chatsharris Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I've always had the horn for these, I think the looks have held up exceptionally well. My last two cars (over nine years!) have both cost exactly £450. Sadly, I'm nowhere near the UK until June and you need it shifted pronto.

Split_Pin Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Very appealing indeed and great description. Mr 320 Touring collected the GSA from Devon and he's in Scotland (as am I) so it is possible, even for a canny Scot! My Mrs is using the Duster for work and as Im off today with my son, I realise how much I need a child-friendly car. The Coupe was a faff on Friday and the 75 is going nowhere soon. Unfortunately thats where my shite purchasing funds went so I'll play the lame skint card. It's probably way too decent to roffle but Id buy some tickets if you did. GLWTS and so on!

CortinaDave Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 This excuse is invalid. The UK is tiny! I've got a Nippa from Liverpool, a Honda from Plymouth and a Toyota from North Shields on my fleet at the moment. The train journey is all part of the fun.I got my Cortina from Saltash in Cornwall and the ZT from Manchester. Bought my old Calibra from RobT in London. I just see travelling as what you have to do if you want something interesting or specific at a good price. All that a local radius on Gumtree with 500 quid will usually get me is a monster mile Focus or Corsa C. At the end of the day its an afternoon of your time to get what you want. The only issue is you are usually buying blind and on a sellers word which can blow up in your face. I travelled to Yorkshire one night to pick up a ZT which turned out to have knackered steering and had 170k on the clock not the 110 the seller told me... but I was backed into a corner as it was 10 at night, and I was working in the morning with no other way to get home. Learned a lesson there. Buying from a shiter at least takes that worry away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yes oui si Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I drove my MGB back to Berwick from Bristol. It has no silencing on the exhaust and a stripped interior. I was deaf by the m6. Jim Bell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaughant Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 There's a brand new one of those in the plant, they wheel it out now and again for events etc. Their a top quality steer, my mate not one for £150 and used it all over Britain until it failed is MOT because sometime had cut the cat out and replaced it with a straight pipe!!! He'd had it probably 8 months at that point, no FTP's, no oil or water used and never serviced. Good motors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil_lihp Posted April 7, 2018 Author Share Posted April 7, 2018 Sold and picked up today by yet another very decent chap off this forum. He's mostly silent on here I think so I will leave him to introduce himself if he wants to but I think the car has gone to a good home. holbeck, egg, RobT and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatharris Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 I'm glad this found a home, it did look lovely and deserved a chance to shine. Hopefully the new owner pipes up and keeps us abreast of updates! Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk Jim Bell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
