Astonishing, but it is a fabulous colour scheme. You'd be amazed that Landy collectors will pay for rarities. Rumour has it early Range Rovers have been selling for £30k or more. Not even the VELAR ones.

almost 20k? Someone’s been sniffing the LHM.

What the actual fuck? And he claims fully restored it could be worth £60k???? I want some of those drugs please. Anyone want to buy my Datsun Violet? It's only £130,000 because I've done a pro-rata against condition/rarity and desirability of that Vogue.

 

VERDICT: STRAIT JACKET REQUIRED

I sent that Singer seller a message asking if that price was right and that there's still several other out there, this was his reply:

 

pls find me another singer vogue with a factory fitted ato gear box im willing to good money if you cant then may be it why it is is wot it is

 

- whbonny09

 

I replied with:

 

Rarity doesn't mean £££'s sadly, I had a 1972 Opel Kadett last year that was show standard and one of the only ones left in the UK and that still struggled to make £1800, That why this Singer only cost you £1500 and your adverts getting posted on numerous car forums.

 

It's worth £1950 top dollar as the autos aren't popular, just some friendly advice.

 

which he's replied:

 

like i said it a nice car its like marmite you either love it or hate but it is wot it is. thanks for your opinion

I give up now, you just can't help some people.

This advert pretty special, the twat selling this for nearly £20000 is using the same shite photos from the ebay listing which he bought it from for £1500! It's the biggest load of bollocks I've seen all year on ebay.

 

I sent him this....It is said that there are probably about 200 of these still on the road in New Zealand...there were at least 4 minta's in the town where I lived..u sir do not know the planet u are dreaming on.

"It attracts so many people we have had to move it away from the road side to avoid any accidents"

FULL SERVICE HISTORY!

 

ALTHOUGH THE ODOMETER READING SHOWS THE MILES THE CAR MAY HAVE DONE WE CAN NOT IN ANY WAY GUARANTEE THE READING OF THE MILEAGE TO BE CORRECT

 

So why don't you use the "full service history" to verify the mileage instead of trying to deceive prospective buyers into thinking that this car hasn't driven over 200,000 clicks?

The exhaust is starting to look a little bit grotty in places on the 240 and I will probably need to change it before winter. I found this new old stock one on eBay For £10.90 BIN and £15.95 for postage.

I think I'l pass this one up, my own is way better than this pile of scrap.

£25 for a holed exhaust?

I've got a Polo head in the shed with all the valves mashed into it, I'll get a fortune for that!

Does the Granny come complete with sick bags in the seat pockets?

 

Dash looks interesting though, but speedo and fuel are really about all you need! Oh, and an oil light!

Perhaps the Granada pilot has exposed a niche market for 'Comfort Dials'

Sorry but he has turned a nice clean and 80stastic dashboard into shit.

I know he was an Aircraft engineer but so what? Im a Telecommunications Engineer and I havent slung half a dozen Dial phones and Trimphones all over the dash of my Scimitar.

Thank fuck he didnt work in the sewers.

I remember spotting that when it was in Rochester. Still, what an awesome paint scheme

Looking at the Granada dash I actually quite like it. Looks like a decent job and not wildly obviously an after-market one. Yeah that number of dials is probably a little OCD but it looks a tidy effort.

I wonder if he's fitted an airspeed indicator and altimeter? Also, chrome arches. Why? Not just on this car but in general.

For 9 grand I might want original Ford mats and not some carpet tiles from X-S stock discount warehouse.

So will he take £40k, hand over half that to some garage and have it restored for you?

Or is it being done now and he'll take £40k when it's done?

The first is stupid, the second is REALLY stupid.

 

Offer him £39500 but only if it's ready for collection this weekend.

For 40k I'd expect 5 mint, delivery mileage Singer Vogues.

There's two of these sitting in a shed over here, both autos, both ex taxis. I'll let the owner know he's sitting on £80,000..........

Spot the difference:

£75,000

 

$T2eC16R,!zcE9s4g3JJwBRipMCHSPg~~60_12.JPG

Hint: One has an MOT and a new exhaust, and a dog.
