Jifflemon Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Have we had this one yet?https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Volvo-480-ES-Sports-Estate-1988/333625829209 £8.5k ? Rotten Arches, No MOT, Heater button bodged, no coolant, rampant mould and suspicious engine bay wiring?

I also know who the previous or 2 owners were. It’ sold to one of them for 800 quid. The trader seems to think it’s a DS or SM or something.

I seem to remember that one is usually on the forecourt, posed on those ramps they use for 4x4s. Since it's a car showroom, they'd probably try to sell me something rather than call the police. That would wait until they found out I had no money... ? Anyone above a certain age and an interest in BRC will probably remember the Simmonite sisters competing in (I think) Class 2, as it was back in the late 80s-early-90s? Their family's Land Rover dealership is quite well known, I believe. There are also rumours of a... house of ill repute located in the immediate vicinity, but that's a story for another day...

Datsun Sunny B12 estate "Fastback" It's worth that to the right person. The car is the dictionary definition of mint condition and I'd imagine the owner wants it to go to someone who will also really look after it. Will it sell for that price? It'll take time, but I reckon it will eventually. ProgRocker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoadworkUK Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 He's been in and fixed the price now. Rather more reasonable at £699. The urge to trundle round with an industrial vat of T-Cut is strong, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
