This makes me wild. This same Orion was seen advertised not 2 months ago for £4500 which in itself is ridick pricewise.

 

But £8250 for an Orion. An Orion on Momo arrows. How did they spend £30,000 on an Orion.

 

 

How could this have won a concourse at FordFair when its completely un-original?  I think he's a fibber....

Goodness me, is it April 1st already? I must have overslept.

 

 

£1.7K? Really, seriously? £250 at best and that's being generous.

err, in that case the only other Astra is parked up the road. what a dick.

As a square-eyed 9 or 10 year old glued to the TV I loved the adverts for the Vauxhall 'Club' limited editions on the transporter while Del Shannon's 'Runaway' played in the background. Little did I realise that these models will be so collectable in the 21st century.

 

Seller wants £4,750  :shock:  for this...

Does look very nice, however.

Did these things quadruple in value while I wasn't paying attention?

It's not even a manual, and there's no clear shot of the whole car amongst all the close ups. Bint's wearing too much too....

If I had the cash and it was in tip top condition I would happily hand over 24 Large ones for that 928!  :wub:

Check this bad boy out. 

 

Can't get the MSA to allow you to ride an actual pig on track? then try this - as close* as you can get to doing it for real

This guy reckons he's spunked £20,000 - and this is what he has to show for it? So you want a track day car, you buy an Impreza Turbo with 60k on the clock. you have a budget of £20k. You have a 'retired race car builder' on hand to give expertise, advice, possibly even hands-on work THINK OF THE FUCKING POSSIBILITIES. 

 

And with all that potential, you create this:

its time to take a long hard look at yourself. then reach for the gun and do the honourable thing...

Bugger me backwards - I have an unopened jar of Dunsters Marmalade in the cupboard (not made any more) I wonder how much that will be worth?

 

Feck all I suspect.

Vauxhall Carlton GSi with no tax or MOT:

 

DSCF0040.jpg

 

 

 

Bad bits - no tax or MOT, few issues with dash electrics but I'm sure it's just a wire trapped behind clocks, heater motors work, but need setting up, I have the 'How To' for these, headlining sagging behind sunroof, bootlid and rear spoiler, both bumpers need paint, handbrake cable is fubar (new one to go with).
I have no time or desire to get it back on the road, despite everything.
It was insured for a total loss value of £6500 4 years ago, but I know I ain't gonna get that for it.

 

Best offer over £3,500.

£1600 for a starter, anyone know what's going on? They also have others at £1500 and a bargain version at about £1100.

That is weird. They also think that ISO 9001 is a standard for car parts.

Conmen, and not very good ones.

I asked the question

 

Hi, is the price correct? Do you sell many? I want a 924 starter motor but the price more than my car is worth and approx 20 times the average Ebay price. Paul

 

 And I got the answer

 

The price is incorrect , but this is only due to our system waiting for more stock as soon as it arrives the price will automatically change back to the correct pricing. We may be able to offer another brand if you are actually looking for one of these?

Egay fee avoidance frenzy ^^^^

$_49.JPGA really clean old thing, agreed, ;low mileage, and has been living in a museum. In Hungary. Where it still is.

Hungarian valid documents. If required, registration can be taken over UK. The car is in Hungary, transporting five working days. The price includes the cost of the UK registration.

Uttler gobbledegook.

 

Unsurprisingly:

No it's not, but the goat-fondler who wrote the advert appears to be a Brummie. Kipper Tie?

 

Oh, ought to mention, it's £10,500.
