Wartburg 'Golf', in a rather fetching shade of green: 1986 UAZ 452. Asking price is about £1100: It'd take more than a chick on her hands and knees in a thong to make me buy a Rover 214 (see gallery pics ): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mouseflakes Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Not sure if this link will work or not (or if it does, for how long), but there's a Peugeot 505 Family 2.5 D (non-turbo these I think - a little slug-like perhaps?). Near to me, with test, for £250. Bwahahaha-gain! Reg Bolleaux - is this the same donk as in your 504 pickup? Just how leisurely are they?My truck had a 2.3 version of this engine. It was not quick, but was never a handicap either, certainly could keep up with the traffic no probs. If you buy that, stick it on the bay and you will double your money! It will end up on a boat to the fuggin ivory coast like.Now on the first leg of that journey If the seller will still sell in response to the original ad, that looks like a good buy. Unfortunately I'm embroiled in other dealings at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Bo11ox Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 That Ital val looks utterly horrendous - shiny Dulux magnolia paint, underseal halfway up the body, B-series donk and peg-leg-matic box? They have clearly tried hard to create the most unappealing Marina/Ital variant possible. They will hopefully have removed the stiffer van torsion bars and tele dampers, replacing them with tired 1.3 marina 'dry twig' springs and lever arm gate hinges in order to cement their 'victory' in this field.
