red5 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I'll get some pics for you if you like. It is rotten. I already put a jack through the sill/door cos the tyres were same as my FSOThere's a Triumph TR7 in my mates yard thats doomed. And an Opel Manta. And I guess the Granada Hearse and Limo but they are both for sale so may get saved. Not much hope for old hearses tho! TR7? Donor car ? Let me know... Please. Appreciated.

SambaS Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I was lucky enough to be taken for a spin in a v8 one last summer. Roof down - what a noise. Was fan-tastic! Snaked up the road through 1st, 2nd, 3rd. I was a happy boy that day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torsten2001 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 If anyone wants a low mileage Horizon I have a giffer spec 1.1 in the dungeon for £250! It's not likely to get scrapped! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lankytim Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 This isn't the one with a Metro rear window is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theorganist Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 This isn't the one with a Metro rear window is it? I don't think it was this one, I think it was a C reg LX model in metallic blue IIRC, I saw it on retro-rides. I nearly bought it but decided to go with the idea of importing a Renault 14 instead.

YugoLada Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 Last year a Lada Niva got scrapped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthonyG Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Last year two got scrapped then - my mate weighed a red K reg one in. The clutch had gone and it had been standing for four years in a Welsh field, hence the rust bug had bitten big time, front valance had just totally vanished. There's quite a few in France - they were popular there. What's perhaps more interesting - has anybody bought a new LHD one?, there was a guy shipping them over in 2011, planning to target the farming market for cheap unburstable 4WDs that don't get used on the road much.

Torsten2001 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 What kind of shape is this underground Horizon in anyway? pretty much as per the photos except the wheels are painted black, there is no spark apparently and it's dusty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HillmanImp Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 http://www.rootes-chrysler.co.uk/groupb-horizon.html Buy the giffer spec one off Torsten, dismantle it 'to do up like that rally one innit' and then sell on ebay 2 years later as unfinished project to a man with a hiab and an irish lilt. That plan sounds so good I might actually do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
