At the risk of starting a hideous political debate - I'd say this was a manifestation of one of the EU's sillier ideas.

 

It is indeed, they roped something in to level out their emissions statistics as they only make GTs etc usually. Something like that anyway, don't quote me etc.

 

The only place I've ever seen one was parked on the waterfront of Lake Geneva - it was in a disgusting yellow colour, like the one you got on early E46 M3s.

Exactly - you weren't allowed to sell cars unless you had an average emissons across your whole range below a certain value.

To me that Vitesse and CX don't seem overpriced, expensive? Yes, but if they're as good as they sound both probably cheaper than starting with an average one and trying to get perfect, plus with the CX you've got the one owner thing.

My way of deciding if something is overpriced, is to say to myself " If I could afford it, would I pay that much?" And for both of those the answer would be yes .

As for that 4 owner no service history 600....... Maybe not so much.

cast boot hinge from a Range rover classic complete with old hinge pin rusted in place. drilling out the pin is possible but at the cost of your drill bit sharpness.

 

At best "mates rate" + postage

 

from these guys £49.99

 

Verdict : scrap prices are on the way up

I'm back. but with a Volvo this time. they don't come better than this 1989 480Es and at nz$5200.00 it is well priced. There is most likely absolutely no corrosion anywhere.

Me again, found a very early DS19 (1957) for sale. I might be able to buy this as it will wait for me to save up due to the current asking price. Hopefully it will be reduced some day too  :-( . Take a look .

And the reason I was looking at Citroens. 

The ex Stuno BX is for sale. Repaired by its current owner, who bought it as an insurance write-off from me.

It is for sale for NZ$3000, just a wee bit more than insurance paid out. So I an still happy.

1972 was always a convenient cut off point until recently for Free VED

 

But now that genuine early cars are worth some cash the ved fakes are popping out every fucking where.

Fitted with a 3.9 engine from a later Range Rover. It starts first time, sounds great with no smoke or knocking etc and drives well. 
 
I am advertising this car for a friend who has no eBay account but please phone him anytime on 07947 530173 for any further information or to arrange viewing.
