After that lot one for the Barretts of this world.

A very noice Sunbeam Speed 20, but with the wrong engine, probably done in desperation due to the lack of Speed 20 engines on the market. I would because it is still lovely.

BUT is it worth the money asked ?

$115,000.00 NZ or GBP 60,650.00

45K for a CX ?

A very nice CX, but 45K ?

Wrong gearbox too...

https://www.leboncoin.fr/voitures/1341708311.htm?ca=12_s

 

HOW much???!?  :shock:  :shock:

 

Jaysus, I know Prestiges are sought-after, but it's not a Prestige Turbo.

 

Don't show this to DD Classics in Kew; they'll think they let their "timewarp"* '79 CX GTi go cheaply at £25k.

Couldn't see that GTi on their website. Sold ?

My first CX was a series one 2400GTi that I paid a 100 quid for. Two new front spheres and it was mot'd and on the road :)

A few years later after an mot fail for mega rot I swapped it for my bosses GS Pallas. He carried on driving it for a good few more years

commuting between Swindon and Reading. Still with no mot or registration as I found out when I received a parking ticket from where he abandoned it when it finally died  :(

My Citroen binge on the tat thread unearthed someone wanting 2600 euro for some 40 year old tyres that may or may not have been to Senegal and back and a grumpy bloke wanting to get 3000 euro for a containerload of spares which he refuses to discuss on the phone, photograph or catalogue in any way.

If I were a medium, I'd hazard a guess that someone called Crispin and roll neck sweaters were involved.

 

"Are you there Crispin?"

Given the price of genuine 3 door cosworths, and the fact that I've always wanted one, I'd buy this if the price was right. I'd probably put a Ford V8 in it and make it very much look like a standard 1.3 base if I could find dangly mirrors.

I haven't got the balls to waste £5,500 on a 2.3 diesel and I'm clearly a bullshitting twat though.

 

 

*By right I mean under £500. LOL

I'd imagine the resale value of the turbo parts, 4x4 drivetrain, and maybe the dateless plate are what's driving the bid up to "11".

 

Nah. It's shill bidding by 2 of his mates.

 

Reg probably is worth something to someone,

Dirty money in, clean money out. Really shouldn't make it quite so obvious though. 3/10.

As much as that? I'd be putting it near 0.32%.
