Shite(ish) estate - suggestions

[Joseph]

That's my old one. Bought from Spottedlaurel of this parish, used as a daily for nearly a year, then sold back to him to use as spares for his collection. It was a great old car, surprisingly nippy for a huge car with a 2.2 engine, easy to work on, not bad on fuel, comfy, and drove like new despite having 200K on the clock. Cavernous boot, as you'd expect. Didn't handle badly either.

 

They are getting few and far between now though.

 

Small world! I did happen think that the car in the photo was a press shot, due to how clean and straight it looks! (Can't remember the website I got it off - but a good coincidence!)

Cheers, I'll be watching that. I've got a feeling that a rhd Ami might end up a bit pricey for me though.

It won't be super-cheap, but I doubt it'll go too silly - though you never know with Ebay.

And the same guy is selling my fathers old Dyane 4:

Was very solid and drove it myself for a while (and bent the drivers side doors) but I did also do the clutch and fit new pistons and barrels and redo the top end (or side ends...)

 

Slow mind...
