Cheers, really appreciate the offer. No response yet, but we will hopefully see over the next few days...

Unfortunately not, didn't refresh fast enough and missed out. Still will be messaging the seller, in case the highest bidder doesn't follow through.

I should really avoid this thread.

That's a shame. I always liked seeing that around Ipswich. I doubt it will happen, but it would be nice if he was able to carry on with it.

It's a Senator, which is even worse in my books. Still one of my favourite car chases in any movie because of the amount of shite in it though. They even managed to get a bug-eye Scorpio in as a police car beforehand, which was a surprise when I first saw it.

That's a shame. It was well put together and packed full of the kind of cars that everyone on here loved; what other magazine would have had a group test with a Rover R8, Mk5 Escort and Renault 19 Chamade just pages away from a Peugeot 405 vs Renault 21 article. You could just tell it was something created by people who were passionate about the cars.

Just caught up with this, nice work with it so far. Would have expected it to be tricky to get NOS wheel trims, so you've done well to find them. Having driven it and been chauffered by PBK a few times I know it is very comfortable and a nice car to drive. Despite being a 75 guy, an early 45 is probably a better bet as an everyday car. You get the same seats, a large boot and a decent amount of wood trim, but without the fragility which you are starting to see with 75s now.

If you phone up a Vauxhall dealer, they should be able to get it within a few seconds, if it is original to the car.

I am scheduled to be working that day, but will try to get it booked off for this year's show. The last two have been brilliant, so I will try to go along to it again.

6 months MOT and only two bids so far on this Maestro van, which appears to have been owned by a shite hero. "Was used Daily for work. Only selling due to ULEZ charge" https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Austin-Rover-Maestro-Van-700-Rare-Petrol/143509906489?hash=item2169db6439:g:EQEAAOSw2kleJH0y

Yes, everyone knows 90s Escorts are shit, but the seats in this Ghia estate more than make up for it in my opinion. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ford-Escort-Classic-Estate-1994-Ghia/223885654752?_trkparms=aid%3D333200%26algo%3DCOMP.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20171012094517%26meid%3D8fc91d71801d47e4add68d8e67bf4135%26pid%3D100008%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D293444737953%26itm%3D223885654752%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2047675&_trksid=p2047675.c100008.m2219

Very low mileage pre-facelift Vectra in Staines.

I won't either, but please keep us updated on the shite going through.

Sounds good and glad things are going along. I am free some weekends this month, so may be able to nip down and help out with getting the stuff out of the car.
