Flat4 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 You lot are a bad influence! I had no idea such an auction existed until now! Unfortunately / thankfully I'm working or I would have probably joined you and come back with yet another project that I really don't need....

Flat4 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Could some one please fill me in on how much the 2 Mondeos and the Orion sell for today please? Interested in that 4ltr Passat too - had no idea such a thing existed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tadhg Tiogar Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 ....Interested in that 4ltr Passat too - had no idea such a thing existed!Not sure how they managed to stuff the W8 engine in there, but they didn't sell many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drum Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Curious to know what my old silver calibra sells for. Im stuck at work so can someone let me know? The calibra is coming up soon.So far I have bought a range rover and maybe an Oldsmobile. No sign of fellow shiters.

CortinaDave Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 any insight into what sold for what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drum Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I'm not great at keeping a record but fairly sure the calibra got to 700. Don't know if the hammer fell though. The Passat made £3400, '97 820 sterling £1000, 18k miles '99 820 £2000, '94 jag sovereign £600, Yamaha ty80 £675, Capri £4200, probe £825, merc 500sec £1000, minor £750. I might know some others. Less than half made their reserve or were conditionally sold. Why there was an X reg p38 in a classic auction is anyone's guess. Why I bought it is less of a mystery. I might start a thread on it - the fooker is still there as it wouldn't start... Tickman, oldcars, CortinaDave and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CortinaDave Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 700 for the cali seems about right. i did think the estimate was ambitious. i fancied a few including the beige orion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BavarianRetro Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Full of them. There was a B10 with the most gopping interior that only a card carrying Alpina fetishist could possibly have specified new. Edit:- Here it is. oldcars 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tayne Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Replace the wood trim with something black (cubic, carbon fibre, antrachite wood) and I’d be happy with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saabnut Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 The LDV fire van made £450 but was Provisional. Drum - that P38 took my attention as it was very tidy, but the rust in the rear OS sill end and more importantly the complete lack of water in the header tank - pointing towards liner drop - put me off! You need to buy my Super Reliable* P38 for its superb 2.5 Diseasal and make one good* car out of the two! oldcars 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to buy my Super Reliable* P38 for its superb 2.5 Diseasal and make one good* car out of the two! Bugger! Wish I'd found you before buying it. Looks like it will be going straight to the breaking for spares department of drum's shite motors! The engine disabled message was on and was playing dead. Having read some internet wisdom* I was hoping the EKA code could be entered with the key. Sounds like it might need trailered anyway? Goes off to read about liner drop....

drum Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Suspecting problems given saabnut's comment, I filled it with water and let it idle for 25 minutes. Some drips from the water pump pulley made optimistic me hope that explained the lack of water. The temp gauge sat at normal the whole time so insured and taxed and set off. It won't drive more than 2 miles without boiling up. What's the chances it's just the water pump or thermostat that's goosed? loserone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
