  1. That's far too woke for me @Asimo. Do you have anything less woke?
  2. My last one was £169 near Swindon. A diesel CL estate in dragon green. It was looser than a wizard's sleeve. I called the owner up 15 mins after purchase and asked him if reverse worked as I couldn't engage it. He said of course, I said thanks and hung up. In my 3 months of ownership I never once managed to engage reverse
  3. Expensive but I saw this at the train station a few weeks back and it's a total babe https://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/mk3-golf-wagon/1467000704
  4. Classic insurance 70mpg Cheap parts / simple mechanically (except the rear axle) Scotland ULEZ exempt
  5. Looks like you've hung a prosthetic dong from your rear view mirror. Of course, that's what all Astra owners did back in the early days
  6. Live, laugh, scrap Just bought this. Think I'll be ~£500 deep after I get the bill for fixing and MOTing. It's a pd100 with absolutely none of the options but all of the miles. I keep putting my elbow down into thin air expecting an armrest. I've yet to find the cupholder as well. Drives well. Has 2 matching, new, winter tyres on the front. 12 months MOT with a clean pass I believe. Not exciting for anyone but I fucking love a Passat. This should make an excellent winter beater and keep the Lexus out of the salt. I'll likely be driving it to 200miles and sleeping in it on Wednesday. The madman @Jimbob McGregor took the V90 away and drove it through the night. Sadly it sounds beyond economical repair so the future's not looking great. Goodnight shit prince.
  7. Found it! Good shout on the Gilera wheels. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1445397839357199
  8. I saw this on a FB marketplace ad and I'm absolutely obsessed. What is this and wtf are the wheels? Was it a scam at £3995? I can no longer find the ad
  9. Shit private plate. It's a 94 Merc and the DVLA have it down as such
  10. Winter beater Has plenty of MOT Electric windows Sensible Poverty spec
  11. Can you give us some clues please mr Kiltox? Does it have MOT? How many NCAPs has it got? Keep fit windows?
  12. I guess that it's an Ami with front and rear Kubota diesels
  13. Chronically underrated thread, really enjoying reading it. What the hell do you do that leads to 5 redundancies in 2yrs? Are you a steamboat captain or do you service rotary engines? Massive difference from painting those wheels. Looks great.
  14. I certainly don't remember the rear half of uncle Sam looking like a Honda Acty, but that's just me
  15. I wonder what Neville Chamberlain would've made of the Renault Espace mk2? If he'd seen the masterful blend of economy, space and utility perhaps he'd have had the confidence and wherewithal to realise appeasement wasn't going to cut it. One can only imagine the impact on world events had N843CMK been around a mere 58yrs earlier. I've got vague memories of @Unclefester throwing an ad up on FB immediately after he got it. I'm not judging btw, it's a second hand car and not a beloved pet dog
  16. Good news! The driver's side front has compensated for the guffed rear pivot bearing. Now it leans heavily to the driver's side rather than just the rear quarter. This photo was taken mostly level. Spring is in tact but putting some heavy load on that bushing. I'm assuming tired shock and tired spring but need to muster together some money for parts. Looks like this bad boy is gonna be parked up for a little while again. In other news there's potentially another near-scrap car coming my way in about a week.

    New car day

    Chodspeed. My shitey-sense is telling me that this one isn't a Volvo or a Subaru.
  18. I'd consider driving it to Newcastle in a one shotter. I'm supposed to be in Leeds with work in a fortnight and could combine it with that.
  19. What kind of humping has it had? Shit buzz man. Hope this hasn't dampened the spirits
