Anyone Want to Swap for my Bluebird?

[Negative Creep]

Just throwing this out there as a possibility, since there seems to be a sales frenzy on here at the moment, and I'm getting itchy feet even though I have a space booked at RR Gathering. So does anyone have something they'd fancy swapping for my Bluebird? It's on around 76k miles and was owned by a 93 year old who used to have it driven to the MOT centre and back, then parked up for a year. It's a 2 litre petrol manual carb model with power steering and possibly the comfiest seats of any car I've ever owned. It's also incredibly reliable and has never let me down.

 

Tax until end of July and MOT until March. Brakes overhauled, timing belt done, cooling flushed and did an oil and filter change on Monday. Has a Lada Riva rear spoiler, upgraded speakers all round, stainless backbox since the old one rotted out, but it's barely any louder than standard. Loads of tread left on the tyres, and whilst the wheels won't be to everyone's taste, I still have the original steels and hubcaps. Only bad points is a bit of rust on the driver's door and faded bumpers, which is purely cosmetic, and the wiper mechanism is a bit worn so it clonks (but still works properly). Also for some reason it takes a while to get up to temperature even after changing the thermostat, although that's not really a problem this time of year. It's a genuinely great car, but I'm just bored of it.

 

 

 

In terms of swaps I'm pretty open to options, but would like something around the same age, reasonable on fuel, not red and not a Vauxhall or VW. It would also need to have an fair amount of MOT and not be a project. If I were to put if for sale I'd probably ask around £700 to non shiters, although an even better outcome would be if anyone has something cheaper and wants a part ex. Can't offer any money the other way though. Bare in mind my location as well and I don't really have the time for an epic roadtrip

How far away was his m.o.t test station? It would be a right arseache driving there

Can't have been far, since the online MOTs show it travelled 80 miles in the 5 years before I bought it
